Helena's eating disorder is telling us something more sinister

The intro scene in 2x09 was hard to watch.
When I saw Helena cutting the smallest pieces of her only egg, it reminds me of the huge disgust and desire to gain back control we can see in eating disorders.
And then, James "take them raw".
It hit me like a car.

We're truly at the beginning of scientific psychology thanks to neurosciences.
This show had the best way to illustrate complex psychological concepts (severance seems to be the conscious version of dissociation after trauma for instance), and there are many researches about the link between anorexia or eating disorders in general and incest or sexual abuse as a child. (I've put some links below, there are so many studies about that! !)

The worst part ? Sometime the abuse can be an incestuous environment without "act". It is called "moral incest" or "emotional incest".
Years of putting a child into an adult position, sexual allusions, intimacy violations... (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0222961718301685)

And I think this is what we can see with Helena and James.
Forcing an adult to work was just the tip of the iceberg. I feel like this season is all about seing the truly evil nature of Lumon (kidnapping, child labor, torture, murders...). And as always, Severance is about showing not telling.

This intro scene once again showed us Helena as the product of years of abuse of so many different forms.

EDIT : I'm not english native, and tried to express my opinion the shortest way possible. It is of course just my opinion and I always hope I'm wrong when I think I see the signs of an ED.
