Can’t/won’t cook?

[@susanacristina7454]

I realized that when I started my eating disorder, I started to COMMAND the kitchen. I started recovery this year. At first, I felt like helping my mother cook, but I knew it could trigger me. But I kept thinking about helping her, because she was doing everything alone. After 8 months, I went back to helping her. I saw an improvement and I no longer control the quantity/quality of the food, but I still like to cook. 😊

I don’t like cooking either. But I do like other people cooking for me now I am better. I find cooking just boring and a chore. I love baking though 😁

I feel the same way about garlic! So I bought a garlic press from Pampered Chef that doesn't have to have the garlic skin removed first (other than the very outer layer of the whole bulb, because who knows what has been touching that 😂). It's lovely!

I used to cook a lot when I had ED, but now that I'm recovered I hate it😂😂

I do not like cooking either. And do not get on with all sorts of self-care, such as resisting going to bed. Or resisting stuff I want to do. I suspect I have demand avoidance.
