i am leaving for a residential treatment center tomorrow, already packed and everything, i really dont know what i am getting myself into, i just know i need help! i hope i can do this and change my life once and for all...

luckily it's on the beach and not too far from home, anddd they have organic foods yay. i can bring my laptop but they monitor it and sadly i dont think a caorie count website will be allowed...

wish me luck and good luck to everyone :)

I really and truly will be thinking of you, and I know that you'll get better. I just know it!

I can tell from the way you talk that you want this more than anything. You can do it. Try your very hardest, and know that you deserve health and happiness.

Wow, you're just so brave! Good luck<3

A big hug and good luck to you!!!!

I dont know if youve been to residential treatment before, if not, its really not that bad. When i went to residential, yes it was hard, i hated it to be honest, but they have the skills to really help you get well.

Ive noticed you are trying really hard with your meals, you are working so hard, residential is just guna give you that extra boost that you need. 

We had alot of down time in resi, so may i reccommend taking a journal to wirte in, maybe a novel or two to read.

How long is your stay going to be??

Crazy, I have seen many of your posts throughout the Weight Gain forum and the only thing I can say is just how proud I am of you. I have had the chance to see several of your menus and I think you were doing all the best possible for yourself. Please remember that. I can see how determined you are to take the next step and get better beyond your own control and get better with the help of others. I really hope you get the treatment you are so desperately seeking and deserve. Even though you probably do not need me to tell you this, I (and the rest of the Weight Gain forum), are wishing you the best of luck! You will be in my thoughts.

evoultion, kayeanne, and petite_nanner: thank you guys so much for the support! it really means everything to me. even though you all are strangers to me, just knowing there are people out there that care and that can relate really means a lot. i am really stressing about it right now because i just found out i cant talk to anybody for the first week or so...

i guess i will be there a minimum of one month, but my dr thinks it will be at least 3! i am a little discouraged at the moment since my weight has been maintaining 103 pounds for a while and i just weighed myself and i lost a pound. i know i cant leave til i am a healthy weight but i just need to trust everyone there and i really truly want to get better. i know its going to be an emotional roller coaster, thats why i packed not one but two journals ;)

oh my gooodness just so many thoughts are going through my head. i'm actually really excited about going there, because i have so many bottled up feelings i have had since this whole ED has started...

but to anyone who reads this and is struggling, just know there is ALWAYS hope and there is always someone out there that cares. i know i am going to get through this, and there is a reason why we go through things in life, it makes us stronger...we all deserve a happy life, sometimes we just need a little push to get us through...

Good luck crazy! You can do this, I can sense your frustration with this illness, I wish you all the best and hope you really get the chance now to change things for the better:-)

i wish you all the luck in the world , you can do it thinking of you h x

Good luck, Bless you and we will all be here waiting for your return to congratulate you hun! xxx  Laughing

Hey - GOOD LUCK. I hope everything goes smoothly. STAY STRONG!
