Re: Tabaluga's
Yes it did. Re walk 'sucking'. All inself-talk, well as in why it 'sucked'. Did it anyway. Was mostly peaceful if lost week or so in 'time out' land. @Faith-and-Hope . No quick fixes here.(?) .. well, maybe. Just need to be busy. Anyway hope you are doing whatever u need

Re: Tabaluga's
Oh I know what the walks are covering up @TAB .... but we're in limbo with it until we're not .... or we walk out and cause an implosion of life as we know it and start a giant mop-up .... we almost always have a choice .... but our choices suck ..., so have to choose one and live with it .....
Walking helps. So does structure, forum, friends, self-pampering, information .... went to se an e.d. counsellor this week .... and sticking to the positives.
Looking forward to the day that I can post to say that we have an intervention happening .... but today is not it ......

Re: Tabaluga's
Not saying its the same thing but ..just try not doing the walking maybe and have a look underneath.. god knows what wh is covering for with regime then ..still.. it can be instructive if not altogether pleasant just to let endorphins go away for a bit. Dose of reality maybe .. can tend towards action after no endorphins etc .. @Faith-and-Hope

Re: Tabaluga's
I have the reality @TAB. WH's regimen is anorexia @TAB, driven by OCD, and it has affected his mental functioning and his personality, but nobody can help him with it till he is either prepared to admit to it - which means his life not holding together anymore - or he suffers a major health crisis that he survives ..... have had that made very clear to me ..... but in the first stage of the illness, you just can't reach them in their state of denial, and they are emotionally hostile along with it.
We live with it, or we leave it .... bearing in mind that he is hostile when things don't work for him .... and we live with the consequences of either choice .... both of them as hard as each other, but one is more destructive than the other ..... or let's say, more immediately destructive.
You can't live with either choice without feeding endorphins in somewhere @TAB .... not without support systems, which we can't access until there is a diagnosis over him. That ain't gonna happen until denial breaks, or health does.
