Thank you, Paul. You took the words right out of my mouth.
I will also add, Katie, you don't know much about me to make assumptions of my education of eating disorders or anything else for that matter. I'm trying to help you with your struggle. It seems you don't really want to hear what is being offered. Instead, you are letting your addiction and anger get the best of you.
I understand, I've been right where you stand. I don't judge, just trying to nudge you forward by offering what helped me. You can either take the helping hand that is being offered, or you can slap it away. That is your choice, but lashing out isn't going to help you get better. I think you keep straying from your focus. The focus being how are you going to stop drinking today? With that in order, everything else will fall into place. Good luck.
