Forgive, Ya I agree, I don't think because you have bipolar you'll have an eating disorder. You said just what I was thinking.

I just wonder for myself if some of my eating disorder comes from bipolar and some obviously does not. I was just thinking about since getting help. I have never given it a lot of thought. My moods do effect my eating. It started out as a coping skill for control but has grown into a self image problem over the years. I definitely get satisfaction from not eating when I loose control if my mood or other stressful circumstances appear. I don't know if I'm even ready to give it up or work on it.
My pdoc thinks my medications don't work because I'm not metabolizing them properly because of my diet. That is the only motivator for me right now.
