Thanks one and all for the replies. Since I dont know if I can respond to everyone individually, I'll do so in a paragraph or however many it takes. Here it goes. Before I begin, yes I do believe that body dysmorphic disorder could be considered as an ED. Most people with ED's see themselves the way they made their minds see themselves. I dont know if I'll ever see myself the way others do. Master is looking out for my best interests. That's perfectly understandable and reasonable. No, He isnt a professional, but He knows how to keep me healthy. His mother is a nurse, so I'm sure that He learned a lot from her. He has a minor degree in psychology, so He has an idea of what's going on. So yes, He is doing what's best for me... He's trying to keep my body healthy. He wants me to accept myself for who I am. And I'm working on that, one step at a time. I know that disorders dont simply vanish. This will always be part of me. I dont even know if it's right to say that I suffer from anorexia, since I'm at a normal, healthy weight. It's been two years since I went to treatment. Like I tried to state before, they didnt do anything for me. I got over this myself. Not only anorexia, but various other things that wont be stated here. As of yet, I havent disobeyed. I eat what He tells me to eat and when He tells me to eat. These thoughts have been in my mind since I got over 100 pounds. Have I done anything about it yet? No, but I've thought about it. Thinking about doing something and doing it are two different things. I've thought about it for months and thought to come to others for some advice. I havent tried to diet yet... nor do I exercise besides when doing so with Master, to prevent myself from getting into my old habbits. That should say something. My BMI is healthy. Find a calculator. If I got down to 95 lbs, I'd still be healthy. Look it up if you dont believe me. I do believe that I would be happy at this weight. Why? Becuase it's under 100 pounds. That's what I want. Someone said that if I got under 100 pounds I might not survive. I've been down to 70-75 pounds. I survived then, with no treatment, no medical care. I do have some side effects from it though. I didnt die. If I got down to 94 pounds, I wouldnt die. I know from experience what my body can and can not handle. Everyone is different. I also know from experience what being depressed and suffering from an ED can do to your friends and family. This is part of the reason why I havent started dieting. I dont want to put my Master through that. I'd rather Him see me healthy, then withering away each day, slowing dying. I've worked myself up from where I used to be. That should say something. LadySonelle, I like your idea and what you did for your slave. Maybe I'll bring it up with Master and see what He thinks about that, though right now, W/we dont have time for scenes. It would have to be done in the future. Thank you for keeping U/us in your thoughts and prayers, I appreciate it. And Kyami(that's a pretty name) what you suggested could also be tried. I can do that on my own, so no need to bother Master about that. I do eat healthy foods already. I have lists of healthy foods and what calories they contain, ect. But thanks for your advice. I have talked to my Master about all of this. He allows me to work out with Him as I've stated before. He gives me a list of things I can eat, which are healthy and how much of it I should eat. I want Master to be happy and I want to be happy so I can serve Him like He deserves. But I cant be happy with my body, until I like the way it looks. So, that makes me depressed. Anorexia, self-mutilation(cutting, burning, hair pulling, excessive nail biting....), depression, anxiety are all linked. I learned that when I was hospitalized. I dont self-mutilate, so no need to discuss that. I do want to do what my Master says, but I also want myself to be happy. I know that He isnt just trying to make Himself happy. So, it is about the health issues. I realize that. I know that therapy is important and have brought it up with Master. But I dont feel like wasting time and money that W/we dont really have right now, just to find someone who is compatable with me. It could mean a two hour drive each week and W/we just cant do that right now. Not with Masters job, nor with my schooling. It'd be wondering to find a BDSM related on, maybe they would understand better. If I told a normal vanilla therapist what our relationship was like, they'd probably think all sorts of nasty thoughts and deem me more insane that I already am lol. Once again, thanks everyone for giving some advice. I actually didnt expect people to resond. And I'm sorry that this is such a long read. Hopefully I answered everyones questions. If not, I'll try again.
