Well..............since the eating disorder chat last night I really feel worse because the truth is if you really want to get rid of the ED then you should just stop. It all comes down to my chose to do it or not to do it. So I feel even more like a loser because it comes down to willpower that I just do not have. The truth is I am disgusting and gross. If I make it through today then it will be day 2 that I did not partake in my negative coping behavior.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
