"Closest I can really come to PTSD, really, in terms of the flashbacks, nightmares, etc" --
Well, from some stuff I've read, PTSD doesn't always mean flashbacks, I don't think. I think it can also be that a whole lot of mental and body energy goes into avoiding the traumatic memories, and this can bring on lots of different kinds of behaviors and symptoms. Plus if the trauma happened as a kid, all that anxiety gets kind of imbedded into the body, don't you think?
I wonder also if maybe your therapist doesn't want to 'go there' with you in focusing on the anorexia, since you've been so agitated?
