I'm sorry you are suffering this.
Is there any chance you can get into some therapy for yourself? I'm not all that fond of therapists but have a referral in play to see one out of desperation but it will take three to six more months (Canada). Then i have to get assessed and interview the person and make sure they are not going to make things worse, as has has happened in the past.
It might be good to get the ball rolling NOW as it takes a while to get in to see someone.
I hope your suffering ends as soon as possible. Eating Disorders are tenacious buggers tho. I've been struggling with food for forty years now.
I hope we can both find some decent help.

Sorry it took so long to answer, I have been very tired recently. Yes I have been in therapy for ten years I believe, but recently started adding trauma therapy which has helped. Still struggling but did manage to eat some things although I am feeling weak most of the time. Thank you for responding and hope you can finally find effective treatment as well. I think it is self-destructiveness that is hard to get over in general so we gravitate towards these things naturally.
