    • I’m With You

      From fluteserenity September 23

      Yeah, most def, it's been easier. The problem was, when I kept something in the room, it lasted 2 days tops. Even if it was like, 3 boxes of breakfast bars... that's what led to my first binge on campus... well now it's easier. Going well. I have my first group therapy session today at 3... a little nervous, but very, very excited!!! :) Keep me updated on your progress, Hugs,
      ~Olivia

      From fluteserenity September 23

      I've actually just gotten rid of all the food (that's mine) in the room. Just cant handle it at the moment, with the transition etc... I have gum and suckers type things, but that's it!

    • Moment of Peace

      From fluteserenity September 20

      I'm doing okay - having trouble with the social scene here... hopefully I'll find my peeps soon. Doing pretty well with food - I've been between 1200 and 2000 cals since the 9th, which is a good little run for me. :) I just have 7 lbs left to lose!!! I can't believe how close I am, I just gotta stay focused now ;D
      Let me know how you're continuing to do. Love and hugs,
      ~Olivia xoxo

  • Goals

    Goal Completed on Oct 15, 08
  • Support Groups

    • Close College Stress

      I'm actually in high school now but I wanted some advice on college admissions and I also had some questions about various things.

    • Close Eating Disorders
      Type: Bulimia

      I have the non-purging type of bulimia. Not many people know about it, but I basically will eat normal to a lot of food for a few days and then really restrict for the next few days.

    • Open Depression - Teen

      I believe I have a mood disorder. I fluctuate between normal and depressed moods with two complete cycles a month. I am here to get support for the depression part of the cycle as well as help those who have depression. =]

      Treatments

      Valerian Working / Worked
      I have only been taking it for a little bit but it does seem to improve my mood slightly.
    • Open Self-Injury

      I started cutting two years ago, but I stopped. Sometimes I do it when I am really upset, but I feel really ashamed. I am here to help anyone who needs it and find support for myself when I need it too. Feel free to talk to me anytime.

      Treatments

      Squeezing Ice Somewhat Helpful
      It worked a little but not really. I find it more helpful to throw the ice. It lets out anger and doesn't break anything. ;)
    • Open Multiple Personalities

    • Open Shyness

      I hate being so shy. school makes me so nervous. I can't walk down the hallway without being tense.

      Treatments

      DailyStrength Working / Worked
      i like when people talk to me on here
      Pets Somewhat Helpful
      cats and fish are cool =]
      Self-help Not Working
      people keep saying to talk to people, and i do try, but it doesn't help hardly at all.
      Valerian Working / Worked
      This is very good in the first few weeks of use, however after a while it didn't work for me. It is definitely worth a try, thought. So if you have any questions about it Id be glad to answer them for you.
    • Open Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety

      I've been really shy since I was little and it has escalated as I have gotten earlier. I'm fine online but you can tell when you talk to me in person.

    • Open Physical & Emotional Abuse

      My mom emotionally abuses myself, sister, and father. I'm still trying to come to terms with it but I am starting to realize the impact it is having on me.

      Treatments

      Music Working / Worked
      I listen to it when I am upset.
      Poetry Working / Worked
      I write a LOT of poetry. Its one of my favorite things.

    • Open Immunizations

      I got the gardasil vaccine on 5/19/09 and passed out and had a little seizure. I also had a possible psychotic episode within eight hours. I am wondering if I should take it again and am coming here looking for advice.

    • Open Pet Bereavement

      My 19-year old cat is dying of liver cancer. I am 18-years old so I have had her my whole life. Whenever I am sad I always pick her up and hold her. I don't know what I am going to do without her here.
