Falling Back Into My Disorder After Having My Son

I've been on your position. I like to refer to my eating disorder as something I am in remission from. I believe it never goes away but it does get easier. When I was fully in my disorder I spent 100% of my time consumed with it. As I got better that percentage lowered but it is still there. Eating disorders are like habits. Hard to break. The idea is for me is to try each day and forgive myself for the thoughts and behaviors when I do slip. Beating myself never made recovery/remission easier. It's not about BEING better. It's about being able to say " today was hard, but I will try again tomorrow." The will and desire to try is health to me. When I am deap int disorder, I don't care enough about myself to try. Reaching out on here tells me you have the right mindset. Not every day will be easy. Not every day will be perfect. It's about waking up tomorrow and trying again. I hope this advice helps you.
