Hello,

I saw my doctor today and let her in a little bit about my eating disorder that has flared up recently. I feel too old to be struggling with this, and the last thing I need right now is more stress, but I am afraid that this thing will get in the way of me living my life like I want to. I was anorexic and bulimic, one or both, for most of the past 17 years. I had some periods where I was fine. I’ve been way way up in weight, and down too. But I am having some issues with bulimia now, and anorexia too. And it’s starting to affect me, energy wise, and some other symptoms too. My partner and friends are concerned. And I guess I am concerned too.

I am very worried that addressing this issue will take over my life. I am just starting to rebuild it after drug addiction and right now I want to focus on my strengths! I need to get a job and be healthy. So I am concerned that there will be a huge time commitment. I am also concerned about insurance coverage. My family will absolutely not know about this; I’ve put them through too much and it’s time to address this with myself, with my partner, with my friends I choose to call family.

I am just very scared tonight. I don’t want to get in over my head. But I *am* in over my head with my eating disorder. It’s getting silly now.

Thanks for any advice/support/suggestions.

We understand this is difficult. We can work around your schedule and walk with you through the entire process. If you want more information please call. Our staff are available to help answer any questions you have about treatment. The most important thing is that you take care of yourself.

Congratulations on your recovery from drug addiction!  Being familiar with the recovery process might make recovery from an eating disorder a little easier, especially since many facets of an eating disorder are very similar to (if not identical to) other types of addiction.

True, as you address issues that contribute to your ed, they may become more prevalent in your thoughts, at least for a while.  However, as you become stronger and need your ed behaviors less and less to cope, those things will start to fade and you’ll be able to enjoy life even more.

I’d say give treatment a chance.  You can always quit if you feel it’s not helpful, but you’ll never know if you don’t try it.

Good luck.

Well, I finally started at EP. I did the testing last spring and didn’t go back for the rest of the intake until last month. The summer was tough, I relapsed on drugs, my weight dropped very low, and I was completely manic, so I was in the hospital a month, then in treatment for mental crap and addiction for a month. Now I am okay but I know that achieving a healthy weight is only a small part of my eating disorder.

I am seeing a therapist once a week and a nutritionist once a week and I hope that’s enough. I am supposed to be looking into an ED/CD group but the chica didn’t call me back so maybe that’s a sign. I don’t know if I’d do well in groups.

I LOVE my therapist, he’s the best therapist I’ve had ever and I’ve seen my share. He is helping me look at the things I do from a different perspective, a really non-shaming perspective. And my nutritionist seems like a cool woman too. I don’t like the food logs but I am keeping up with them like I should.

I’ve only been there for three weeks but I already feel like it’s a really good decision. :)

sometimes we need therapist and dont be shy, I’ve try that and step by step that work for me.

I am a newbie here and just wanna say Hi to everyone. I am Crystal from Louisiana, US.
