Yes I have this too. I have a binger and then a binger and purger and then also a restricter. My parts can go away for years. I don't know if that happens to anyone else. But boy was everybody happy when I suddenly recovered from my very serious, almost killed me, bulimia. Except that I don't even feel like I can own that or accept it as mine. It was like one day she was there and the next she vanished. And everybody was shocked why I wasn't in eating disorder clinics every other month anymore. I was skeptical and then I diagnosed with DID and it all made sense to me.

I still don't know what made her "go away". But most recently my binger has been out. She'll eat so much food and I feel so sick afterwords. And then I saw my doctor the other day and he told me I was prediabetic. She's vanishing slowly also. Now I have to force myself to eat. I have no more sudden urges to binge. It's so weird. But it seems like it takes someone saying "you're going to die" and the entire DID system believing it before the entire system takes action and stops the part from doing harm. I mean our systems are there to protect us right?

As far as writing in the ED forums, those parts themselves wrote in like the somethingfishy forum (for eating disorders) just fine, but it would be very very awkward for me to show up there and pretend to belong.
Thanks for this!
