I have people in my life that love me. I have a warm apartment and am able to be finishing my senior year in college.
Does anyone ever feel that they have so much that is going for them, but because of ED just can't feel happy?
No matter what I do, it always come back to the fact that I can FEEL my clothes getting tighter and SEE my body growing overnight. No matter how many times I try to tell myself that it's in my head...it always comes back to the first thing I think.
I want to be happy in my situation and deserve to be happy...I just don't know how to beat it.
Anyone else feel like that?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
And antidepressant only help so much. I feel like I'm existing more than living and I have a lot to be thankful for too. I just don't have the strength to ignore ED. It is so scary to give up what's been my identity for 10 years. But let's keep up the hope.
