It's hard because she is trying her best as because she told Me disordered eating isn't something she knows a lot about.

Hi @Birdofparadise8 🙂
Hope your chat goes well KHL

I'm on road to recovery with my own ED, sometimes it helps getting it of my chest even if it the other person doesn't know much about it. I feel like they can offer some reflective questions that I hadn't thought about it before. But I acknowledge this isn't always the case

Hey @Rockdog 

I'm pleased to hear your doing well. 

Wish I could say the same. I'm really struggling so much going on.

Hi @fluffylight 

Thank you. It's just hard I don't even know why I'm doing this to myself in the first place. It's all I think about most of the time. I though it was going to be like a distraction from my depression but it doesn't seem to work like that. If anything it's make it all worse. My psych said im doing it as its a coping mechanisms.

Hey @Birdofparadise8 I totally get it, have been there very recently. Did you want to talk about it? 

[Birdofparadise8]

It's just my depression is really bad, and now I'm struggling with my eating. My gran, on top of that, is getting worse each day. 

I just feel so empty @Rockdog I'm sorry.

I acknowledge that its hard for you 💜

I was told it was a coping mechanism for me too.. @Birdofparadise8

That I turned to this as a way to control one part of my life where other part of my life feels out of control

[Birdofparadise8]

My whole life feels out of control right now. @fluffylight 

One part of my brain is setting off alarm bells whereas the other part is like Yes Laura keep on going it's working.
