If I don't practice/act out with my ED, the pressure in my head and chest is so overwhelming I CANNOT DEAL. I've been through ED inpatient programs, but nothing has addressed my anxiety. They have only deal with (unsuccessfully), my past sexual, physical, and emotional abuse...So BASICALLY I'm a freaking mess and I feel like there is no hope for me. Thanks for letting m share.

Hello there,
Do you have a therapist or case manager you can reach out to? My anxiety use to really be bad now it varies. I don’t take a med for it everyday. I really hope things get better for you. They can just work on them one day at a time.
