Relapsing to old thoughts -
November 23rd 2011, 09:13 PM
This thread has been labeled as triggering, particularly on the subject of eating disorders, by the original poster or by a Moderator. The contents of this thread might therefore not be suitable for certain sensitive users. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.
I used to suffer ED tendencies like not eating for long periods or purging what I did eat, but I've been almost entirely free of that for the last nine or ten months, a little while after getting together with my boyfriend. However, lately my feelings are messing with my head, and it seem along with that comes the familiar avoidance of food. This past week I've been avoiding it - I don't like purging, my chest hurts terrible whenever I do which is why I stopped in the first place, but yesterday I couldn't help myself...
I'm scared, I don't want to go back into this. The thoughts never stopped, but I was able to ignore them and they got weaker, but now they're back on full. I want to stop, I really do, but it's like I can't bring myself to do so. I don't even know any more, what are you supposed to do when you're constantly arguing with yourself? |

You can just tell yourself over and over that you don't want to go back to the way you were and try not to do it no matter how much you want to I have never felt like that with eating because I love food and people need to accept me with the way I am and you should think the same way but if you cant help it talk to some one it may help I suffer depression and self harm and I have been safe for about 2 months now and I have urges to go back to the way I was but then I think about how if effected others around me and how it effected myself. You are strong and you can do it I have faith in you I hope this helped.

Itsokay to feel like this. I have been in your position and even though im on anti depressants and counesling I still have these thoughts. It will get better over time. Just think of everything positive and how far you have come for your recovery into a healthy life. You are so strong remember that. You can do anything, conquer anything. Stay positive. Stay Strong!
