Struggling with Eating Disorder and OCD

Does anyone else struggle with both an eating disorder and ocd? My ED has completely shifted from being body/control focused to feeling just right with what I eat or else I have anxiety. Like certain combinations of food cannot go together. If that makes sense. It’s exhausting :(

Yes. Cognitive behavioral therapy + Zoloft has helped me tremendously.

I just feel so insane for the way I am with food. It is comforting to know that others have the same thoughts. Even though I wouldn’t wish it upon anyone :(

Yes oh my goodness. But thankfully, when looking for therapist, they usually specialize with both 🤗
