I am so nervous about T tomorrow. I have come clean to T about my overeating that is getting out of control. I know she is tough when it comes to eating disorder stuff as she specializes in it. It is time to get the help I have needed for a while. So I just hope I can actually get it out once I get in the room with her. It really needs to happen. Just nervous about what she'll say and want me to do. But I gotta do this.

Are you eating your emotions? In other words, is that your way of coping? Just curious, because that has become my coping mechanism. It has also added to the issues that I struggle with. So, it is obviously NOT working for me!

I just eat all the time nothing could going on and I would be eating just as much. This has been an issue for a long long time. I have always eaten for no reason or every reason...emotions, situations,stress, etc... anyway hope that answers your question. Well thats all.

You can do it - tell her. You know she will only have your best interest at heart. And she'll help you get to the bottom of why you're doing it.

thanks sugahorse! I know I have to tell her because I know I am very seriously considering the extreme opposite (not eating at all for a while) if I become obsessed with it it will happen. I can not go there that is even harder for me to get out of I know that. So I just gotta get the words out before I talk myself out of it. Well that's all for now.

Well, the session was a flop as far as I am concerned and it was all my fault. I did mention it but we glossed it over instead of digging in. I am sure I made it sound like no big deal although it really is. I called her this afternoon and left her amessage to schedule an appt hopefully for next week and then maybe I will come clean about the issue and that it is a problem. I am such a chicken when it comes to dealing with the real stuff. It doesnt make any sense though why go if I am not going to deal with the real issues. I am so stuck right now...ugh!!!!

Well done for getting the ball rolling. It's natural to glance over things that scare us; but you got past the firs hurdle of actually bringing it up, and it can only get better and easier from here!
I hope you get the app sorted for next week

Thanks Sugahorse! She is going to be really mad cuz I didnt tell her seriously until it flipped the other way. A few years ago when I saw her she would weigh me and not let me see the numbers and I'm afraid she will do that again and I don't think I could handle that again. I am writing a letter to her explaining things as they are now and let her decide what to do I guess. Well I should get a call from her thursday sometime to set the next appt. I will drop the letter off at the office on Monday...Ugh I am soooooooooo scared.

Writing letters is a good way to get a message across when you really cannot bring yourself to say the words - and it's OK too!

thanks sugahorse for the encouragement. I greatly appreciate it...this has caused alot of stress. I am finding it extremely difficult to be honest with T directly and it has been very frustrating. Anyway I will get through this somehow, someway. Anyway I will be leaving work soon to go home to go to bed. Then figure it out.
