Hi all,
Thanks for the hugs and support! I still don't know what to do. I haven't taken another test as I am afraid and everyone has given me varying days as to when I should take another one. I think I shall do a second one in the morning because I am so anxious. Is this wise or should I wait longer? I did the first one last Thursday.
The thing that concerns me is that I have an eating disorder. I tend to starve myself when I am worried or upset, and my family seems to be in a really pissy mood right now, all of them, and it just brings me down. I'm on a lot of psychiatric medication, which I haven't been taking because I read the bottles and it says not to take them if you are or are planning to become pregnant. I don't know if this is just me being silly. On the one hand I hope this doesn't turn out to be true, but on the other hand, I want to not have made a big fuss out of nothing. Do you understand what I mean? It's been really hard to eat properly and not take diet pills. I mean *really* hard.
I've gained weight too. That's not good in my mind. Not good at all. And I don't think I've been eating any more than usual either. Not that I've noticed, anyway.
Well, I'll leave you now. I've typed/talked enough. Thank you all!

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...

As for an update, I talked about this to my psychiatrist, and he made me take another test, which I took this morning. It turned out negative. He seemed happy with that, but then he really didn't know much about pregnancy tests or anything like that. I keep hearing that people had several negative tests and then turned out to be pregnant, so I'm still concerned. He said to talk to my therapist about it,but I'm nervous.
