struggling with my body image today. I haven't purged in 4 months and I feel myself starting to slip. I don't love myself at all how am I supposed to expect someone to love me when I can't even love me?

      People will love you regardless of your views on yourself, it's just harder to truly accept that love and return it fully if you can't see that or why they would. That also doesn't make you less worthy of that love or any less worthy of personhood or self care. You should attempt at self neutrality before you try to hold yourself up to the standard of loving yourself. You are a person. You deserve to eat and care for yourself so you can stay as healthy as possible as all people deserve. Do not let your disorder or your insecurities tell you otherwise.
