maybe you trying to be honest is your way of trying not to get in trouble and keep your loved ones loving you. like you don't want to hurt them. so even if you don't have masks, this can still be an issue in your eating disorder. and like you said you try to protect them by not telling them. thats a mask you could say. you probably fake a smile so no one will know. i mean there are other things like that that qualify
I think the fact that you had a lot to talk about in your support group shows how many other things are part of your identity other than this eating disorder.
****This youtube video is like a virtual support group???
@aNthRoVLOGERS agreed! I think our eating disorder wants us to focus on the numbers and ED behaviours, and when we do that, we get tunnel vision and can't see anything else. Good point.
And YES, youtube is the next best thing to a support group. At least, in my opinion :)
Two things.. One I'm very happy that you had a food experience, it could be hard to find a good group... And two wasn't that the piano song from twilight playing in the background??

I can actually relate to what you said about the masks thing... I'm a lot like you described yourself, so it makes a lot of sense to me :)

one day at a time, learn your triggers, learn your feelings, learn what brings them on and master your "self-harm".

@RavenBlaze Some days it seems as though my self-harm masters me. But yes, I'm trying. Thanks :)
