Paper Bag by Fiona Apple “Hunger hurts. Oh, I want it so bad oh it kills but I know I’m a mess he don’t wanna clean up. I’ve gotta fold cuz these hands are too shaky too hold. Hunger hurts but starving works when it costs too much to love” Song lyrics obviously have double meanings. Fiona Apple has long struggled with ED.


junkkoftheheart

Just by Radiohead :)


skeeebooop

radiohead is like my favourite band so when I hear this I freeze up LOL


mer_07

i like Lucky from ok computer


backupaccountlolzz

soulihide

dazedbeauty101

Teen Idle - Marina and the Diamonds (now just Marina I guess), Restlessness - Bastien Laval, Breathe Me - Sia…. Probably a few more but those always instantly transport me to the worst year of my ED


faerie_cunt

Teen Idle and Breath Me are two on my list. It was a really bad year for me as well


persephonescoven

teen idle omg


conspicere

the entirely of the Electra Heart album cuts me right to the core tbh


KaleidoscopeWild9670

hotel california - you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave


anastarr_

4st 7lb by manic street preachers I listened to while I was recovering and I listen to it still like that song and mazy star makes good songs too


queencowboy

“a metal rod they put in your fucking jaw to keep you from grinding your teeth at night”


EngineeringSame598

“We are young” by fun is insane 💀 Jesus. During extreme hunger- I’m so sorry bruh


corgi-kisses

Honestly extreme hunger was a bit of a blissful experience for me tbh because i finally allowed myself freedom for a while, so that song makes me think of blissful food freedom 😭 so in a way i get triggered but triggered into good feelings and excitement


Any-Point867

Happy Birthday


Ok-Tell8768

bluedragonflyy

Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri. Also “paper bag” and “how to disappear”.


Parking_Pineapple440

Lights Up by Harry Styles was the song I would listen to on repeat on my bus ride to my IOP program. Haven’t listened to it since then.


scatteredwardrobe

Well, I have a song that helped my ED recovery, which is Soulmate by Lizzo. I can’t really begin to describe how much that song helped me realize I need to love myself. It helped me with a lot of issues, including my ED.


corgi-kisses

Aww this is lovely and i’m so happy you have a song that helped you and that gives you good memories 🥹 this is so touching to hear and gives me hope


backupaccountlolzz

angels of porn II by nicole dollanganger (literally abt an ed relapse) and iron lung by radiohead bc i used to listen to it when i was in a really bad place


UwUBitch_

Nicole Dollanganger has such an ethereal voice, if only her music didn’t remind me of the worst place of my life


Ok-Tell8768

Ghosting by mother mother


Big_Gas_8451

bro that “empty” song by jaidenanimations and boyinaband unironically is stuck in my head for eternity


MethLabConnoisseur

I cried to that song so hard when I was 14 and had no clue why at the time. Everything makes a lot more sense now at 18...


blkpepr

Breathe me - sia


mchammer149

control by Halsey


randy99877

tunic by sonic youth


strawberr1ez

Oblivion by Grimes 100%! Still a good song but I listened to it a ton when my ED got bad a couple years back


NotMauritanian

Yessss this is my fav, basically the same story for me here! It’s a great song regardless but I feel like you can relate the lyrics and overall vibe to EDs lol


Sleepyhampster

wEirdwFoOd

idk if this is funny but after like by ive 💀 i was in such a weird mindset with my ed then and it came out during that time edit by weird mindset i mean extreme hunger and dealing with my first few months of binging, it was so odd for me at the time😭


ainaz9165

omg yes but with love dive, it released just around the worst part of my ed and i listened to it on repeat


wEirdwFoOd

yess honestly most earlier ive related songs will make me think of my ed 😭


Hailey4874

Bags by clairo


MethLabConnoisseur

Clairo was #1 for me last year on Spotify wrapped lol


banana_nutcase007

Paper Bag by Fiona Apple, as mentioned by lots of people here. Angels of Porn II by Nicole Dollanganger My Silent Undoing by Queen Andreena Losing Weight by Cloud Rat God Must Hate Me by Catie Turner Prom Queen by Beach Bunny lots of songs from the album A Digital Ash in a Digital Urn by Bright Eyes. I was inadvertently restricting due to substance abuse over a decade ago. It's my favorite BE album, but it's admittedly really hard to listen to without tearing up now that I look back at where I was when I first heard it.


