please help, i need a RECOVERY BUDDY!

i just need someone who is really trying to recover fromt their ed.. so we can give eachother support and motivation to never give up. anyone? i have a screename, facebook, email, whatever.. just let me know :)

I've been trying to get over my ed and i definitely think it'd help if I had someone to talk to about it. I'd be willing if you want, just message me.

I'm nearing the end of my recovery program, but if either of you need someone to talk to about anything ED-related or just in general, feel free to message me. I myself still have struggles, and this is my second time recovering from the same ED.

 thanks! do you have an aim screename? :)

i'd love to join in with you guys. can we share stats and stuff. like where we began with recovery, how far we've come and where we hope to end up. my screenname is cheersprklz....that's an AOL screenname. message me sometime or just respond to the thread. thanks girls and i really hope we can help one another!!

Im having a really difficult time starting recovery and i would love to have a buddy! we sound like were all in similar situations and i could use some support, considering my friends and family dont really understand what its like trying to recover from an ed.

i think this is being posted in the thread right? im not exactly sure how these work but i hope we can all talk this way, to start off im 17 and 89 pounds. ive been trying to recover since november and have only lost weight, and now im getting dangerously close to being hospitalized. i see a nutritionist who has just bumped me up to 1900 which feels IMPOSSIBLE but tommorow will be my first day (i was at 1400). i want to gain weight i really do, i want to be able to go to college and have a body. but i feel like thoughts about food control me every second of the day and i have such a hard time eating unsafe, high calorie foods..but the problem is that i am so full all day that i cant get to 1900. i really need help not counting the calories and not eating so strictly

i'm glad to see there are others joining this recovery buddy thread :) cheersprklz, i think it's a great idea to post information about ourselves, like our fears and goals, on the thread.. but no stats, they really don't help in recovery. i would love to hear more from all of you.. it's nice to have others there when you feel alone.

hi, like mars, i am nearing the end of my recovery (physically, at any rate), but would love to offer/get support from others. i still have mental barriers to overcome and fears and worries and i think talking with people with similar problems would be a great help.

I recently set up a group "No ED in Healthy" in an attempt to gather those who are POSITIVELY aiming to recover. Not for posters who are in it half-arsed or not for themselves, or are still regularly unhealthy - in "recovery" not recovery. Which I know a couple of people who have replied here are doing, sadly.

However, I would like to add, those of you who are gaining need at least 2500 calories a day. For more info on this: The Aim is to Gain: Advice on Weight Gain, Whatever Your Reason

Hi. I am here too. I have suffered on and off for many years and done every form of treatment multiple times. I am regaining now out of a relapse but this time am really trying to make this recovered for good and work on my both the mental and physical issues in full. As you know it is a daily battle and support can really help. I also joined the no ed in healthy group. It looks like a really positive group and also lalabanana it sounds like you have come a far way.

Hey! 

I need a recovery buddy, so is anyone interested?

Hi ya!

I am recovering myself from the anorexia but I have lots of problems in the skin. I just want to know if anyone is happening trough the same. I have more lanugo than before (I am in a normal weight since a couple of months) and I have spots and more things.

I wish I could talk with someone who is recovering from the anorexia

Thanks!!

I am quite strong in my recovery from anorexia at the moment. I'm still struggling with my depression and anxiety but ED wise I haven't restricted in months and am fast approaching a healthy weight.
