Motivation from this thread adn the belief that sharing stories can help, massively.

Why did you start being disordered about food? When? Did anything trigger it?

For me it was a mixture of wanting to be physically smaller so I was protected, and so I had an excuse to myself to fail. If I didn't get 100% on a test, I'd soothe myself by saying I had an excuse, I had Bigger Things Going On and that it was understandable I wasn't on top form. I think I just needed something to blame all my mistakes on.
