I talked to my parents last night about getting me an assessment. They kept saying "if you have an eating disorder, we might do something about it." encouraging to a point! I know there's something wrong, so I hope they really will get me help. If you go into the Eating Disorders Anonymous group I posted more about the meeting with my parents.
Thanks again for responding! -Gina

Hey Gina,
wassup girl!
I cant say I know how you feel because we are all different people,
we take things differently. But I can listen and try to understand.
Thats good that your parents are trying to find a way to get you out
of this because many parents don't. I'm glad you see what it does.
Its hard but like i said it can be overcome.
One of the things that helped my mom was realizing that the best
thing to concentrate on is being healthy instead of thin. She would
try to focus on that. (you know eating good and taking vitamins)
realizing that its what will help you now and in the long run.
Im not going to lie to you its hard to be happy in this world period.
You really have to focus on the positive and push the negative aside.
There is so much of it. I hope things go well with you in this.
Another thing that helped my mom was by having the whole family in
counseling because there are issues in every family that can be
resolved and make home life happier. There by being an easier
enviorment.
I also liked chemistry though i was never good at it. I was in opera
in middle and highschool and took art. which art has to be about my
fav thing to do for recreation.
Keep in touch, Dal Gal

This cycle just keeps repeating. i'm ready to be bone with this. I
don't want to kill myself. I am usually a cheery person, but
this "recovery" has made me so negative and confused. I wish you
could have known the "happy" me. I am getting a little more positive
though!

what level treatment would be best. We'll see if they keep their

hour time difference. That makes it hard. I feel like I'm sinking,
but hopefully connecting to all of you will help!
