So I don't feel ready to tell my parents about my ED yet; but I confessed everything to my best friend. It was amazing especially because she revealed to me that she had had issues with food and body image and stuff like that in the past and she could relate to everything I told her. She really wants to help me through it, and I'm actually excited that I have someone to be there for me. It was hard, I cried and felt horrible at first but I did it. :) Sonrisas
sonrisas....I'm glad that you reached out and shared this with someone you can trust. What is the next step? Are you going to seek professional help?
Please keep writing and share more about what you need in terms of support...take care...Jan ♥
Well i'm leaving for uni in a few days and i have convinced myself with the help of my friend that i need to start the recovery process because i'm at the point where i'm sick of dealing with my ED and having it rule my life. With that said i think i'm going to go to the uni clinic and get checked out. Hopefully from there they can refer me or get me going... i'm scared but it needs to be done. :)- Sonrisas
Good choice Sonrisas :)
The best time to catch an ED is now, BEFORE it controls your life. It may not seem like a big deal now but it will only get worse. You may think you're in control of eating, but that's just the ED deceiving you, it slowly becomes stronger.
Catch it now before it gets too strong hun. You don't deserve this. You are beautiful

Thanks Paige it means a lot. Most of me has succumb to the control my ED but there is still that little piece of me that cries after i c&s or b&p. I cry, but for that moment I often just think of what i do and get scared that It will last forever because i hate it. I hate feeling this way and I don't want it to last forever but I can't let it go on my own. I know I need help and my friend is behind me to support me and help me be courageous enough to take the first step and see a doctor. I will do this. I can do this...we all can.

That's a great attitude to have! :)
We're all here for you too <3
