Any ideas on dealing with control issues? I have been dealing with control my whole life through starvation, restricting food, or no food at all for long periods of time.
I have no idea how to deal with this, I've talked to my t but she pretty much just does talk therapy. I will be starting therapy at an ed clinic but not until September. My dietician is giving goals to work towards but I am not meeting them. I did post in the ED forum, but thought this might be a good place to gather some ideas to try out. So basically when I am feeling loss of control in any given area of my life I will starve as a way to cope with this feeling. Since I started when I was five and am 32 now, I literally know no other way. It has grown into a self image problem as well over the years, complicating it further.
Any suggestions are appreciated, I am really struggling at the moment.
Thanks, Anika
