Sometimes it helps to think of your eating disorder as something other than just EDNOS, Anorexia or Bulimia. Sometimes something more expressive (or abusive) is called for - something to help you stand up to it.
Also, there are names that your eating disorder likes to be called, and although they can feel quite fitting at our weakest of times, it should be acknowledged that by calling it by these, you are giving in to it!
Names Your ED Likes

Do you have any more ideas?
Yours,
The Anxious Foodie
