Thank y'all for your support. I too experienced sexual abuse, but took it to restricting rather than over-eating. I felt that it was my fault so I restricted like crazy and worked out before and after school, only eating dinner, and then working out more in my room. Most of it was punishment and then dissociation kicked in. I tried becoming involved in so many clubs, just trying to keep my mind off of the rape. My mom finally found out what happened and got me help but nothing worked until I was hospitalized. I just wish my body image would improve because I am so tired of having to worry and take other's opinions about my body. I want to be able to see the "real" me.