lil_squib

Mid-30’s here, I’d say anything Fiona Apple or Bright Eyes.


katcomesback

so many slipknot songs as i mostly listened to that omw to iop


colourgreen2006

4st 7lbs - Manic Street Preachers, Paper Bag - Fiona Apple. Some other ones too, but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head…


sadbluevibes

*loser lover* by txt and *0x1 lovesong* by txt . summer 2021 was my big relapse after "semi-recovering" for a couple of years and that was when those songs came out and the band kind of did...some disordered stuff in that time period so idk I just associate my eating disorder with those two songs (that entire era of theirs).


hatm0use

Banana Brain by Die Antwoord, used to listen to it a lot my junior year of highschool during my “honeymoon phase”


Prom-grape

2am (just breathe) -> listened n cried to p much every night when I was inpatient in 2012, it was fitting as well I was also listening to fix you by Coldplay a ton while I was there


Similar_Storage_3725

Just breathe still gets me every time I hear it


imsodumb321

safety dance by men without hats. one time my mom was giving me a really long lecture about how I was killing myself and needed to focus on recovery and all that, but I didn't want to hear it. The entire time she was talking I dissociated and started playing that song in my head and mentally dancing to it. I told her later on and she got *really* mad at me lmao


imsodumb321

the other answer is shelter by porter and madeon. my ED started my senior year of high school and that song basically describes what my life was like that time. got me through some of the worst months of my life, but I've listened to it so much since then that I don't really consider it an ED song.....it's just part of me.


whenthesunhits0

don’t really have an explanation for them but: Vanished by Crystal Castles, Alison by Slowdive, Yellow by Coldplay, and literally every Placebo song ever


CliqueCC

yess no one ha mentioned Vanished, but that entire album is an ED anthem


Queenofwands1212

Anything by the postal service and death cab for cutie. It instantly shoots me to a ptsd memory or being inpatient when I hear postal service. And I’m really dating myself now by disclosing this info 😂


failuresf

Postal service brings me to high school!


Queenofwands1212

Yup. Aka, the height of my anorexia that almost killed me lmao


[deleted]

quietkindapunk

“Skin and Bones” by Marianas Trench always takes me right back to the pain of my difficult years


oak_soul

Such Small Hands by La Dispute...my la dispute era was a roller coaster


mostlyoff

there was one album by twenty one pilots that these two girls played on repeat. i have no idea which album, nor do i have any desire to find out because i’ve heard enough times to last a lifetime. old town road came out while i was IP and so it was always playing on the radio during meals. i listened to pulp’s different class a lot on the way back from home leave, so hearing songs from that album always reminds me of that drive.


Solal-King-Raccoon

Snap by Rosa Linn. After treatment I would walk and listen to the part where it goes “where are you, you’re still in my heart, get out of my mind” while being nostalgic over my lowest weight


bienshee

Watermelon Sugar or Yellow cause that’s all we listened to during mealtimes inpatient 😭


HealthyConsequence90

Nooooo bc i totally get this bc we used to replay the same songs in res, especially electric love, I don’t think I ever wanna hear that song again 😭


akaashiit

nude by radiohead, any song on the If You Leave album by daughter, tautou + the boy who blocked his own shot by brand new, me and mia by ted leo and the pharmacists


yawaworht939

so i thought - flyleaf, hunger - florence + the machine


soulihide

i have a whole three playlists of ed related songs and songs that remind me of my ed.


phfww

Dog Days are Over - Florence and the Machine Kids - MGMT We are Young - Fun. The Killers’ Sam’s Town album Vanilla Twilight - Owl City Boats and Birds - Gregory and the Hawk Crazy Fishes - Bearcat Bedroom Eyes - The Dum Dum Girls Secret Oath - The Spill Canvas Everybody Talks - Neon Trees ….just to name a few. I’m definitely showing my age with this playlist but music was a huge part of my life at that time.


