I have realised I think I rely on my boyfriend too much for my emotional needs and to keep me stable so I am going to be strong and try and sort things out myself.
I have a group therapy thing Wednesday for eating disorders eeeeek. Its the same time as Weight Watchers and I would rather go to WW to be honest. I really don't think I am ready for recovery the more I think about it.
I am starting the HSGD today too. I am about to make myself a fruit smoothie for breakfast. I am going to update you girls on how I am getting on daily :)
Just wanted to thank everyone for their lovely supportive comments, I really don't know how I would cope without you all :) Lots of Love, Lucie xx
I had the same problem, relying on my (ex) boyfriend too much for emotional support. Boyfriends can be amazing supports, but it's good you've recognized you need to be more independent. My boyfriend was my legal carer for most of the time we were together, which was bad for the both of us. Being more independent will make your relationship stronger, I have no doubt :)
ReplyDeleteAre there different times for WW meetings you could attend, and make it to both? Or maybe do one each alternating week?
Good luck on the HSGD :)

I relied on my ex bf a lot emotionally the first time I had my eating disorder and it ultimately ended a great thing. I wish you lots and lots of luck girl!
ReplyDeletePlease still go to group even if you don't think you're ready for recovery. It's scary but once you go the people are really nice and you may surprise yourself as to what you can do.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I haven't commented in awhile. I've been going through a lot of shit. Sometimes those group therapies are nice, but you always have to watch what you say. You have to talk "clean." And I'm not very good at that lol. It's good that you have come to realize that you need to rely on yourself first before you rely on everyone else. Congrats on that. I haven't even come to that point yet. Lots of love sweetheart.
