Seriously if we told out therapist we work out over 4 hours(like the biggest loser winner does) a day and was as thin as her what do you think the therapist would say or do? That is now an eating disorder and her exercising is is purging. What kind of message are they sending. Holy Crap!

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.
