Quote From: jennabeanI totally understand what you mean. I'll be 24 in a few months and I will have had an eating disorder for 13 years then. I've been hospitalized several times...once for 2 months. I've been through endless therapist, psychologist, classes, and group nothing seems to work. I wanted to try long term treatment but I can neither afford it or get it. I have had a seizure because of my eating disorder, I am no longer allowed to work, My doctors are having me apply for social security disability, I have heart liver kidney esophagus pancreas and ovarian damage, I have overdosed because of it, and became hypoglocemic, cut myself, and the list goes on...and yet I can't seem to beat this and it's starting to feel completely hopeless. I tried really hard to get the help I needed and to get better hell I had to gain 20lbs after my seizure...I'm 5'2" and I was 84lbs...now I'm at the point where I am just like I don't care...I may as well loose weight if I haven't been able to stop this..I'm just so tired of being sick all the time throwing up constantly starving myself I know you must be too....I just wanted to say I understand your situation. The work thing too. before I was put off work on disability I worked at a hospital...and everyone knew and all the talk and looks and bs got pretty old. I hope though you can find something that works. I'm just at a loss for what to do any more and feel like this is just what my life is going to be.
