I have had a bit of a rough week I have low iron and stomach illness. So I have still gone to my psychologist appointment for DBT. I am doing my best to stay above my eating disorder behaviours. I am in remission for Anorexia which I had Anorexia for 27 years and I am in remission for Bulimia which I had for 19 years.

I have anarexia. It’s horrible hey. I hope you are okay. Good on you for making it to the dr. I didn’t ditch my appointment this week either so we should be proud of ourselves 🙏

It's challenging with Anorexia. The eating disorder is horrible but recovery takes time. Yes, you should be proud of yourself for not ditching your appointment.
It takes a lot of courage to ask for help with eating disorders. I am seeking treatment through DBT also called Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. It's very effective for eating disorders. I have had mine for a very long time.
The reason I am letting you know about DBT it's challenging and it treats multiple mental health disorders.
Thankyou for your help and support. 🙂
