I'm new to this forum and also new to coming to terms with my eating disorder. I used to display symptoms of anorexia, barely eating, afraid to eat and determined to lose weight, until I could bear it no longer and my family and friends started commenting on my eating habits. I now show symptoms of bulimia, I don't purge (although i have once or twice) but I have cycles of bingeing and fasting that have gotten out of control. I've been suffering for over a year now and was diagnosed with severe depression in july. I keep trying to 'cure' myself but without support its becoming extremely difficult and every time i have a weak moment I find myself distraught and back in the same cycle. It takes months to get sufficient counselling so i hoped that joining this forum would help me gain confidence within myself to get better.
I just need to know that its possible to recover, and quickly too, because its difficult to find support within my friends or family that gives me the confidence I need. It feels like no one truly understands and my abnormal eating is affecting every single thought in my head.
i'd like to know of other people who have had similar experiences and are on the way to recovery
