    • About Me

      I'm just me, just audrey, just a teenager, just trying to make the best of everyday. I'm 17 and a junior in high school. Recovering cutter, type one diabetic, binge type anorexia....survivor. I have been suffering with eating related issues since I was 13, but it didn't become serious until about a year ago. I went to treatment from August to October of 08, but relapsed soon after I got home. I want to get better, but somedays I don't. I like to help people, even though I don't take my own advice. Don't add me if your not going to talk to me =] If you need to chat, just send me a message, I would be glad to help.

    • Close Eating Disorders
      Type: Anorexia

      I have been through the whole purging phase, although I was never a heavy binger. After treatment I though I was cured, but I immediately started restricting. I was in denial for a long time. I am now in treatment again. However, I am not ready to let it go.

      Treatments

      Dietitian Consult Working / Worked
      I just started seeing a dietitian a few weeks ago and so far I LOVE HER!! I am slowly getting better on the meal plans but it is far from perfect at the moment.
      Outpatient Treatment Program Somewhat Helpful
      I go to a partial treatment program during the day from 7:30 am until 6:30 pm. I have all my meals and snacks there.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I am seeing two right now. One at the treatment center I go to during the week and one outside of the center. I love them both!
      Residential Treatment Center Somewhat Helpful
      I went to Rogers Memorial Hospital. I was there for social anxiety, depression, and ED. It helped with everything except the eating disorder.
      Prozac Too Soon to Tell
      I take 20 milligrams once a day but so far I have had no effects. I might up the dose soon but my doctor is afraid of me getting a numbing effect from any more than 20.
    • Close Diabetes Type 1

      I was diagnosed at the age of 12. I have had very good control at times and very very very bad control at times. (not easy to control with an eating disorder) I have been on a pump for about 5 years.

      Treatments

      Humalog Working / Worked
      Humalog is the only insulin I am on. It is on my pump.
      Insulin Pump Somewhat Helpful
      its a love/hate relationship
    • Open Teen Anxiety

      I've always had anxiety issues. I used to get panic attacks, but my meds have taken care of that.

    • Open Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety

      I'm not shy, and I don't isolate or anything, but I get very anxious at school and when I go out to eat. I hate being around a lot of girls at once because all I do is compare.

      Treatments

      Residential Treatment Center Somewhat Helpful
      CBT helped a lot.
    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      Treatments

      Counting Calories Somewhat Helpful
      I don't count on days where I can't, but almost everyday I write down everything or log in to fitday.com
      Slim-Fast Somewhat Helpful
      It's expensive and my parents hate buying it for me but sometimes it really helps the hunger and is low calorie. Quite nutritional too.
