escape needed This is an aspect of your eating disorder. You already have some coping strategies for dealing with the food behaviour sides of your disorder, which work to a greater or lesser extent in different situations. How can you adapt and apply some of these coping strategies to what you are doing in terms of exercise. Hmm..coping strategies for food aren't so great, ...

I encourage you to change the subject when this comes up. The "fat talk" is not making anyone feel good about themselves, including your friends. I've tried saying, "You know what, can we talk about something else because I know this doesn't make me feel any better about my body, does it make you feel any better about how you look?" I know this is a bold thing to say, but I bet you anything ...

I knew I had to do it. I had to get rid of that stupid scale that was controlling my life. I lived without one for about four months when I moved out of my parents house....I only weighed myself once a week on Sundays when I was at their place... But I had started gaining and it was freaking me out so I did a horrible aweful thing and went out and bought a scale. BAD BAD BAD mistake and ...

DeltaGirl Could you explain more so I understand? She has set boundries between us as far as contacting. I do not quite get what a limit concerning the eating disorder would be. Sounds rather confusing for therapy of an eating disorder.

HANNAHKATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sorry you are struggling. I am sending many warm, gentle hugs your way. Do you practice positive affrimations? Will you? Try saying them outloud and decorating your room with them and try to believe them. You are going through a really tough time right now. Do you have support? The more support the better. It doesn't have to be eating ...

Multiplex That is SOOO awesome! I am really proud of you for being able to do this. It is such a big deal to be able to eat an occasional treat safely and be gentle to yourself about it. You rock out! There is no doubt you will over come the eating disorder.

You're not alone Toxic tears I have no pictures of myself for all the time I have suffered with my eating disorder, bar one that I can think of. It makes me so sad that when I am older I will have no pictures to look back on. It really is proof how ED's distort your body image so much. Even when I was at my lowest weight I thought I was so disgustingly fat I didn't want anyone to see me let ...

Not sure what I expect to get here... maybe advice or just to feel like I'm not alone. I have battled ED's for twenty years of my life. Only recently decided that I actually have one. I suppose I didn't decide I had and eating disorder because I have had periods of well and periods of not well. Right now is the strongest battle of them all. I had to reopen old wounds which triggered my ...

Hi all, I haven't visited this site in years, but I also have never truly considered myself to be recovered or in recovery. Now, though, I am at a point in my life where I am ready to leave this eating disorder behind me. However, I am having a really difficult time with balancing functioning in the real world and not becoming overwhelmed with depression or anxiety. I have a lot of ...

hey fishies. today, i had one of those days where you kind of get a little insight into yourself. know what i mean? a few people said things that are sort of interesting to me. the first was a friend of mine during a fight. usually, he skirts around the subject of my eating disorder as everyone does. but today, he looked me in the eye and just said "i can't trust that you aren't going to ...

I've been aware of BED since I was ten years old, that was over forty years ago. There is such pain in this. I've worked with OA, eating plans, therapists and God.Now, I believe that I can only be healed through God. There is a root disorder, something in my spirit that goes awry and I am in full blown addiction. I'm lonely, tired and ashamed. I just cannot connect with anyone, I know it is ...
