It's NOT the ED speaking, it's the mental issues that took you to the ED in the first place. Hope they are working on your underlying issues while you are there & not just the ED. They tried to cram the body image thing on me when I was in treatment....but there were so many underlying issues they never bothered to touch on.

Glad you are feeling positive about your treatment. Santa Monica is a beautiful area of California,....I grew up near there in the San Fernando Valley & lived in So Cal until 6 years ago when I finally left my husband after 33 years.....that was a lot of the underlying issues gone right there....just didn't really know it at the time of treatment & no one helped me realize it either.

Wishing you great success with your treatment
