Eating Disorders Support Group
Eating disorders are marked by an obsessive need to control the intake and/or purging of food. This community is dedicated to those struggling on the road to recovery. Join to discuss your experience with others and find support. Get advice, ask questions, and meet others who are going through similar struggles.
Currently on home leave from hospital. Been a while since I was on here.
I'm doing ok, better than when I went in anyway. Couple of things have really tested me whilst I've been in there though. One of my friends died from multiple organ failure after suffering with anorexia since the age of 8. She was 30.
Just as this news hit me, my therapist announces that he's been told that I've had my full quota of therapy and that he has to end it.
Both really effected me badly but I've managed to pick myself back up and trying hard to get out of hospital. Now that I'm going to be 'on my own' excluding family support, I'll probably be quite active on the boards, asking for support or advice.
I hope everyone else is coping ok.

A meetings - where you can meet with others face to face, that would help you too. do you have a plan in place for when you get released? if not, please get one. ED loves an unstructured life. in addition, please check out the Bereavement support group on DS to help you process the loss of your friend. wish I could give you an "in-person" hug.
