For context I’ve had an eating disorder since 2019. It was good for a while in 2023 then I got in a terribly abusive relationship. My ex liked how thin I was. He talked about my tiny little body and my bird legs. He’d brag to his friends and family I was the thinnest girl he dated. He commented if I snacked too much. When the relationship went toxic I felt out of control. And I wanted to do whatever I could to save it. So my bulimia came back badly. I started purging 5-6 times a day. I thought if I couldn’t do anything right at least if I was still thin maybe he would still love me.
I finally got out of that relationship last year. But I’m still struggling with bulimia today. As a result of all my purging I have a scar at the corner of my mouth. I used to have really pretty lips. And now I think I look like a freak. I’m on a dating website but all my pics are pre scar. Idk if a guy saw my actual face they would find me beautiful. It’s not overly noticeable but it’s noticeable something’s not right and I worry it sends the signal damaged goods.
