That's a tricky question because ED thoughts and OCD thoughts are so similar; in fact, many people will have both disorders simultaneously.

In my own experience, I haven't really had "intrusive" ED thoughts as much as a constant obsession with food and thinness. And when I say "constant" I do mean every waking hour of the day and not only at meal times, although the thoughts become worse at meal times... But my exercise and meal rituals are incredibly OCD-like.

Of course, this is only my experience. Please keep your nurses informed and take care of yourself...
