Hating your ED

Have you ever just wanted to be done with your ED so much, but it feels so incapable of beating, so you consider dying instead...

I've been fighting this for so long, and people are starting to give up on me. Maybe I'm just not cut out for it. Maybe this is my life, and if this is it I don't want it.

i feel like i should just die constantly, since besides my boyfriend, no one's ever seen beyond the face of my ED and down into all the bullshit i go through. it doesn't matter if it doesnt kill me to everyone else, so it feels like i have to die for people to of realized my feelings.

not really that i hate the ED 'cause it's clearly an emotional crutch, but i hate the symptoms and i hate not mattering.

I just feel like I'm trying so hard to beat this and it's just not going to happen. People are starting to give up on me. And if people give up I thinkI'll lose all hope. And if this is how my life is going to be then I just don't want to do it anymore. I'm tired. I'm tired of fighting.

I feel like the heavier I am, the more I like it. When I am bigger, I think "ED is gonna save me from this fat misery". Once I do thin down, I think, "wow this kinda sucks"
I'm not even underweight or anything. My health isn't in the best shape but I'm functioning. I cried into a bowl of 1/4 cup of ground turkey today because no matter way I lose. If I eat I'm not good enough, if I don't eat I'm not good enough.

i absolutely hate it but at the same time it's comforting i don't know

i think i'll probably take my life sooner or later instead of living like this it hurts

i'm hurting others because i can't cope with all this, i don't think my life is worth the pain of others
