Caving Risks
Is it weird to want to become anorexic?
I am 5’3″, 50kgs and I feel like a cow. I want to lose more weight but I can’t seem to do it. Sometimes I get this intense thought in my head that I won’t eat anymore. I eventually always cave in and eat something when I get too hungry and I know the risks of eating disorders. I can give other people advice but I can’t seem to do it for myself. Why do I feel so fat? And why do I feel the need to weigh less?
One reason may be that you feel a subconscious need to distinguish yourself in an undeniable way (i.e., thinness, illness) from your twin. Being “special” is also sometimes equated with being ill (eating disorders are an illness) – being “special” and finding an identity are important tasks of adolescence. Rather than distinguishing yourself from your twin and establishing your identity in a negative way – how about find a POSITIVE way to show that you are YOU (separate and distinct from your sister).
