This is a bit of a rant/getting things of my chest topic. I'm really sorry to complain so much but i just need to get it out...
I overdosed last week and I had to go to spend the night in hospital. I don't even know why I did it. The thing is my dad is now expecting me to get magically better and for the anorexia to just disappear. He's started trying to back me eat loads more food and when i don't he just says "oh. So the anorexia is still there." I've tried talking to him and he says he won't do it again but then the next day he's still doing it! I just feel like such a failure and now I'm really scared that my drs are going to put me into hospital.
Sorry for such a boring rant :-(
Stay strong everyone!!!

Hey,
I dont think we have spoke before but my name isJenny. I am so sorry u felt that low that you had to take an overdose. I have real issues with my dad too he used to shout at me all the time telling me to eat. He accuses me of lying all the time even though I am getting better and he cant understand I am getting better.You have a different problem with your dad though and I know how hard it is to explain to your parents cos you feel really frustrated and like they dont understand! All I can really suggest to you is that u stay strong and perhaps get someone on your medical team to talk to your dad maybe and try explaining to him that eating diorders dont just go away. I dont think my dad will ever be happy he can never see the positives in me eating a meal I think he is expeting me to eat * and then * he just does'nt get it.I think that parents just find it hard to understand sometimes.
Let me know how your doing hun and I hope I made sence.
