Congratulations on your recovery. It's one of the hardest things people can fight, something that the idiots trying to co-opt "anorexia" can't wrap their pudding heads around.
I'm so glad you're still here.

Thanks. I had it milder than most. It's frightening, knowing that it could have been worse.

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.
