Really Struggling

@Eden1919 Sorry to hear how you are feeling. Do you have someone with you at the moment who can help look after you? What sort of trouble are you having in regards to eating? Are you in pain when you eat? Are there certain things you can't eat? To keep your strength up, what about trying some soup? I don't mean to ask so many questions but I think it would be horrible to feel like how you've explained things, please try and get some rest. Sending kind thoughts your way.

@NatalieS thanks heaps for the reply. as far as the eating goes i am not sure i can say on here. but i have eating "issues" and i am really struggling with them today I feel like i have no control anymore it is complicated. and i am sorry i cant explain more. i have a few people around me today but that wont last very long. i am so done with everything i dont know what to do anymore.

@Eden1919 thanks for your reply. It sounds like you are tired, too. Are you able to rest and get some sleep? I'm sending kind and gentle thoughts your way. Please take things slowly and I'll pop in a bit later to see how you are.

@NatalieS thanks again. i managed to get some sleep so i am ok as far as that goes. i am more emotionally tired if that makes sense. and i feel very alone.

@Eden1919 yes, strong emotions can be tiring, can't they? When my emotions run riot I like to get one of my toys-usually Pierre the monkey or George the elephant, the one with the big expressive brown eyes-and lie down and clutch it to my chest in the biggest bear hug...I find that really soothing AND I also don't feel so alone. Or, I find that sometimes just moving-whether it's just walking around the house-can calm my emotions. Some guided meditation cds are teaching me to focus attention on different parts of the body as I contract and relax different muscles, which helps bring down the intensity of some emotions, but it takes time and is a work in progress. Sending you a virtual toy for tonight. Take care.

@Eden1919 How are you this morning? Did you sleep alright last night? Wanted to check in on you before I head off to work. Hope you got the picture of the elephant. Here's another picture for today: Sending you kind and peaceful thoughts:

Thank you @NatalieS and @utopia I just am not sure how much i can say on here about what is going on. I am feeling awful though and i feel so out of control with regards to food. i dont know if i should tell my psych or not either.
