Hello. I haven't been on here in a while but I used to come on a lot. I have had a roller-coaster of a year but the past few months my eating has almost 'normalized'. At first it had some really positive points, I was able to go and visit friends and had the energy to do things I had a passion for. But lately each day is a fight between eating for the energy and concentration and giving in to the thoughts. I have gained weight and I feel like I look horrible. I know that looks don't really matter and no one is bothered how I look but I can't help the way I feel. I feel so low today and I don't know what I want. Part of my wants to avoid the real world but part of me really wants to be a part of it. I have lived with this for so long. My new psych doesn't know what to do to help me. I left the ED clinic, counselling, and stopped all my medication. I feel like literally no one understands me and I like in a different world from everyone else. Thanks for letting me get this out. I am here if anyone wants to talk about anything. I am 21 btw and have had an ED and other mh problems for 7 years. Clem. x

Hiya, just read your message. I understand what you mean and how you feel, I know that it's such a battle in your head. Part of you wants to get better, the other part doesn't. I went to a Ed clinic too. Ask yourself what's more important, what do I have to get better for. It's hard I know. Because you get frustrated because you feel no one really understands. Here if you want to message me back. Charl x

Hy Charl, thank you so much for your reply. Tell me more about yourself? I do have a lot to get better for which does help as motivation but at the same time it is very frustrating because it is affecting everything I do and it just feels like I will never be free of all these thoughts How are you? Clem. x
