I'm a new beginner. I've been reading post for the last two week. Almost signed up 3 times. Fourth was the charm. I'm 30 and have had anorexia and bulimia since I was eight when a very tragic thing happened. After my mom started birds and bees talk I freaked about developing. Took awhile of support from my mom

I'm so sorry to hear all of the struggles you have gone through and are currently going through. I've had a pretty rough run at life as well. I am also 30 but do not have any children of my own. Please know that I'm here to support you in whatever way you need it. I can relate to your struggle of having your ED since a young age. I also have been dealing with mine since I can remember. I have anorexia with periods of bulimia and have struggled with SI. I recently went through treatment but it was NOT a good experience. I'd love to learn more about you. Where are you from? Do you work or go to school? when were you last in treatment?

Thanks for your support. I live in Wisconsin. I'm an at home mom. I receive social security for the severity of going in and out of recovery. It's left it to hard to maintain a job. Impatient care is good if you need to be stabilized. A break of having the opportunity to do behaviors.

Oh wow, I'm in Minnesota. I feel like there are very few people on here from the Midwest (U.S.). Have you always lived in WI? How are you doing this week? Hoping you are hanging on...Let me know if you need to talk. *HUGS*

I feel the same way. I always feel so alone in my ed. I’m sure there are more in are area. They just don’t receive help. I have always lived in Wisconsin. It’s been a rough couple of weeks. My son is coming home from being at a boys group home the 30th. He’s been there for a year. He’s been coming home for visits. However the closer he gets to come home the more defiant he’s becoming. They say it’s normal but it’s still hard. I’m bouncing in and out of restrict and purging. So the last couple of months my weight drops then shortly goes back up since it’s easier to gain then loose. I’m here for you to talk to as well. I try to get on in the morning and night.
