Eating Disorders Support Group

If you want friends here on D.S i'll be your friend. Im always lonely and when im in public, i hardly ever talk.

i used to feel this way alot, until I got help... meds and therapy have helped me so much...

i feel way more connected to my family and friends...

this is a normal part of your illness... did they help u address it in treatment?

I know exactly how you feel. I have not got one single friend in the world.

I felt like this when I lost the only support I had. Well I still do but I have learned that when I feel like this to find something else to do to take my mind off it.

I found that my god send at these times are my animlas! I spend hour also on the net so when im feeling alone I come on here, I use chat sites like Facebook to chat to friends, or I will do some research on the net. I know its hard but unfortunatly we all have to do stuff we dont like!
I hated it when my SW left me but she had to go at some point!

TAKE CARE HUN

thanks popcorn. :) and its nice knowing others feel the same way too. therapy is helping me learn to begin to reconnect and adress the sense of abandonment and trust. but i am sure its going to be a long journey with lots of ups and downs.

Oh yeah, I've definitely been that way. My husband and I have a group of friends but they're really more his than mine; I also have lots of people I'm friendly with (like at work, etc.) but, again, no one to really lean on. Loneliness and isolation (often based on fears of abandonment) are big problems, and I understand 100% what you're going through.

I am willing to be your friend here On Ds I am always Feeling Alone and Need Friends Also

Hi, I am new to D.S. too. I completley understand what you are going through. All I saw was the number going down on the scale, but I was told I had a very disturbed body image. My eating disorder also put me into depression and I felt to lonley. But through it I met my best friend, who went through the same exact thing. If you can find just one person it makes all the difference.

awww, I deff feel your pain. I'm kinda in the same situation right now, but deff like others have said counseling and therapy are deff helping me to readjust. It's difficult, especially at first, and I'm having a hard time with it right now too, BUT it's DEFF POSSIBLE. I'm totally here for you, if you ever need anything or want to talk or anything. Hang in there. It'll get better =]

hon youve no idea, ive been feeling like that forever, i think in the end we need to like just be ok with who we are and do what we want to do, i don't know though cos we need support though and if you dont have that close by you need to accept it which is much harder. if you need someone im here, *hug*
