Re: to fastingmeggie

It's such a shame, if this is the only way you can get any comfort in your life. I am sure your family would be horrified if they knew the truth of it. They may guess that not all is well (as mine did), but can not know what is really going on.

I understand that you are not doing it for the attention. I didn't either, in fact I hated attention. I too would wear baggy clothes to try and hide behind. Other people might turn to drugs or alcohol to blot out feelings, and some of us use food. I think you will carry on with what you are doing, maybe in different ways as time goes on, but you will come to a point that you get so ill, you will have no choice but to look towards giving it up and fighting for your health. If only you could get to do that without the getting really ill part. Comfort can come when you have good health, and start to enjoy life again. The herbal remedy Rhodiola is great for bringing a sense of peace into your life, reducing stress, anxiety and depression. Tweet
