Eating Disorders

F50.00 Anorexia Nervosa Restricting Type

Calorie Control Freak.

Straight talk

You turned eating into a math problem and winning means disappearing. Control feels safer than nourishment even when your body is begging for help. This code shows up when control and hunger get into a long, exhausting argument and control keeps winning. The hat does not comment on your body, your calories or your weight; it just feeds your head some warmth. It is for the part of you that is slowly learning you deserve more than feeling cold all the time.

What the doctor says

This diagnosis is used when weight loss is achieved mainly through dieting fasting or excessive exercise and there is intense fear of gaining weight plus distortion in how body shape or size is experienced. The diagnosis focuses on restriction, low weight and distorted body image. It does not show the coldness, dizziness and constant mental math that come with living in a starved body. The hat adds a tiny amendment: you deserve warmth and nourishment, not just "discipline."
