" I know exactly the way you feel. When the scale topped over 200 pounds I freaked. Then I got notice from my doctor to get my diabetes under control. I stopped eating almost entirely. People on this site tell me that you can't do this for very long before, one day, you get hungry enough and then you binge.

I know all about the guilt, anger, frustration, and shame that goes along with eating something. I haven't been eating for a while now, either. I live near Seattle and there was one ED clinic near me. I'm going to that now and a support group. There may not be a treatment center near you but there might be an ED therapist in your town. Actual inpatient treatment centers are really not all that common and great travel is necessary. In fact, there are none in my state. Try going to www.nationaleatingdisorders.com They have a list of therapists in your area.

Feel for you though. "
