Therapist said I wasn’t bad enough for help

I am 34f and I went from one extreme weight to another I n about three years and at my lowest in Sept when I almost went to the hospital. I’m 5’1 and I was doing a reward system with food after I had some frustrating news at work and I stand to be better at my job. It wasn’t healthy I know. I was hospitalized in March for stomach ulcers and I finally started to ask for help in May. When I did my therapist told me that she was 5 foot and weighted less than me and it wasn’t until my period was gone or my organs were failing that I would be a candidate for help.

I am at a loss. It made me want to look more sick so I could be believed. I’m so wrong for all these thought I know. My sternum is showing, my face is hollow but because I have loose skin I don’t look like I am sick? And I keep going back to just waiting to stay sick since no one cares anyways. I just hiked for ten hours for the last two days and ate nothing and I want to feel bad but I’m just so angry I ask for help and she said no?

I am so sorry I just don’t understand. Even the hospital told me I had an ed but my therapist doesn’t think so?

Surgery approval!

I am having 3-4 teeth removed, 3 years of braces and surgery before it. I know this will be good for me but I am so scared. 34f and the joke men kept making on my dating profile was “do you ever close your mouth?” 😂 I legit couldn’t! I’m worried lowkey I will hate my face but I am excited minimally for straighter teeth. I can only chew with one side of my mouth since I was a kid and I never noticed it

Everything is moving so fast

I had my dentist app April 22 and they referred me for braces and the orthodontist recommended jaw surgery. I had my initial appointment Wednesday, added braces yesterday and I will have surgery in 1.5 years. It’s all happening so quickly and I’m so nervous. Does anyone have a similar profile?

They’re removing 2-3 teeth in a few weeks :/

Love/career

I am curious what my chart says about my career and love life? Single for 3 years and a lot of first dates that went nowhere. I also have had the same job for 8 years and I am wondering if I will ever achieve more?

Thank you so much

Extra info: 34f, separated with two kids. I had a long term relationship for 14 years with my ex

5’1 5 years worth of weight loss

It’s in the wrong order, left is newest right is oldest.

I am proud of my weight-loss as I have worked out consistently for the last five years, but I am struggling now with my back, I feel like it looks very “boy” ish and my back is the worst part of me :(
I started at 250 and have kept off the weight consistently since then so it’s hard to be vocal about this to my friends since they think I should just be happy to be healthy but I went from very big curves to boxy?

2023 (31)-2026 (34)

I started taking my health serious in 2023 and went from 250 (had two children) to maintaining a better weight for the last few years.
First two pics are 2023, third is 2024, forth is 2025 and the last two are within 2026.

I am getting braces in a month and jaw surgery in the next few years.

Mentally I have never been happier

Hello,
I have an open bite and will require top jaw surgery. If I only do braces I will never get a fully secure closed mouth so I am doing both the surgery and the braces. They’re going to remove two teeth, the fourth (canines?). How common is this? I am so scared but I can’t fully bite at all unless it’s on my left hand side back part of my mouth so this will be good for me.
