Trying to help myself

Hi everyone I'm really struggling with ED thoughts right now. In order to try and help myself I ordered 2 workbooks. I'm trying to avoid treatment centers. I'm not sure my insurance will pay for them .

Good job ordering the work books! I hope you find them helpful. Are you in therapy as well?

Yes I'm in therapy weekly. The books r "The Anorexia Workbook-how to accept yourself, stop your suffering and reclaim your life. "The Body Image Workbook-the eight step program on how to love your looks."

I would recommend "Life Without ED" to any ED sufferer. It changed my life. Truly. That was where my recovery really started

Thanks everyone. I read Life Without ED a long time ago. Maybe I should read it again.

LP, would the information in the book help people with both bulimia AND anorexia or is it just targeted to one? Good info to know:))

    Hey yall. I took a hiatus from ds for a couple of weeks or more. I thought I was going to just leave ds because it's been so slow. I have been journaling in a notebook but since I don't carry it with me, it's been inconvenient.  So I apologize if I caused anyone to worry about my absence but I'm back and will be updating my journals again as I have time :)
