Crazy Thoughts Posted: 10-21-05 20:56pm
I was just wonering, does anybody else
that has anorexia have these crazy
thoughts like if I see someone who is like
rail thin I get mad because I think I am
not as skinny even though they are so
skinny they look bad? Plus, I laugh
inside when I see a huge fat person. I
feel bad about this and I want to make
these thoughts go away but they are always
there. Does anyone know how I can stop?
I get all happy too when I see someone
pigging out because they will gain weight.
I know this sounds stupuid but I really
think that way.

disgusted even though I was once fat too

It Is Strange How I Think Posted: 10-25-05 18:42pm
I think a little bit different because I
am in therapy and only part eating
disorder but it sometimes combines
oddly.
I rarely see anyone who is significantly
thinner than me. When I do see someone
who I perceive to be thinner than myself,
I do not say anything to them about it
because I have had that done to me and it
is awkward and not helpful to either one
of you if the conversation goes like
this:
very underweight girl: you are so thin.
I wish I was as thin as you. I weigh
(low weight) and (perhaps gives a size or
key measurements). How much do you
weigh?
Less underweight girl: I weigh (heavier
weight). I wear size (or have bigger
measurements).
Very underweight girl: you can't be that
heavy. You are lying.
I have mentioned it to my husband though
about some girl being really thin. I
don't know if he is lying or not but he
has almost always said that that the woman
was heavier or the same size as me.
Having been the less underweight girl when
I was a little heavier, I know that it is
possible that he isn't lying. Often our
body perception gets messed up. I am
still completely confused about how it is
possible that I am sitting here in size 1
jeans that aren't tight. If I didn't
know differently, I would believe that I
wore at least a size 10.
Recently, it was revealed to me by my
husband and a relative who I visited that
I talk in my sleep (which I knew) and that
some of what I talk about is that I am
really fat (i had no idea about that).
That means that those beliefs are quite
deep seeded.

me look way smaller than how I see myself
in the mirror....I find myself fat and
disgusting......I think my eye sight is
messed up...Im 85 lbs....Ive gained like 8

I am going though the whole weight thing
right now with my mom. Shes doing the la
weight loss program and she looks great!
Serious she does she looks healthy. But
when we go out together she compairs me to
a woman who is double my wight and tells
me im fat. Even when I was in high school
I weighed a healthy 145. If I went below
that weight I would get deathly ill. But
when I was that weight I had my mom
constantly telling me I was fat and that I
need to suck my gut in and that I need to
put make up on or I need to do this or
that. I am 5'7" and now weigh 256. Im
concidered obesse. Yes this I know. But
I am working hard at this. I need to lose
weight and I need to be thin. And I need
to be perfect. But when I say this out
loud I just laugh at myself and tell
myself im beautiful. Its the inside of my
head that is telling me that I am ugly and
that no man or woman would ever find me
attractive. My boyfriend, soon to be
husband, has no clue that im hiding these
feelings from him. He just keeps telling
me I look great and that I am beautiful.
He doesnt know about the inside struggle
to be thin....
I know how you feel.
