Your Definition
An [eating disorder] claiming to be "Anorexia Nervosa" that objectively fails to meet actual DSM-V criteria due to lacking the required "intense fear of weight gain", and of not being medically "underweight". Tessorexia can be [distinguished] from "OSFED" or the Atypical Anorexia classification sub-type (which do not have the "underweight" requirement) in that a specific diagnosis of "Tessorexia" requires one to also meet four additional (non-DSM) criteria: 1) Seeking to further one's [social media] status, 2) Attempting to stay culturally relevant to one's Fat Acceptance and Body Positivity followers, 3) Appropriating "anorexia" from skinny pro-ana girls (since anorexia sounds sexier than "OSFED"), 4) Positioning one's self to silence critics by proclaiming one is a "recovering anorexic" in contrary to their Health at Every Size beliefs.
