I've been in the process of converting for a few years now, and while being an antizionist has always felt alienating, it's been extra difficult this past week. I need to be fairly involved in my shul as part of the conversion process, so I can't be as invested in some of the more grassroots, non-affiliated jewish communities right now. Even the zoom morning minyan that I've been part of for over a year, which has been my daily ritual for grounding and mindfulness, has been difficult to show up for. I feel weird around my sponsoring rabbi, there's no space for this kind of perspective, and I'm nervous he's going to push for me to buy into zionism as part of my jewish identity. I'm deeply and passionately jewish at this point in my process, and there's no turning back on my need to complete the conversion journey, but it's so much harder than I expected. Any other jews by choice who might be able to offer perspective?
You will never have a real eating disorder. You have no angst. No delusion. No compulsion. You are a skinny person twisted by self-improvement and health into a crude mockery of true thinness.
