Hi. I've had a non-diagnosed eating disorder for around >!one year!< now. It started because I wanted to lose weight. I did lose it, but in a short amount of time. However, I then had to gain some weight to continue practicing my sport. The thing is, I didn't gain all the weight back. I just gained muscle. I barely have any body fat (no period for >!7 months now!<).

I'm not in the best time of my life now. That made me want to starve myself again. But the thing is, I know I'm thin. When I see photos of my sickest it wants to make me recover. But now I just starve as a way of... Coping with things, I guess?

It's confusing. Does someone feel the same way?

Hey!

I’m going to do the WISC-V soon and I’m feeling a bit nervous...

Has anyone done it? What kind of exercises or questions should I expect???

I used to have moderate to heavy periods, but I’ve had amenorrhea for about 6 months due to anorexia. I'm still training if this changes something: competitive swimming, 6 days/week, aprox. 3 hours in the water plus gym.

I’ve read some experiences where people say that when their period returns after amenorrhea, the first cycles are heavy, even to the point of needing medical attention.

I’m not sure how common or typical that actually is.

Searching about it I read it's often exaggerated but... Why would people lie about that?

I’m curious about real experiences:

When your period came back after amenorrhea linked to was it heavier, lighter, or similar to before?

Did you end up in a hospital?

Just trying to understand, I guess.
