    • About Me

      Teacher these days, e.d in sort of remission, at healthy BMI. Been in hospital for 1 year. Lowest weight was 4stone 3 pounds and real weight these days is about 9stone. Also have a pretty serious self-harm history that has been dormant for quite a few years but is still enough to stop me getting life insurance (the bastards). Quit drinking recently in an attempt to reclaim my sanity - seems to be working!

      Reading lots and lots about every thing. Trying to find ways to make life more interesting when I'm on my own. Playing the piano crappily on purpose. For the neighbours. Who keep asking me to stop...

    • Close Eating Disorders
      Type: Anorexia

      Recovering from anorexia and bulimia Lowest weight under 5 stone and was in hospital in The Priory(for a year). Doing well these days at a healthy weight. Getting married next summer and generally feeling good.

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
      Good. Helps you to look at your negative behaviours and find positive replacements. Works well along with conventional refeeding program and talk therapy.
    • Close Self-Injury

      Self-harmer trying not to. Eating disorder also trying not to. Done all the treatments, found therapy the only helpful thing (CBT and just talking). Also, very loud music helps! Teaching in Scotland now and with partner.

      Treatments

      Prozac Not Working
      Hated the "spaced out trippy" feeling but know it works for some people. Wish it did for me!

      I'm a teacher in the UK. Suffering major anxiety at the moment. First had symptoms of anxiety at 17 but got it under control with therapy. Seems to have resurfaced lately.

      Treatments

      Breathing Exercises Somewhat Helpful
      Use breathing exercises to manage panic attacks.

      Just been diagnosed as bipolar at the age of 29 after 12 years of problems. Been diagnosed with depression and anxiety since '97 but never really felt the diagnosis fit. Also have suffered from anorexia and self harm in the past. Oh, and alcoholism. Isn't life just grand...I'm a teacher living in the UK.

      Treatments

      Lamictal Too Soon to Tell
      Only beem on this for a few weeks at minimum dose. Gotta watch out for that rash!
