i havent posted in such a long time and i think not posting or journaling has set me back. i have started purging for the past 3 months, not every day but it terrifies me, i dont know why i started this, i hate getting sick and i have never done this before. there has been a lot of stress going on but i have never before resoerted to this. my sons wedding was last weekend, a year of disagreements with my son, though i did back off, and i actually had a wonderful time. i didnt eat any of the food there, brought my own fod with me. i didnt purge there, when one would think the stress and anxiety would have me, i did it when i got home later in the evening! i have been to my specialist and told her, she said you are not doing it often, just draw the line. that didnt help me, i purge later that day. i would welcome any advice, suggestions anything on how to stop this.thanks tons

I'm sorry you're struggling with this new behavior. I hope that you are able to stop soon. I have stopped due to 2 acid reducers that keep the food down. Unfortunately, like you I'm under a lot of stress too. My grandpa is in stage 5 of 6 for kidney failure, and no one is reacting well to his desire to let nature take it's course. He is 93. I haven't been on here much either, but I may try to come more often. This is the time of year when I get triggered for ED. [March through December]. Please take care of yourself as much as you can tonight and today.

There's a lot of stress going on at my assisted living facility. Large staff turn-over. Food complaints, with all of us wanting better quality of food, etc. So the owner's answer was if the food improves, then we will all be given room mates. As the facility is Medicaid and there's not money in the budget to do both.
I'm very unhappy with my weight, I had lost a lot a the psych ward, maybe 20 pounds, and have gained most of it back. But am going to try to lose about 7-10 pounds by the end of this month, as I don't want my weight to continue climbing. Doc told me 150 was a good weight for me, I'm close to 175 now--yuck.
It's not for lack of trying not to purge that I don't do it, it's the meds. Frequently I have my mouth fill with acid and when I am looking for some place to spit it out, it doesn't come back again. Guess I should be thankful for that. But I think that bit that makes it to my mouth is still damaging my esophagus. I take Nexium in the morning and Zantac at night [300mg]. I'll try to talk more later this weekend. It's supposed to storm tonight, when that happens I unplug my computer, if the thunder and lightning get too bad or too close. Take care.

that sucks about where you are living, the treatment we get is horrible. do you have a day when they bring people shopping or something, maybe you could stock up on non pershiables that are healthy. i am sorry you are not happy with your weight, it is an endless battle, we seem to never be happy no matter what. do a sensible weight loss, no restriction, i know, easier said then done. i havent purged in over a week now but i have cut back at night, i think i eat to much to fast. glad you are on something for the reflux, with time mabe the amount that does come up will stop. huggss
