Mirror Triggers in Eating Disorder Recovery

镜像触发因素是饮食失调恢复的众多触发因素之一。对于饮食失调症的人来说，两个共同的主题是对脂肪和负面的排斥或distorted body image。Recovery includes adjusting our thoughts and feelings around these two, in spite of eating disorder triggers.It’s important to note, however, that no two people recover exactly the same way.Last week we talked about weight gain during recovery and viewing ourselves in the mirror (如何处理饮食失调恢复的体重变化）。One person told me that that they couldn’t look in the mirror because it made them want to cry.This made my heart hurt because it’s an honest, raw, and legitimate feeling.Many of us have experienced this feeling, myself included, and it’s a source of deep sorrow.So, how do we keep moving forward with mirror triggers in eating disorder recovery?

确认您的感受和镜子触发饮食失调的恢复

首先，至关重要的是要承认我们的感受和触发因素是合法和有效的（精神疾病验证：我相信你）。When we’ve committed to eating disorder recovery it doesn’t mean that we’re going to like it, especially at first.There will be times when we want to go back to our old patterns.There will be times when we miss our eating-disordered body, despite the fact that it was unhealthy or even destructive for us.We will miss our old life, even if it was killing us.I know we all know what I mean.

It’s Okay to Be Scared of Recovery Triggers

恢复是可怕的，因为这是一个全新的过程。我们正在放弃曾经如此拼命寻求并试图继续处理的控制。可以承认它很烂。老实说，可以说我们对自己的身体感到恐惧，或者面对我们一直在塞满，挨饿或扔掉的情感东西（What The Mirror Shows Me in Eating Disorder Recovery）。

It’s Okay to Mourn the Loss of the Eating Disorder

可以哀悼饮食失调的丧失；因为毕竟，它确实有目的。在那个时间点，我们觉得我们可以保护自己免受世界的侵害，这是最好的方法。我们并不愚蠢。我们只是选择了一些可以为我们提供舒适，安全，控制或填补的东西，我们在困扰时期寻求。也许我们正在抓住稻草，而饮食失调是我们的手指拉动的障碍。

The eating disorder has been a close, intimate friend, andnow we’re saying goodbye。可以哀悼失去朋友，并记住我们选择走开的原因。这种关系不再为我们服务(Eating Disorder Recovery: Getting Better and Losing Friends)。If we continue, it will destroy us mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.It will take us down, to the grave.

处理饮食失调中的镜子触发器的恢复

Although we share a common pool ofeating disordered criteria, every person is unique.To the person who can’t look at their body in the mirror without crying, maybe mirrors trigger you or don’t feel like you have a safe space right now.没关系。Start your recovery where you feel comfortable and begin to expand that comfort zone (Body Image and Acceptance in Eating Disorder Recovery）。也许您可以遮盖或删除房屋中所有的全长镜子。也许您的康复突破将更加集中在您的体内感觉，而不是与您在镜子中看到的和平相处。

There are many ways to love our bodies that have nothing to do with how we look in the mirror. What are a few ways that you could爱惜身子，还是感觉良好，与外观无关？
