Hello Nadia,
I have been following this thread since your original post and have refrained from contributing until now to consider everyones replies.
My own thoughts on the subject of ED's is that I think we have to be very careful about the "self-labeling" of a disorder that concerns our relationship with food, and how that can potentially and detrimentally impact our physical and mental well being/health psychologically, and where this self-diagnosis can be harmful as a belief-system which may or may not be true.
It does seem rather strange to me that you have only just realized that you have this disorder, despite having discovered fasting over 10 years ago, and where its symptoms are most definitely marked and distinguishable from just a case of anorexia for example.
Having said that, I do not doubt the accuracy of what you interpret as an ED, but I would be inclined to seek professional help as to its validity in your case, and any possible solutions to what can be a very disabling and potentially life-threatening health problem.
You are quite right of course, Fasting is not the answer to ALL health problems, and especially if this concerns our psychological/emotional relationship with food, and where the causes of ED's have not been proven to be of a genetic origin but more in the way of emotional disturbances from our backgrounds.
I wish you well and hope that you do resolve your health problem.
Regards
chrisb1.