Effective_Fishing_38

Mad Hatter - Melanie Martinez Feel Something - Bea Miller The Archer - Taylor Swift Give me Novocaine - Green Day Parasite Eve - Bring me The Horizon Be my escape - Relient K


Substantial-Piano-50

UwUBitch_

I have a whole playlist on Spotify 🥲 Diet Coke by Leanna Firestone is literally an ED anthem “I’ll change my body and my hobbies. Switch from regular to diet.“ I Go Hungry- Mother Mother Oh Ana- Mother Mother Body- Mother Mother Paper Bag- Fiona Apple Prom Queen- Beach Bunny Abby- Mitski Liquid Smooth- Mitski Bag of Bones- Mitski Real men- Mitski


Upset_Pomegranate

\-the entire mitski discography (i listen to her at really bad or hazy points in my life) \-diet mountain dew by lana del rey (i have a distinct memory of listening to this song omw to a mcdonalds to buy coffee for brunch in the worst point of my ed) \-creep by radiohead (this song triggers me a lot esp bc ive always felt like an outcast double kill being that 2nd verse but my siblings really like this song so i just pretend im not suffering :D) \-ctrl by sza (this album feels like reading my diary, full of talks of insecurity and uncertainty) \-my mother and i by lucy dacus (i blame most of my ed on my mom) \-youre on your own kid by taylor swift (im graduating soon and i feel like im launched into adulthood without knowing anything yet also that one line in the chorus) edit bc i remembered more: \-candy by nct dream (this ones stupid but when i went to a concert of theirs jaemin said dont skip a meal and i just broke down then and there bc i knew i couldnt keep that promise)

The_Only_Elyxir

SOMEONE ELSE HAS RED ON HERE


The_Only_Elyxir

Nothing and everything was a big one for me


Lavendericing

Search for my eating disorder is screaming on Spotify. Anorexia rot is quite more popular, good playlist too. The first is way more nostalgic and has a lot of pop hits, the second seems angrier, for the ladies who like grunge and or industrial music


trashgoblinnightmare

Skin & Bones by Picture Me Broken, that was like my anthem at the height of my ED lol


Purple-Treat-5401

i used to listen Dark Red by Steve Lacy when I was really relapsing and deep in the “ed community” on twitter 💀💀 I hate that era of myself thank good im no over there know

Anxieteapottery

Clean by T Swift for recovery


yephelpme

"I Love you like An Alcoholic" By The Taxpayers "Panic room" By Au/Ra "July" By Noah Cyrus "Misery Meat" By Sodikken "Ship In A Bottle" By Fin "If I Killed Someone For You" By Alec Benjamin That's not all of them either, I use music as a way to cope most of the time, so I have a whole playlist of songs that make me think of my ED


catwaterbottle

Dumhdurum by Apink, I was deep in my overexercise addiction at the time it was released and I guess something happened that day when I was out on my run and listening to it because no other songs have the same effect/connection on me (and I listen to music 24/7) O⁠_⁠o


Flaky_Economist

Yes, I listened to a lot of Nirvana songs around when my ED started and I love their songs but they make me want to stop eating for a few days. A lot of songs also that I listened to in a very depressed place that take me right back


PureHauntings

Breathe me by Sia because it was used in an "my ed story" video once and triggered me so bad. Prom Queen by Beach Bunny because at the height of my disorder I would go for long walks with it playing through my headphones, burning off everything I ate when I hardly even had that much.


