hi monty-girl. I have never heard anybody talk about it either! It's good to see it out there. I'm glad you posted it. I don't suffer from an eating disorder but if it weren't for my mom, or somebody taking care of the food issues, I would probably hardly eat...and for the same reasons you describe. I feel too detached from my body most times and it's just another symptom of that disconnect, like with emotions or memories etc. I can really really understand how that would fuel an eating disorder! Are there times where you feel more "hooked up" that you do eat better? Great post..thank you! helped me understand why I never want to cook or feed myself...and that's been going on for so many years I just thought it was my apathy or depression but this made something click in place.
