Yes. In fact, you remind me quite a bit of myself. I was always slender and actually fat. Whether it occurred to me or not, I did to some extent take pride for my thinness and fast metabolism. However, I think I misinterpreted a lot criticisms on this as being compliments. I always had on and off periods of eating issues. At a certain age, I got wrapped up in celebrities, fame and the rest of that gossip shit. Whatever eating difficulties and poor self-esteem I had before, became maximised. I had Anorexia but, I don't think that even I realised this fact. I obsessed over what I put in. I took pride in the concerns that my doctors showed, because to me it had somehow become my own secret inside joke. Then, my family ended forcing me to eat simply because they feared what the neighbours would think! I didn't get the proper help that I needed.
Is it normal for a child to be weight-obsessed?
