Dear ''Fallingdown'' and anybody reading who's feeling the same way or similar. I was also ''incarcerated'' in the Psych Hospital a number of times when I was younger, anorexia/depression/SI and overdoses. The hospital (London) and Psych Dr's had absolutely no idea except force~feeding as to treating eating disorders, infact it's still the same way really. We HAVE to eat to gain health, yet it's the one thing we are terrified of! However, if we can get through the first month say, there's much more chance we'll live to tell the tale. I'm sure as sure it's better for us to provide our own sustenance, in our own way, rather than have it forced upon us. Fallingdown, because I never learn to deal with the reasons behind the issues (BPD), I'm still back where I was 33 years ago mentally. I want ridged control but it's elusive, maybe it's just as well 'cos I'm at the lowest weight I can be to stay out of hospital.
