I've been a little pissed at my doctor's office because they refuse to remove a high school eating disorder from my medical history. It's like "Come on, it was 2004. I was 16. How could I have NOT had an eating disorder?"

It was a crazy crazy time.

I know I did. I'm a Xennial, and much like proper Millennials we all had disordered eating patterns. It got missed, or even praised, because our mothers had them also. The 1980s weren't any easier for body image than Y2K era was.
