Hi its taken me a long time to get here,

I've been in therapy for the last year with an eating disorder, anorexia which is as a result of being abused as a teen.
It has taken 20 years for it to come to the surface and now it has, its like a well overflowing.

I am currently undergoing exposure therapy but really struggling and feel like I need support from others who have been through something similar.

Anyway just to say hi, i would love your support and would love to support others suffering xx

Dear SB
Welcome to our safe little corner of the internet universe. Hope you find lots of support for your healing. Exposure therapy is one way out there to heal your trauma. It is certainly a brave and challenging method. My one caveat is that if one method doesn't work for you please do not give up. There are many of us out here who have used a variety of modalities to get better. It is truly a journey. We are all here for your company and support.

with care,
Harmony

Hi iwillthrive, hey to you too. How are you finding the site ?

SB1979,

Ok so far. I wish there were more people interacting, but it's better than what I had before - nothing . Reading some previous posts has been helpful - how others have handled things. It's good for me to have a place where others get it. I don't share with anyone other than my therapist, and I'm too ashamed and embarrassed to join a support group, so I think this will be helpful.

Your thoughts so far?

SB1979,
Welcome!
I hope you this website is helpful to you. I have found much understanding and encouragement here.

There may be less posting, less traffic because of the season. I've noticed a dip through these summer months. Well, summer for members in the northern hemisphere, anyway.

Hello, I am new too. I hope both of us can grow and make friends here.
