How can you seek help when your docs make you feel like your wasting their time. Yesterday i took my baby to the docs and he told me in one breath that i should have gone sooner and in another breath told me off for taking an emergency appointment. Today I took my older two for a routine appointment and felt like i was wrong because they turned out to be ok, im a worried mother surely i am entitled to have them checked out esp when they have been so poorly.
So how do i go and ask for help when my BMI is practically ok and my weight is borderline, i manage to maintain it well because of my binge purge cycles. Will they think i am wasting their time?? i really wanna get over this but feel i wont win whatever? im getting worse daily should i go whatever or wait til my bmi is low so they believe me. Doctors really suck!!!!

Your doctor had no right to chew your ear off for taking your kids in- you're a concerned parents, and frankly it's illness season, so you're right to be worried for them. If you don't feel comfortable with this jerk of a doc, and you feel you can't confide your issues with him, you should get a new GP, stat.
You deserve care, just like your kids do. Because in the long run (or actually, short run too), when you get help, you make a better mom. Better mom = healthier, happier kids.
I'm glad you're getting help.
To find help for yourself, if you are worried about going to see your Doc, then try calling a national helpine and get refered to a therapist that way.
Good luck sweetie, you deserve to be helped
