I tried to stop taking laxitives, but the
holidays deff ruined that!! I felt bad
even being around all the food and stuff.
I didn't even eat alot like everyone
else,but ate alot of shrimp and still felt
horrible....Its getting worse I now feel
guilty when I eat healthy food like fruit
or veggies even when I workout at the gym
twice a day. Its like i'm afraid of food
now and if I feel full I turn to
laxitives!! I'm scared and feel
lost...Family doesnt help much either I
felt like a freak during the holidays
:cry: if anyone has advice on getting
off these laxitives or how to deal I deff
could use the help

Hey babe how are you going? Your post was
a while ago but I thought id reply. Like
any addiction laxitive taking is hard to
tackle and congrats that you are trying so
damn hard. I have binge/purge bulimia so
I know what its like to have issues with
food and stuff. Try to aim for something
like if you usually take laxitives after
every meal then try to not take it after
something relatively healthy - like fruit
or salad or something else you feel
comfortable with. Why do you think things
have gotten worse? Could it be your
eating disorder furthering? I hope you
are doing okay sweet xxx

Congrad's for trying to beat the habit
and try not to discourage yourself if you
did not do as well as you hoped you should
maybe try to reduce your expectations
cause beeting this is really hard and
relapse is all part of recovery. Try
little by little one meal at a time and
not all three in onw day or if you only
take them once a day try to reduce it or
skip a day but take little steps and try
not to do them all at the same time .
Believe in yourself and if you haven't
already maybe try to seak help from a
professionnal or somebody that you trust
have allies people that will help you with
it
yours trully
