Re: Recovery Support Thread - February 11th 2009, 09:35 PM

im still failing...and im feeling myself slipping into depression...
im drained, all the time; i cant make myself get up in time for class; i feel sad/angry/irritated/apathetic all the time; im having trouble doing my class work because its hard to think; i hate myself, i hate my body, i hate my ED. i hate that i have to live with this. i hate that i cant stop myself, that i cant stop myself from binging and purging nearly every day.
i dont feel motivated to do anything at all. i think "today ill do some exersise" but i cant. i cant even read for very long anymore.
why cant i be normal...?

Re: Recovery Support Thread - February 18th 2009, 05:41 AM



A bit late perhaps, but I'm glad to see this thread was recreated! I'm here for all of you if you need me, via email or msn or anything. Support is so important for recovery, and you can't give up because of a bad day girls, you have to stay strong and find the control and reverse it and let it help you along.


The seventh of february marked a year recovery for me. i've been doing pretty good ,although I stumbled a bit knowing the time for one year was so soon, so I restricted at the end of january for a few days.
Keep in mind slip ups happen whetheryou are a few days in or over a year like me. We all have the relapses and the slips, sometimes they are bad, but don't ever let them make you feel like you have failed, because you haven't.

I got on the scale today and didn't punish myself. Still allowed myself to have a snack. I talked openly about my weight and some of my issues today with a group of friends, when they came up.

Hi,umm, how do you refrain yourself from purging? it's hard for me, because of the thought of all the calories in me that will turn to fat later.

Hey, Jolene. I just wanted to let you know that I think you'd get better responses if you posted a new thread--that way people know you're looking for support. Let me know if you need anything. Take care.

Hi!
I cooked dinner for me and my friends and did not get mad about it... I find it really hard to cook in order to follow my nutritionist directions and not have a b/p cycle when I do.
Have a good day today! Baby steps, right?
Lots of love to you all!!

At lunch, I recognized I was full and stopped eating. And I am proud because I stopped for the right reason

I'm actualy able to eat now without feeling really bad! Im on holiday atm so walking around ALOT, but Ive been able to have a little ice cream, and also a bit of caramel square and little bits of cookies as treats and actualy ENJOY them! I still worry a bit, but because I am doing a lot of exerising sightseeing, i am able to enjoy food...and because im on holiday its like a treat! I'm not sure if I will be like this when I get home though, but at the moment I am doing really good, im really happy!

I'm able to accept help and I'm able to learn that I'm not in control, that the ED is in control if I go back.

[I don't have an Eating Disorder, but I have been having trouble with my eating for a while - skipping meals, weighing myself a lot, feeling guilty, etc - so I thought I'd post here anyway. Is that okay?]

Today I ate my lunch at school - in front of people, too! - for the first time in a long time. And I didn't feel guilty, didn't even think 'you're fat'. It was great.

Ive recently had a "scale smashing" ceremony at the ED clinic I go to. The first few days were hard for me because I didnt know exactly how much I weigh...but now I've learned that numbers do not define self-worth or beauty and should not control your life/

I ate a semi decent meal for dinner. I didn't even purge it or have the urge to purge. Maybe I will beat this stupid thing!

I haven't purged in two weeks now even though I've binged and I'm having 3 meals with 2 light snacks in between (that's the average mediterranean diet). I have the urge of skipping meals, hiding and throwng food or just puke but I don't. I'm on recovery from bulimia, my next steep since I don't purge is to overcome binging, and then, the real enemy of mine: dieting thoughts. I know it'll take a long time, I know I'll put on some weight but I'll do what it takes in order to leave this hell

Today I ate in front of people who were not my family, and I ate it all.
