have been a bit suicidal lately, drinking a lot to numb the pain and shut my head up. people around me are worried about me, hell im starting to worry about myself, i want to get better but I also feel like I dont have any energy to go on. heaps a people reckon I should take them. have had Bulimia for 7yrs with a slight break in between. but this time I have actually asked for help so I guess am a bit older and wiser yet am lost as to what to do now, feel like am loosing the fight. even had a vodka this morning before work - I know thats not good but i dont know what else to do, would love to talk to someone that understands but no one seems to..sorry for the non positive subject

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...
So I defienatly understand what you are going through. I'm here if you need someone to talk to
The fact that you are posting, that you recognize that this is a problem means to me that you are seeking a better way.
you said you feel like you are losing the fight...But you have not lost, you are still in the battle.
now is not the time to give up. now is the time to fight for yourself and who you want to be.
talk to your doctor. some anti-depressants can work quickly. i am on celexa and felt the effects within a week.
be patient with yourself, treat yourself with kindness.
I never had trouble with alcohol and I'm glad I didn't. So I can't give you any advice there except that it's just another addictive way to escape your real problems just like your eating disorder. I think you should give the antidepressant a try, especially if you feel suicidal lately. They helped me a lot and I probably wouldn't be here anymore without them.
Sorry you're having such a rough time.
