Something’s not right

Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

Lots of love to both parts of yourselves 💛 @Birdofparadise8

I hope the part of your brain that tells you to keep going is louder 💛


Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @Birdofparadise8, sending you lots of hugs 🫂💖. Sorry haven’t been around much, I’ve had a busy schedule.

I feel like ED are often a way of coping. I haven’t been diagnosed with a ED, but I have to admit, I have disordered eating patterns, it has helped me cope when things felt out of control, you can’t control life but you can control your intake.

Hi @fluffylight, nice to see you again. I hope you’ve had a good day 💖

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thank you @fluffylight 

 

To keep eating like I am? It's not good.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi there @creative_writer
Hoping you can fit in some of your fav shows while you're being a busy bee 💕

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh I'm sorry! @Birdofparadise8

I read that wrong.. to keep on going I had thought it was to keep going forward, my bad..

Re: Tw Not Coping

@fluffylight, I did get some downtime to watch TV with my sister today, I was home today. I limited uni to four days a week, it gets tiring otherwise

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah, it's a hard one, @creative_writer thank you. 

 

All good @fluffylight 

 

I'm a bit upset now. My regular at KHL was saying if I keep eating a little as I am, I will become deficient and telling me foods I should eat. I'm like, I know I should, but I just don't want to. That part of my brain won't let me. We won't be talking until the 16th now. That's probably the longest we have gone without talking to her. 

Re: Tw Not Coping

Glad you got that in @creative_writer

Four days a week wow that sounds a lot as well.
I am studying part time this semester

Re: Not Coping

Hang in there @Laura 4 I know what you mean, some days can be so hard. 

Take it one day at a time. You are not alone.  Don’t beat yourself up if you feel bad, be kind to yourself. 

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm sorry you went through that @Birdofparadise8
It sounds like an uncomfortable experience, I hate when I am given unsolicited advice on my eating. I can understand that concern shows up in different ways for people and sometimes they're quick on advice giving but it still sucks..

That does sound like a long time, how do you feel about it?
