I am so, so encouraged by this thread. Not happy that others are where I am but that people get it! Hallelujah! My friends irl look at me like I'm a alien! They try but I don't think they can ever completely understand (happy for them!)
Next for me is that I have to get rid of my last little vice altogether (occasional drink which has the potential to take over). Something I have never had too much of a prob with and definitely not my doc.
I was in full recovery for 9 years from substance abuse but the eating disorder kept me down. And in purgatory. So sick of not living life to its potential. I'm going to ring the counsellor after New Years.
