Hello, I am 24 years old and have seriously struggled with food and my weight for years. Only in the past couple of years has it become worse for a few different reasons. Now I am at the point where I know what to do but find myself unable to do anything it's like my brain knows better but my body just won't listen. Nobody in my life understands at all and now my struggles are taking a serious toll on my relationship and it's killing me that I've allowed this, in the sense that I didn't try to get help sooner.

What is it that you need to do? Your lack of motivation sounds like a touch of depression. Are you on any meds?

Dx: BP2, PTSD, bulimia/anorexia

Seroquel 300mgs
Lamictal titrating at 50mgs
Buspar 45mgs
Ativan 1mg PRN
Vyvance 50mg PRN

I do struggle with depression as well and it plays a big part in my health. I want to change I want it so bad but it's the execution that I have a hard time with, it's physically doing it I just can't seem to get motivated. No I'm not on any meds right now but I am seeing someone again soon so we will discuss it. I've been diagnosed but refused medication because I don't want it but I haven't been able to overcome it so I might need to. It just makes me feel weak for needed medication, although I don't view anyone as weak if they take meds, only myself.

It's funny how many of us like to use a different set of rules to others than with ourselves. You could spend your life like that and not get anywhere because of it, then berate yourself for not being able to do what everyone else is doing because you can't manage....just make sure it's an even playing field if you do start to find yourself comparing yourself to others
