Hi there dear beanbag0. Honestly darling, you really do need to share this heavy burden with your therapist. I DON'T mean you are a burden to others, what I mean is that your constant worrying is a burden to YOU and you can well do without it. I agree with Eskielover, just because someone is slim, or even very skinny, it could easily be natural for them, but they would be eating a reasonable diet and not have food (and how not to absorb it) on their minds 24/7. If you are constantly having thoughts of food, either how to avoid it, or how to purge it, then you need help. I think it would be better shared with your therapist rather than your friends, but it's up to you. I'm assuming you are young, so spare a thought of what starving (no matter how you do it) is doing to your body. Because of years and years of severe restricting, laxative abuse, medication abuse (weight loss), directics (water loss pills), vomiting etc, I was unable to have children, I now have oestoprosis (brittle bone disease), my teeth, hair and nails are in terrible condition ~ ~ all a direct result of those years of binging and starving. I'd hate to think that you will end up this way, so start working out what you'd like to share with your therapist. I wish you good luck and a happy healthy future. HUGS.
