Re: aeiou says hello

@Former-Member here are some threads to help get you started if you're interested, where you might meet different people and get to know others.

There's this one here which is a great general chat thread. You'll often find people on the Good Morning thread too, which can be chatty from early morning, through the day and into the night.

The search results for terms like PTSD, work, bipolar 2 etc bring up lots of threads that you might like to read through and contribute to. Or you could start a new discussion seeking specific info you're looking for as well, or keep chatting here - lots of options ☺

Hope that helps (and isn't overwhelming!) Looking forward to getting to know you some more.

hello @CheerBear @frog @Shaz51 @Sans911 @Former-Member

@Former-Member i have depression, anxiety and an eating disorder too, but i thought that’s all part of a package. i hate labels and I don’t understand them well.

@Shaz51 i am glad you support your husband. that must be hard for you too. it’s good you can work from home. i don’t think i will be able to return to what i was doing. i have to find something new.

@Sans911 sorry to hear about your work making it worse for you. i don’t like businesses that make it harder for us to stay employed or get employed again. it is not fair, we are good people too. bad that your camera broke, can you repair it?

@frog good to see you, i will try to hang around the forums for a bit.

Morning .. labelling on packaging?

It's hard. My own eating disorder started from bullying and abuse. Physcologically dealing with a lot of things at the moment going on in my personal life, so when all is a mess i struggle with my weight.
At the time i was also a dancer.
Eating disorders come in many forms.
Do you have support back home? If you don't mind me asking? @Former-Member

Re: aeiou says hello

yes @Former-Member labelling on packaging. we should get our own bar code with risks, warnings and side effects. if you come from dancing, the weight must be ingrained in you head. it is sad what they do to young people. my weight really bad at the moment. i have my eating disorder to cope, not sure if that makes sense, but for me it is like self harm, i self harm or I throw up or... i have support, but i don’t want to be a burden and i don’t think they understand. i don’t understand. do you have support?

Re: aeiou says hello

Good morning @Former-Member

Thank you for the hello. Labels are just that. Labels. They don't define us. And they aren't us. They're just attachments to help fit us into a box called treatment of...

I had an eating disorder as a teen. I'm sure it still affects my life now, even though I'm overweight.

I hope your day treats you kind.
