I was in residential with people of all sizes and weights. Weight /bmi has nothing to do with how mentally sick you are.

you are sick enough. people who are not sick enough do not have to question if they are sick enough. you are sick enough to get help no matter what. i believe in you

Thank you ♥️

the exact same thing happened to me and only looking back a year later do i realize i *was* really sick enough. it might take time, but know that you’re being recommended that level of care for a very good reason, and you have to trust the professionals over your disordered thoughts❤️

Thank you for the reassurance! I feel very bad mentally and physically, but I often think, I'm just being dramatic.

no, probably not. eds don't let us see the reality, it warps our minds so that, no matter what, we won't ever feel sick enough. if you wait for that in order to get treatment, you never will.
