Is it normal to miss being anorexic?

I don't miss it because I think I'm fat, or because I think I was happier then... I don't really know why I miss it.

I just do. I mean, I know it's not good. But is it normal for a post-anorexic person to miss being anorexic?

Is It Normal?

  • It's not normal to be anorexic that's for sure
    But it's probably kinda like an addiction. Once you quite smoking there's always going to be that little part that wants it and misses it.

  • I miss it too! I miss my bones and the way I looked in the mirror. Sure, at the time everyone thought I was too thin, but I thought I looked good, for a change... not just a fatass, like I normally saw myself. I have gained 10 pounds since being anorexic, and I hate my body. I feel soooo fat. I can still feel my bones, but I don't see them anymore, and that makes me sad. I wish I could be a healthy anorexic, but I no that does not exist. I guess my mind is just really fcked up.

  • Maybe you miss the attention?

  • I think the only thing your actually missing is the attention people gave you when you were anorexic.

  • First of all congrats on recovering ofcourse. And i think it is because of the control you had in the past, it has been a part of your life wich is gone

  • i can understand that. i was never really anorexic, but i could see how it would get to be like a hobby/ritual or something.

  • You probably got used to that lifestyle and now it's hard for you to change back.
