Dear dear Eden. First I'd like to offer you a big, Warm WELCOME to Psych Central and the huge support and love you will find here, without a doubt. First of all I can assure you you are NOT at all alone regarding your issues. I suffer from most of the named challenges you face, BPD (gosh isn't that enough on its own!), GAD, insomnia, severe eating disorders (all of them), atypical anorexia, meaning I display every symptom and coping methods of full blown anorexia but am not quite in the considered dangerously underweight stage. Bulimia and all its nasty effects and sometimes binge disorder. I exercise but have to limit it or I'll become OCD about it. Even though you are very hesitant about sharing everything with your psych theripist, I'd urge you to re~consider. Take your time and maybe write down your worst worries. The thing is, all this is starting to infringe on your education and it's important to continue studies. Yes, easy for me to say, but truely hunny, I really DO UNDERSTAND. You can always share with one of us in this eating disorder community, by private message if you choose. Take care and please stay safe. HUGS.
