Hello dear Standup2me. I'm so very sorry that you and your partner are going through some very worrying tough times, and shall be. I'm in the UK so I have no idea of your social service/disability etc, but what you must do is ASK and don't be fobbed off. I'm sure other folk in similar situations to yourself get help so why not you? I know for sure if I haddn't kept on and persisted in filling 100's of forms and paperwork due to my mental health, I'd not still be here, I'd have had absolutely nothing to live on and was thinking of suicide. Go for anything you can hunny.
Regarding the wretched binging, and I know because I have been, and am, a binge/starve eating disorder. This also goes through stages of vomiting/laxative abuse and anorexia. I've lived with this for 33 years, much to the detrement of my phyical health. We KNOW that binging WILL NOT make us feel better once we've given in, infact it makes everything about our situation WORSE, but it's 'what we do' to relieve stress and anxiety, and of course the anticipation of a binge is overwhelming. I so hope you can get the help you need, none of us know what lays ahead do we? Please come back and let us know how things proceed. HUGS. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
