I know it's really stupid question and problem...but you don't know me so it's easier for me to ask you than any diffrent person...
Since I've started my therapy I feel like a big monster ( I mean my body). People say my body looks normal, even thin. But I don't feel good with my body and appearance at all. I used to care about weight of my body in the past. It seems I have no eating borders now I can't say it's binge eating, I'm sure it's not however it's overwhelming for me. Maybe I use food to cope with my feelings or bacause I'm not happy I don't care how I look... I see things are going from bed to worst
I can't tell about that qestion to my T because it's too embarrassing for me. I started to wearing bigger clothes for meeting with my T. .

Marcel, I gained a bunch of weight in the beginning of therapy. As things improved, I lost it again. I think it is relatively common for things to get worse before they get better.
Thanks for this!

Therapy brings up so many things. I wear more layers and larger clothes as I feel quite vulnerable in sessions.
Thanks for this!

Ive gained too- was severely underweight to begin with though- but got up to overweight- without my T saying a word about it. He said A. he didn't think I was overweight (medically I was, BMI nearly 27) and B. waited for me to bring that up. I was on hormonal therapy, always hungry plus I couldn't exercise. Needless to say I felt terrible but survived. Now I'm normal weight, hoping to lose few pounds still. Don't want to start diet though- I don't trust myself with that yet. So it's going down real slow.
Bring it up- I've learned the hard way that it's exactly the things we feel deeply ashamed about that need to be discuss in a therapy.
