The vomiting is not linked at all to food or weight. I've fortunately never had an issue with either of those. When this all first started I would feel very nauseous from anxiety and I'd feel sick so would be. But now I think it is more symbolic than anything else. Being sick is quite violent and I think I have latched on to that because it is very physical and immediate, and actually totally different from cutting.
I do think my dr and therapist are listening but I feel I've been a bit left to carry on as I am whilst I try and get better overall. It can feel so isolating behaving like this and not having anyone to really share it with. I tried to tell my therapist from the start what was happening and how I knew I'd likely get stuck in a pattern but I feel it was passed over and now I'm stuck and hardly feel it's worth mentioning again since she never asks.
Thank you for caring.
