shani,

i'm sorry you're not doing too great--i do the same thing, dont talk to anyone about it, seclude myself and all-- sometimes you just feel like there's nothing left to say. just know that you can always talk to us here, we're different cause a lot of us are in the same situations...

for instance, it's friday night and i dont feel like hanging out with "happy people" (well, i never do, but you know what i mean) so i'm just gonna stay home and exercise, watch tv, mope around, whatever.

i think i figured out the reason many of us do this...i mean, it's comforatable. somehow EDs turn into little cocoons that are so much more comforting than anything outside of them.

but we shouldn't stay trapped! somehow, we should try to fight back...as comforatable as this all is, it's really not helping.

have you ever tried any support groups or anything? some of them can be really depressing, but not all. i went to one last year for a few months and it helped a lot...so i stopped going, of course. i've been thinking about going back though...maybe you could try something like that? i find it to be more helpful than therapy because there's people there who actually know what you're going through...

if not, we're here, and i do hope you're doing much better tonight than you were last night

((((HUGS)))))
