'i must of been a jerk in my past life to desrve this'... jeez i thought i was the only one who ever said that about my own life/abuse. It gets better it absolutely has to.. I went through the same thing with college last year i found myself focusing less and less, missing class not handing anything in as easy as the assignment was. ****** boyfriend, ****** work, ****** friends. When you talk, you try to so hard not to let the depression show that you just avoid socializing altogether. This just happens to be your story y'know?

It all passes everything is temporary...good or bad..your abuse has passed.. hang in there

You have to work through this stuff. There isn't any forgetting or simply moving past it. Shift your energy to what will work - working through it, instead of fighting it.

You didn't do anything to deserve any of this. People with severe problems had access to you.

When we cant sleep and cant eat it is usually our body's way of telling us there is something we need to work on. To change.

It usualy indicates a state of alert and of anxiety. We simply cant relax.

The truth is that he does not have control anymore. But the body remembers.

Various things can help - counselling, going for walks in nature, acupuncture, music, books etc.

I hope in time you will feel better and maybe keeping a log of your feelings will help too.

You are doing well x

be GENTLE with yourself. you we're hurt. you are in pain. beating yourself up about it will intensify the negative feelings you already feel.

have you tried treating/self-talk with yourself that involves treating yourself how you would treat a close friend or a family member?
would you say these same things to someone you care deeply about?

be GENTLE with yourself, it takes time to let go, and not being GENTLE with yourself will only make this situation harder to deal with,.....

granted, it will still be hard but, positive self talk makes a huge difference.

Your therapist is aware of this?

(((HUGS!)))

Hopeful, you need to be honest with your T. I think that trying to protect her from knowing everything is a sweet idea but in doing that you are only hurting yourself. I am wondering if meds could be playing a role in how you are feeling right now? I hope you are doing better Sweetie. Take it easy and take it slow, Day by day, Hour by hour if you have to. Thinking about you tons!!!

Hopefully, yes, you need to be honest with your therapist. This is the best way to get better.

I decided against the pills cats cause like everyone was saying its a waste of money and you know as well as I do that its hard to stop purging all together n obviously nobody had nothing of importance to say towards it I know I have to stop purging I just wanted to know how did others manage with taking pills n purging still didnt get an answer I was looking for but thats fine and as far as my feelings thats just is has nothing to do with meds cause im taking them I know it wld prob help me balance things out......@ Sannah I shld be honest with my therapist but I always had this mask and im afraid to just let my guard down ugh

This sounds like something to gradually work through, small steps at a time.
