Okay so my passion is psychology, it is what i live for. Almost every word i say is in some way connected to that field. BUT (and always there is a "but") right now i'm not in control, anorexia is. My managers at work (who also happen to be good friends to me) today noticed that i hardly eat anymore, and also another worried friend clued them in on the weight i've lost in the last month or so. They sat down and talked to me, they really tried to help but as i'm sure you all know...their words can only comfort, not cure. At one point one of them said "So how the heck do you think you're going to be a psychologist and help other people, if you can't even help yourself? impossible."

My question is...what are your views? is it really "impossible" for me to pursue this passion simply because i am fighting my own battles as well?
