I am continually struggling with bulimia. I can go be strong for a month, but I will always fall back into the pattern. I have researched Cognitive Behavioral therapy? Is anyone familiar with this type of treatment?
Does anyone have suggestions for treatment?

as far as i no its about changing the way you think about things. with ed comes mixed up wrong thinking, and recovery will occur wen you start to change those thought patterns. different approaches work 4 different people. my counsellor based our sessions loosly around cbt and whether its just that i really got on with her and was able to open up or the techenques she used its really been helpful. i guess alking is the first place to start. good luck x x x

I am familiar with that theory of treatment. It helps change your thought process by recognizing the lies and deceptions ed is giving you. Chances are, if you find a therapist who specializes in ed they use CB therapy.

Cognitive Behaviour is commonlyused in the treatment of Eating Disorders and other addictive behaviours, check out some books on the subject. It definately worked and helped my daughter with her social anxiety disorder and some of her ED behaviour. Its just a short course though but very effective. xxxx

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
