I don't think there's such a thing as a mild case of anorexia: if you are built in such a way to get trapped in that loop, it's a hard fight against overwhelming compulsions. There are cases that are caught and treated faster, and more resilient personalities who can (re)build parts of themselves to keep the beast at bay. Don't sell yourself short for making it out alive.

Good point. I'd be in the resilient category I guess, haha.
