Like a lot of Ed sufferers I'm not just trying to fight an eating disorder, I'm trying to fight pain aswell. My ED was partially the result of needing a control; I couldn't control the pain but could control what I was eating. (There's a lot more to it than that but thats a big part.)
I can see myself starting to spiral out of control, its happening very slowly but it is happening.
I'm scared and don't know where to start. I thought I could start to fight ed but as the pain's getting worse I need to get my control from somewhere and I'll get it from the eating even though I know I shouldn't.

I just don't have the energy to fight both. As you say I need answers about the pain,(which I thought I had but now I'm not convinced.)
It's physical pain that I can't control. I had neurosurgery 8 weeks ago to try and resolve it. Given how I feel now I'd say it hasn't worked (there was no guarantee that it would but I thought it was the answer I was looking for.)I need ed gone so I can use all my strength to fight pain.
Have to find a control from somewhere else.
Ask for help..........but what if I fail again, not sure I could cope with that.
