    • About Me

      I'm Barbara. I'm.. 23 now. I've been away for a while, but I decided it's time to return. I have so much going on. I want to get better, I want to get worse. I broke up with my boyfriend at the beginning of the year, I'm mostly over him but tired of being alone. My life is utter turmoil. I'm taking care of my mother, about to be unemployed, and facing the prospect of having to move away from everything I have ever known. I'm too screwed up for one person. If you remember me, get back in touch, if not, I need new friends. The kind that help me eat, not the kind that tell me to throw up the little bit that I did.

    • Close Eating Disorders
      Type: Anorexia

      One day, I decided not eating worked, not consciously but I made excuses to myself and hid the behaviors. I didn't admit it for years. I went from anorexia to bulimia to both at once then back to anorexia. If I'm eating, I'm eating too much. It was irritability and no people and self-hatred. Malnutrition & vomiting & obsession. I want to get better, but hate the idea of gaining weight. I was doing okay, but now I'm not. I know it's bad, but the thoughts are there. And I don't know what to do.

      Treatments

      Dietitian Consult Considering
      I haven't gone yet, but I'm working on the courage..
      Group Therapy Considering
      I need this, I just can't bring myself to "come out" and acknowledge it to others. Support is needed.
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      After I met my boyfriend, I stopped feeling the need to lose the weight and was almost back to normal habits, eating and sleeping. But I don't fit in my clothes and I've gained so much. I don't see bones anymore and I'm just freaking out. I'm afraid I'm falling back into my disorder and I don't know if I want to stop it or not.
    • Close Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

      Patterns, rituals, methods. I have things that have to be certain ways, if they aren't, I can't deal. My main factor is my eating disorder, calories, methods of eating, ways I eat, things I eat. People think I'm insane, sometimes, I agree.

    • Open Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      It all goes back to when I was a little girl.. Or once upon a time? Or I hate being myself, I go through periods of hating other people. I dislike touching, being with people. I hate being the way I am. One day, I'm on top of the world, the next I don't want to get out of bed. No one understands just how bad I am because I'm all smiles and faking it. But I'm tired, oh so tired of everything there is in my life.

    • Open Phobia
      Type: Agoraphobia (fear of open spaces)

      I hate public places. More than public places, I hate people. I cannot stand to be touched. And God forbid someone touch me when I'm unprepared for it. It's caused drama at home, at school, in my relationship, and in almost every other area of my life that you can imagine.What really sucks is I'm a full time college student, with a job, and with a highly-social boyfriend.I don't even want to go out in public anymore and no one understands.I suffer from social anxiety as well but it's connected.

      Treatments

      Acceptance Not Working
      I have issues letting go. Though it improves at times, there is nothing that makes it go away. Some days are normal followed by weeks or months of total irrational fear.
    • Open Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

      Result/side effect/comorbidity of ED.

    • Open Insomnia

      Lack of sleep for comfort issues and nightmares. Also again, related to the ED. Somewhat better with semi-normal eating.

      Treatments

      Counting Sheep Not Working
      HA!
      Music Somewhat Helpful
      Classical and calming music helpful, but not for long periods of sleep.
    • Open Healthy Relationships

      I'm single and confused. I'm not ready to be with anyone, but tired of being alone. I've moved on, yet haven't found the someone new.

    • Open Healthy Eating

      I've had several eating disorders, bouncing back from one to another. I'm recently "recovered" but having issues with healthy eating, proper eating, just general eating habits. I want to lose weight the healthy way.. And I just can't seem to do it on my own.

    • Open Food Addiction

      No matter which eating disorder you have, you're addicted to food. I'm currently eating far too much and I need it to stop!

    • Open Anxiety

      Yay Anxiety? Not so much. I'm tired of being anxious, I'm tired of being phobic, I'm tired of being antisocial and worrying about everysinglefuckingthing that goes on daily. I just want "normal" again.

    • Open Healthy Sex
