Why do you feel the need to punish yourself through purging after you eat? Perhaps finding that out could be basis for you getting better.

thanks !!! that is a good start! yOU are so amazingly supportive.
thank you!

how are you doing today?

 

[Groovychick]

to all my girls.

You are more than welcome hun. I know how difficult ED can be and therefore aim to offer as much as support as I can. I've actually managed three days without purging so far, but its the weekend and I'm on my own . . . recipe for disaster. I shall do my upmost to stay busy.

BTW, feel free to PM me whenever you like.

 

[9babiesgone]

thank you groovy!! I love you for how supportive you are!!!

I am so tired and I think I have food poisoning which will just give me more reason not to eat. I hate that. I am just so sick to my stomach. uggh


how are you this evening or morning?? I dont know where you are located.

Hello ladies. I hope everyone is doing ok. I'm 12 weeks now and sick as a dog. My stomach really hurts and I'm so sick of throwing up. I don't want to do this by myself anymore. I feel like I need help. I have no control over my body anymore its driving me crazy. The lack of food and stress is really making me depressed. I just want to crawl into bed and stay there.

i dont have any decent advice.....just...hang in there? im same stage as you of prego and yeah im getting annoyed because 12 weeks now this MS/nausea business should really be stopping or slowing at least :-/
just want you to know the lack of control feeling? i understand...but we can deal with it yeah? (more hugs)

Hi hun, do you see anybody like a midwife? If so can you explain to them how you are feeling? x

 

[Sarah10]

And tomorrows cal total is worked out, god does this ever end.
I can't go to sleep at night not knowing what i can/can't have the next day written down, total cals etc, i told o/h about how i'm feeling today, but its a subject too close to home for him (probably shouldn't go into detail on here being public and all that) and he tried his best, gives me compliments but i don't know if it helps.

I don`t have a midwife. I had a therapist but now that I`m graduating I can`t see her anymore its quite the predicament. I know I can get through this though. I`ve come so far.

Am feeling quite lonely at the moment to be honest. And food always fills the void nicely. Its not looking good.

I Hope you can get thru this,b c I know you can.

 

[Groovychick]

I've managed to get through today, so hopefully tomorrow will be as good. How has your day been? I think a nice relaxing bath this evening is in order.

 

[9babiesgone]

]my day has been so tough, my autistic daughter has been out of control today, and my son has been trying to hit her all day, which sends her into a tizzy. and my eating is out of control. I have never felt this hungry before. and I have never binged before,

Spoiler

but I always feel liek I do when I eat regular food. and I am sorry I hope that doesnt trigger anyone. I feel like everytime I eat even the smallest thing that I am going to gain 50 lbs. I ate an michelina frozen meal and a few cookies, and I feel like I ate a whole buffet. and I Know I didnt but I feel like I did

 

[9babiesgone]

maybe I just dont deserve my kids. bc I just

Spoiler

purged again. I hate myself.

 

[Groovychick]

You are no less deserving of your children just because you purged. You have had a stressful day and have dealt with it in a way which was familiar to you; you turned to food to cope. This does not make you a bad mother. In relation to you eating a small amount and feeling guilty, it is your ED tricking you. You have the right to eat whatever you want and shouldn't be made to feel negatively over it.

 

[9babiesgone]

thank you! I am crying now bc my husband just came home for lunch and asked what is wrong. and I dont know what to say. I feel like a failure. I dont turn to food to cope. I turn to purging to cope. I never binge. I ate a normal lunch and purged. it sucks. I really just want to cry now.

I think Iam going to lay down and hopefully my kids will nap.

 

[Groovychick]

Food, bingeing and purging are all interlinked hun. And you are not a failure, just going through a tough time. Why not talk to your husband about how you are feeling? Even if he can't offer any advice, it often helps just to be able to share your feelings. Does your husband know about your purging? Am going offline for a short while now, but will be back in an hour or so if you want to chat more.

He knows about my purging but if he knew I just did it, he would be pissed and upset, and probably just say he is disappointed in me, and then be mad at me all day. so I probably wont tell him.

I just felt like you are were saying I binged. I am anorexic, not bulimic.
so. I dont know. anyways sorry if I came off wrong.
