    • About Me

      **SORRY i AM NO LONGER TAKING FRIEND REQUESTS** I am no longer a sufferer - I am an overcomer. RECOVERED. Made new. :) I actually finally love Me! I started suffering from bulimia around the age of 16. It just grew and grew and between the ages of 19-22 I was at complete rockbottom. 2 years ago I got on board my road to recovery, and MAN was it a hard one. But every day is a day nearer, no matter how hard it seems. I recently gave up my job and fought for NHS treatment, which I managed to secure. All I can say is: Freedom is possible. Trust me, I've been to the lowest of the low, to the point of suicide, but there is Life. You just have to say Yes.

    • Interests

      Hiking and biking. Love it love it love it. Travelling with friends (always much more fun with your best friends), drinking wine, swimming (not at the same time), laughing, partying. I LOVE Al Murray's Happy Hour (TV show), even on the shittiest day that guy can make me laugh. I also adore the friends I have made here, they have given me my life back in abundance, and will continue to be a part of my life forever. Big kiss.

    • Close Eating Disorders
      Type: Bulimia

      I suffered from bulimia for almost 7 years, and after steadily growing greater and greater in its stronghold over me I hit breaking point almost 2 years ago. It has been a long road to recovery but I am finally free. And I mean FREE! It is possible. I promise you.

      Treatments

      Outpatient Treatment Program Working / Worked
      VERY helpful. I managed to secure a 20-week treatment programme which helped me develop new behavioural patterns with my eating. It was child-like and took me back to square-one, but when you've got yourself into such an extreme cycle, it's necessary.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I had a couple of sessions of counselling. It helped me uncover some issues I have, but didn't really get to helping with the bulimia.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Every single important person to me in my life now knows about this and the support has been amazing. Sometimes it's hard to try to explain, but once people know they will do their utmost to give you the love you need when you need it, and the space when you don't.
