The diagnosis, I know right? Like dying for it to officially fall into the anorexia category? When I was in college, I waited until I knew I would have that anorexia diaganosis before actually seeing a therapist about the ED (the DSM guidelines for anorexia vs. unspecified were quite a bit tighter on the weight side back then as in you had to be below a BMI of 18 and I believe also no period for females for a certain time period, 3 months at least maybe?). And in the end, like an anorexia diagnosis is so glamorous or special or something as opposed to bulimia or ED unspecified?
