Feeling like writing
I'm in the mood to write. I used to write all the time in high school and college, but have only been doing sporadic journals. Pain was my muse, and I had a lot of that, I was addicted to cutting, bingeing all the time and for about 6 months I couldn't leave my room if there was anyone else home. It takes me a while to "get" things. I made out with a girl, I would watch my roommates changing (but I wasn't aware that I was looking at them like that) and would check out girl's butts to see their underwear. But I had no idea I was a bisexual (or lesbian). I was clueless! I don't know how it got to the point where I realized it.. maybe it was my girlfriend who I was "dating" online. Even with all of that it still took me time to realize that I liked women. When I get depressed, I'm the last one to know.Geo looks at me and tells me that I'm depressed (or hypomanic or whatever) because he knows my patterns and signs. One thing I love about this site (Daily Strength) is that you can go back to years past and check out the mood faces and the title of the journals to catch patterns. Last August I was getting depressed, so I went and looked back at past years and saw I was depressed at that time too. And oddly enough, two years in a row I was in the hospital for the same exact dates (March 31 to April 4th). I may hate Dr. Oz and how he's attached to the site now, but that's not enough to get me away from my years here. I have good friends here, too.
I've been letting my Borderline run wild. My friend, Carol, got engaged and I found out about it from a post she did online. I was very hurt and that triggered the Borderline. Then she wouldn't return my calls, and when we were talking and the call dropped she didn't call me back, she called her fiance. Even when I was in the middle of speaking. I've been trying to calm the cycle down. I sent her an email saying I was sorry for my behavior (I called her 9 times in less than an hour) and explained about the Borderline. I just wish she would talk to me as well as her finace. I don't know if I have right to be mad or not.
Geo got his approval from the cardiologist from the surgeon today, so now it needs to be all sent to the insurance company and then 3 weeks of a shake diet, then surgery! It needs to be in the next 30 days, or we have to go back to the cardiologist again. It's scary... It's just hitting me now how serious this is. Ever since I've been with him he said he wanted to get the surgery, and I can't believe this is happening. He's still gaining weight, and today we binged. I had ravioli, a piece of pizza, garlic roll, salad, 2 doughnuts and a large iced coffee. Geo and I were watching our nightly anime and I said I felt sick and he told me not to throw up. He said I have to pay the consequences of my actions when I binge or I will keep doing it. Right now all I can think about is purging. But I have to be good and not do it... I don't know what he would do if I did purge, but I know it would be bad.

Thats great Geo is moving forward with the surgery process its taken a long time such a long process. I hope the insurance company dont cause any issues i know how wonderful they can be.
Im not so sure about the purging being a consequence of behavior thing.... I know purging is never a good thing but to have your mind think not purging is a consequence might cause negative emotions in the future that are tied to thoughts of eating without purging. Geeesh i hope what i wrote makes since lol. I guess what Im trying to say is that it would be good to have positive thoughts centered around not purging. Im sorry your struggling with it its difficult i struggle with the ED thoughts.
Geo is right, you need to keep the food down and remember that nauseous feeling, so you\'re not so likely to do it again
thank goodness the surgery is on, you have worked so hard to get to this point for geo. I don\'t know about the actual throwing up aspect of purging but I do know about purging through exercise. it is a very hard battle and one we just cant give in to, for we will just continue to do it. I don\'t know what you mean when nyou say it would be bad with geo if you did purge, but I do know that it is you who has to not want to purge, not because your under threat or anything else. you can do it! hugssss
*hugs* I don\'t know what Geo would do if I purged, but I know it would be bad. He wouldn\'t hurt me, he would do something to himself. So I don\'t purge for his sake. Sometimes you have to start doing something for someone else and then you finally do it for yourself.
that is a hard thing having geo hurt himself over something you did. lots of pressure but if it makes you not purge then its all good.
I\'m happy to hear that you didn\'t purge. It\'s wonderful Geo is got the approval for the surgery.
