    • Close Eating Disorders

      I have had eating disorders for years. It started after I was raped in the military and had to maintain contol and I guess chose food. I don't hardly eat, then I eat normally. I think that when I get upset with something and feel out of control I don't eat and then I feel in control. It gets really frustrating. I like the sense of control but ...hate living like this the rest of my life. I never have gotten therapy for this, however, get therapy for bipolar. Glad to be here.

      Topamax Working / Worked
      Works very well. I feel like I will never lose control with my eating as I have in the past and keeps me "normal". 25 mg is all my doc will give me. She thinks I will get too thin.
    • Close Sexual Abuse

      I was sexually assaulted in the military. I have had problems ever since...PTSD and eating disorders. I have trust issues and relationship problems with men (due to past)...you wouldnt know..I am very outgoing and rarely have problems meeting them. I have one son and we live by ourselves. Im happier that way, for now.
