Is it weird to crave/eat weird things instead of "actual" foods?
14m
I have anorexia b/p sub type, and recently my parents have told me they would send me to inpatient if I don't eat at least twice a day. The thing is, I get EXTREMELY bloated if I eat traditional foods and I hate how sick and disgusting it makes me feel. I hate feeling full I need to feel empty or I genuinely feel suicidal. Recently I've found a trick around it, I've been dry scooping like>!1000 calories of !<protein powder. As disgusting as it sounds, I genuinely enjoy it, and for some reason unlike usual where I give myself an inch and go a mile with eating then purge so I stop hurting, I don't feel the need to binge. On top of that I can't stop drinking little bits of light maple syrup, its so good and I don't feel full. I think maybe I crave those things due to a deficiency in some kind of nutrients, but idk. Anyone know if this is just me being weird and I need to stop or if this is normal?
