thecaloriecat's Journal, 13 September 2012

Perhaps I'm fooling myself with recovery. I mean. I've eaten every day this week so far, which is a success! I've had carbs, even though I've been ashamed to log my foods(still trying to get over the shame of eating), and I didn't throw up. Which is also a success.
But I'm compensating in a different way. Laxatives. Too many laxatives. Meaning I'm still purging. I guess I've got to take it one step at a time, but I'm starting to wonder whether it would be better for me if I fasted and restricted more and completely gave up purging (both vomiting and laxative abuse), rather than eating a little more than usual and still purging.

I don't know. I'm trying so hard. I can't cope with my recovery weight gain and this is what's driving me crazy. And I can't cope with the feeling of food inside of me.

And truthfully, the only reason I'm eating is because my mom's home and not working for a few days, and she's basically emotionally pressuring me to eat. And I want to keep her happy regardless of how I'm feeling. hate it.

Have you seeked councelling for your eating disorder? It truly sounds like you are really struggling with this, and I hope that you are able to find your journey down recovery smoothing out. Good luck and take care of yourself.

Yea! That's way to much to cope with on your own. Many people do recover with help, although you may always struggle. I feel for you.

Oh yes, I've had psychotherapy for years and even went to Inpatient Treatment when things got very bad..I'm trying to recover and for some reason, no matter how many people I see or books I read on self help...it doesn't work. I think it's something I'll always have to deal with on my own, somehow. I'm trying, and thank you guys xx
