About Me
Claudia is my name. I'm a 19-year-old student at ASU majoring in developmental psychology. Being the youngest of three, I've got two older brothers who are just brilliant. So I have a lot to live up to, but what I lack in book smarts I make up for in the ARTS! I've been described as quirky and eccentric, and that I can't seem to stop learning to play new instruments. Haha. I'm new to DS. Looking forward to the journey.

Support Groups
Close Eating Disorders
Type: BulimiaI am trying to beat the battle with bulimia. I can trace back problems with occasional purging to the 5th grade, but it became a serious habit 4 years ago as a sophomore in high school. Since then the disease has gotten worse, and the purging more frequent. Recently I've decided to try and change my habits. This support group is a stepping stone, and hopefully it leads to my victory over the obssesive self consciousness that has dominated my life for awhile.
Treatments
- Group Therapy Considering
- The first step is to tell my parents, whose insurance I need for beginning to attend group therapy. I am planning on doing this very soon.
- Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
- My boyfriend is the only other person who knows the full blown extent of my problem. When we spend time together he helps a lot as far as making me feel accepted and physically attractive; I don't think too much about my body around him. As far as the purging getting better, right now it is not; when I'm alone I am more likely to revert back to the bad habits. At least the thought is there that my perception of myself is showing *some* progress.
