      Sorry I did not respond to your chat. I was applying to another support group at the time and I sent a message out to someone in need of help. I did not want you to think I was blowing you off.

    • Close Eating Disorders

      I am obsessed with thoughts of food. I constantly plan when and what I eat. It is on my mind constantly. When I go to sleep the last thought is what I will eat tomorrow. I am at a healthy, fit weight as I exercise daily. I used to binge but I feel I am in more control of that now. I may have learned to control some of my actions but not my thoughts. They are constant. I literaly plan everything that goes into my mouth. I feel very restrained.

    • Close Migraine Headaches

      I have had migrains for 20 years. I am still searching for my triggers. I have tried and stumped both Western and Eastern medicine.

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Working / Worked
      Just began treatment about 2 months ago. My acutpunctuist was able to blunt a migraine and now I am taking herbs to see if they will help prevent future migraines.
      Aspirin Somewhat Helpful
      I used to take regualary to try to prevent. Unknown if it really helped.
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Not Working
      I can't find any particular trigger.
      Caffeine Not Working
      Actually seems to intensify the migraine.
      Imitrex Not Working
      Only helped for about 1-2 hours and then back to full blown migraine.
      Inderal Not Working
      The side effects were so severe it made the migraine seem like childs play.
      Relpax Working / Worked
      Helps to reduce some severity and duration but not always reliable.
      Zomig Not Working
      Didn't have any effect.
    • Open Healthy Eating

      I have been studying nutrition for a few years now and I love eating clean and feeling healthy!

      Treatments

      Organic Diet Working / Worked
      The more organic I eat, the less I can tolerate non-organic, processed food. I love it!
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      There is no substitute for a great workout. I could not live without my weights. I am probably a bit obsessed about it.
