I don't think eating disorder sufferers should be drawn into discussions of trans issues. The sad truth is that treatments for anorexia are a lot less effective than treatments for GD. https://twitter.com/bambii_booo/status/1347802471998095360 …

Contrast that with treatment for gender dysphoria: Trans ppl post-treatment live healthy lives and do great things! It sickens me that anorexia keeps being brought into conversations about GD, when anorexics desperately need a treatment that works as well as transition does.

Inpatient treatment for anorexia and bulimia is similar to drug addiction treatment- facilities don't share any sort of numbers as to their relapse vs success rate and are not really evidence based. They prey on patients and families, desperate for some kind of hope.

It's the exact opposite of transition related medical treatments, which are constantly under attack, forcing providers to provide more and more evidence that it works. Of course, this evidence is always ignored.
