a Relationship Can Help You Recover From An Eating Disorder Posted: 04-13-07 18:24pm
Hello. I had an eating disorder in
college. It was caused by peer pressure
(as strange as that sounds now to admit).
I came across an article that speaks
truthfully about the experience. It also
recognizes the important role your
significant other can play in curing your
ED.

I would love to hear your feedback.

I wonder if anyone else has been
influenced and swayed towards recovery
through their relationships, as mentioned
in the above article link. For me,
relationships were key to both letting me
become anorexic and for curing me.
Looking back I can't believe how swayed I
was by peer pressure. But, it happens.
Please let me know your feedback on the
article's emphasis on looking towards your
relationships in life for guidance.

Well, that can be good or bad... I t
depends on how your deal with it and if
your boyfriend knows about it or not and
if it does how he deals with it...
I feel when im happier , with someone or
something i do better then being alone. So
i think they can help. But if your hiding
it from your significant other i think it
would just get worse.

I really hope that people with eating
disorders CAN be helped by their
significant others. My girlfriend is
struggling and I hope that I can help her
