20 years Bulimic. This therapist has done a better job than the others. I no longer binge I will just purge any meal that causes me to feel "full". If I am careful and eat small meals where I am satisfied and not full it will not trigger me to purge.
Ok well that is not totally true. Sometimes I will purge because I hate myself and think if I am skinner I will be loved. Ok well that is also not all the facts. Sometimes when triggered and in an emotional flashback I will emotionally eat and then purge it. I still purge once a week. We have worked on not feeling shame when it happens or beating myself up over it. __________________ When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors. |

Hate hate hate
B/p is better than just binging, but i hate it anyways. I used to be anorexic too and if i could choose i'd definitely go back to ana, as awful as it sounds. |

I do not care anymore and I am done fighting it. I am 53 and 7 years of therapy. The longest I have ever gone without purging is 3 weeks. When I go to therapy twice a week and stay in contact with the therapist, between sessions, then I am able to last a lot longer but therapist kick you out the door. So down to once a week and no contact between session and I am purging more frequently. I try to make a promise to God I wont do it but it overcomes me so hard and I can not always control it.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
