Things I forgot about being in the depths of a restrictive ed while in recovery (feel free to add your own):
How much lying is involved (and that it can genuinely hurt to lie to your loved ones so much)
The ✨️bowel movements✨️ once you do eat something e.g. explosive diarrhea that is extremely painful
How excruciatingly exhausted you are all the fucking time
That it goes hand in hand with my depression and I just bed rot for days on end
DISGUSTING and I mean ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING breath
Crying even though you stayed within your calorie limit for the day
Instant regret after eating ANYTHING
Constipation turning into liquid shits
To be continued....
