Anorexia and trying new foods?

Hello, I’ve been struggling with anorexia for about two years now.

Still not fully ready to recover, but I know I’m disgustingly underweight and energy-less, lethargic. The idea of gaining weight scares the —- out of me, and I feel terribly out of control if I add a pound. But I’m trying to start eating more and more without the help of a dietitian, so I can stand on my feet at least, and I’ll try to make more progress from there. So please don’t copy/paste the causes and consequences of eating disorders from wiki and tell me to “get over it” like everyone does…

I just wish for a few suggestions, foods and drinks not too high in fat or caloric content, but something that can help me to “get started” maybe, other than raw veggies and fruits, something with a new taste to it, and not expensive.
Thanks for any help!

Are we living in an age of behavioural sink?

Quote: “Notable conditions in the behavioral sink include hyperaggression, failure to breed and nurture young normally, infant cannibalism, increased mortality at all ages, and abnormal sexual patterns. Often, population peaks, then crashes. Actual physical disease, mental illness, and psychosomatic disorders increase. There are eating disorders; in human populations, drug and alcohol use rises.”

** Dale: Infant cannibalism is often a metaphor for infanticide.

Eating disorder?

My best friend has a eating disorder and its called ednos and its like being not fully anorexic or bulimic, but in between. I was just wondering if anyone else either has one or knows anyone who does because I want some advice on how I should help her? Her mum and dad know so she is getting help, but Iwant to help like when she is at school and stuff?

These explain what it is and symptoms etc:

Compulsive eating disorder?! Help?

I looked up compulsive easting disorder on wikipedia and i got REALLY FREAKED OUT
cause every single symptom listed there, I have!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compulsive_overeating#Signs_of_compulsive_overeating

I mean I knew I had problems with food and weight etc, but I didn’t think it would be something like this, but everything I experience, etc., is on that list. Here is my question: Is this definite list – proving I have/might have a compulsive overeating disorder? OR is this a coincidence? OR does this prove anything cos I heard the exact details of this condition are in debate?

For extra info to this: I have also been told the following are also signs (by mates): cravings, stomach pain, intolerance to heat and cold, headaches…

Again I have all those!
