I Have Been Throwing Up Way Too Much Lately
Posted: 06-25-05 16:40pm

My bulimia started 15 years ago!!!!!!!!

I went years without doing it, yes, I did see psychologists about it

my current pschiatrist knows I have it.

He never prescribed me for any medication, just told me about how they are researching something now

anyways, more stress added into my life in a short period of time
have so many things going on.

I just brokeup with my boyfriend, who happened to be my best friend
and he has bipolar
and he had been flipping out on me

so I had to leave him,
can't ever see him again, because I do know the deftition of insanity...

He has been violent, and tried to leave me in the parking lot
when he thought I cheated on him, but I never did
he would have taken my purse, and I would be stranded
in the middle of the night

later, he said he was just talking crap, but that is just not acceptable
for he claimed he loved me so much, and I could be the mother of his kids
( I never wanted kids)

i obviously have problems with food, weight, and body issues
i have to get healthy, and my head straight.

Having kids I would eat all their snacks, I would have birthday parties
with 50 cupcakes , :)

ok bad joke. Ughhh

i have been throwing up way too much lately,
if I had the money I would go to an eating disorder clinic

my brother who has bipolar temporalily moved in here
and he is on new medication, and he is talking non stop, even right now
and I just want to scream, too much stress

man, my life sucks right now

thank you for listening, anyone who reads this, bless your heart
you are very kind

i am grateful for this board

everyone have a decent day today!

Hey hun, you know you can and will get through this. Unfortunally life can be caca at times and your not on your own there but remember that there are always better times to come and they will.
Just one thing about the medication, I would not recommend taking that because my friend who also had an eating disorder died last month because she had been on medication for many years and as a result a brain tumor formed and by the time the found it it was too late. Plus medication only supresses your feelings, you need to talk about them in order to help you deal with them and understand them.
15 years is along time, too long, I really think you deserve to get help, you need it and your life will be so much freer when you are recovered. If you can try and find a therapy place that have therapists that have had personal experinces with eating disorders because the place that I go to all of my therapists are fulling recovered from their ed but know exaclty what i'm going through and understand where i'm coming from, you know so I think thats the better one to go for.
I know it must of been tough to leave your boyfriend but you know yourself whether it was the right thing to do, you love someone for who the are and how they make you feel, you can't love someone because they need you or rely on you, thats not a relationship.
Perhaps for the moment you could think about just taking a break from relationships because really the most important relationship you can have is with yourself and then others can follow.
Learn to love yourself first and then you will be able to love others and you will allow other people to love you, for who you truely are.
Times are though but they will get better, they will but your not alone, your never alone ok.
I hope your day is going well, take good care of yourself
