Well... Therapy went well... ♥ I am officially ED-free, though still experiencing some errant thoughts. ;0) I am tapering off my therapy... Whew-- I'll continue with weekly group therapy, but my individual therapy will be every two weeks now. And my nutrition appointments are down to once a month. Progress!! She said she's so pleased with how I'm doing, and I really feel ready. :) Things aren't perfect... I still can't touch pizza. ;0) But... Progress. ♥ I'm feeling able to take risks and trust myself more these days. I'm working through things. It's good.
Ifihadwings, I have been in therapy for about 13 months now. I started with a therapist in a private practice. Last spring I reached the point where I knew I needed more, and I switched to an outpatient clinic for eating disorders. My therapy is CBT.
Good for you Jen!! Life is full of challenges, but being free from the eating disorder will allow you to face them much more easily.
You’ve worked so hard…I’m very happy for you…maybe a pizza challenge is in the future??
HUGS…Jan
I'm so proud of you Jen! You have always been an inspiration! It's still hard and I still struggle with thoughts and my body is going through ALOT right now. But I can say I am free as well! It's been over TWO FULL WEEKS since I have engaged in any ED behaviors! :) I love you!!!