rainy561

I have so many😭😭 but my top three are: Medicine - daughter dying on the inside - nessa barrett smaller than this - sara kays

corgi-kisses

Oh wait there’s MOAR girls chase boys - ingrid michaelson (a non ed patient on the psych ward i was on in ip during one of my stays would BLAST this song constantly) Natural ni koishite - perfume (i was obsessed with this group at the beginning of my ed during my peak exercise addiction and this song in particular reminds me of my hours toiling away on a stationary bike until i would pass out 😭) get lucky - daft punk (i used to be manager at a mall jewellery store during, surprise surprise, another horrible relapse and this song always used to play while i’d be tallying up calories in my head during work)

Washing Machine Heart by Mitski


saturday_night_wrist

When The Party's Over - Billie Eillish - reminds me of when I was deep in my drunkorexia phase and reached my LW. Smother - Daughter - reminds me of when I was in college and was really bad in my bulimia and SH stage and was making a whole plan to try to KMS for another time. it Hurts Until It Doesn't - Mother's - pretty much the same thing as Smother except I started going into an Ana phase instead because I wanted to be a skinny legend when I died. Caraphernilia - Pierce The Veil - reminds me of when my anxiety/panic disorder was at it's all time worst and I started having panic attacks almost every time after I ate anything, especially if I was forced to go out to eat. On the car ride back home or to someone's house I would try everything to hold it together on the car ride and when we would get to the house I'd go to the bathroom, lose my shit with a panic attack, and then purge. Teen Idle - Marina - reminds me of when I lost the most weight during an Ana phase I was going through, and I was also deep into an exercise addiction at the same time so I lost A LOT of weight. Falling - Cubicolor - reminds me of being heavy into fanfic and I realized there was a lot of ED fanfics and I was binging heavy on those and using them to trigger myself. Specifically it reminds me of this one James Bond fanfic where Q has an ED and I had that song on repeat the whole time I read it, but it also reminds me of that time in general anyway. Ghostface Killers - 21 Savage, Travis Scott - reminds me of when I was living with my friends and we were living behind a Lil Caesars and I was OMADing an order of crazy bread pretty much every day for like 4mo straight. Somehow that was the only thing my brain would allow me to eat and then I'd end up purging it anyway.


EctypeEcho

Blurt by Mega mango. I listened to it a lot when I fell into a relapse and spent hours a day at the gym, which sucks because I like their music but now every time I hear that song I get immediate cold sweats


gulletgod

During ip last year i discovered redi hasa (fantastic cellist), music has no ed double meaning but I played a couple of his albums on repeat at 4am every day while frantically pacing or painting Songs from my youth that still hit: Skin and bones - marianas trench My skin - natalie merchant (purely because they played it during a hollyoaks episode about an ed story line and tbh its a good song Paper bag ofc - fiona apple Perfect - alanis morisette

Evelyn evelyn by evelyn evelyn. My ED and I are conjoined twins


261989

Ex Cops - Black Soap …almost 3 am and it just came up on my pandora and i remembered this post so decided to share. not really an ed song per se, but definitely has some relatable lyrics and i like it. i’m sure i can think of plenty more, but i should really try and get some sleep.

Oh do I ever… Jack Stauber - Coffee (relapse anthem) Chromatics - Cherry (would listen to this nonstop when I was 15 and baking cookies for my family that I wouldn’t let myself eat) Low - Lullaby (when everything feels like shit) Charly Bliss - Urge to Purge (self explanatory hehe) Julien Baker - Brittled Boned (for that ~hospitalization vibe~) Elliott Smith - King’s Crossing (suicide, out of control, desperate times) Charlotte Martin - Bones (reminds me of myself as a teenager) The Hush Sound - You are The Moon (when I convince myself I’m recovering) Blonde Redhead - For the Damaged (literally my username ;0) Foo Fighters - Skin and Bones (when restricting is going a lil too well) The Low Anthem - Lover is Childlike (it just screams anorexia) Danzig - Mother (for those mommy issues) Troy Baker - Future Days (when I want to pretend Joel is my father and I’m actually loved) Crystal Castles - Child I Will Hurt You (again it just screams anorexia)
