A chance comment from my new pain psychologist got me to thinking. When I was roughly between 16 and 20, I had the serious form of anorexia nervosa. Ever since then, I think I messed up my metabolism permanently, leading to my body shape the way it is now.

Also, I never completely processed the eating disorder back then; just pushed through it. I'm pretty sure there is residue there, from close to half a century ago.

Anyway, I reached out to the regional center, and will be doing an intake tomorrow morning to see if they can help me. I had asked my new dietician, but she currently does not cover conditions like this.

Fingers crossed for some new awakenings and healings!
