Im faling into a downward spiral of anorexia, again, for those that dont know i was anorexic and bulimic for 5 yrs i was in therapy for a year in 2004 but i stopped oging when she opened her own practice and didnt acept my insurance theni got pregnat and ive ben doing ok until now, THe naging thoughts are in my head constantly teling me how fat i am and how gross i look , I constantly stare at my disgusting body, im afraid to step on the scle i might break down and cry becuase of what the numbers say. Its like i can feel the eating disorder slowy creping back into my life and i dont know what to do. In a way i want itback so bad, livng off diet coke for days on end. 300 calorie days and feling light as a feather, i just posted it here because iknow you girls so well more so then the ones in the eating disorder forum. gah i just i dont know ifel lost and confused and i hate being fat.

i'm sorry you're feeling this way. sometimes i feel the same way, which is why i never weigh myself anymore incase it will scare me and i'll start dieting again. i know i have to be strong for william, so i put those thoughts to the back of my mind

I'm sorry you feel this way, it's never good, phsically or emotionally. Keep a strong mind about it. Instead of always saying negative things, say positive things. It's amazing how the mind works, and I understand it's hard, I've had history of depression and it's hard to keep positive thoughts. Mind over Matter honey.

you don't have to weigh yourself, and of course tell doc not to tell you. when you look in the mirror, say "oh look, that's ALL baby!" I do the same thing and I KNOW it's not all baby, lol. again with the mind over matter. I hope you feel better and remember, you look good not matter what size! (you should see some of the people I've seen *shutters* yucky) usually anyone under 200 lbs seems skinny to me Very

I am sorry you are dealing with this Diane. I think the best thing to do would be to go back into therapy.

I personally know how comforting the hold of an eating disorder can be. It's like running back to an old friend, and part of you wants it back so bad. But there are our daughters, modeling their ideas of body image, and self esteem, after what we show them. And no matter how little you care for yourself, you don't want this to become Jordans disease one day, so you owe it to her to do everything you need to to get help for this.

good luck

yeah i know, i was always afraid of having a girl becuaes of the eating disorder, i dont want her to mimic me and end up down that path. It just sucks being in germany, the only drs available are military ones, and i dont even think any of them are qualified in much of anything. Like i know i should talk tosomeone but then at times i dont want to. I think once jason is back it wont be as bad, i always do alot better and have more good days then bad when i am happy. Lately jasons been a buttmunch but he has his own stresses going on where he is at. but he should be back soon. I havent told him any of this i dont know if i want to, he hatd me like that. when we met i was still dealing with those issues.
