| has anyone tried to recover??? sometimes i try to but i never succed recovery is not for me... and there are times when i think that it' s gift sended from God, wich aim is to convince me that recovery is something useless... when somebody recovers he becomes fater and everyone knows about his ED and fell sorry for him... in most instances the person fails wich leads him to do worse things than he used to...
sorry... my english skills are horrible

These people really want to help you, to think and act normal. |

| ive just started treatment, and the people really do care, and are genuinely concerned about my health as i have had some abnormal tests. i keep telling my therapist that trying all these things they are advising me on will make me become a huge and fat and i will have tortured my body all these years for nothing. but they are even allowing me to restrict on the minimum of calories if it means i am doing less b/p. they really do want to help and set you free. unfortunately, many people dont recover from eating disorders, and there are many times where i say 'i cant be bothered with this, its easier to just starve and binge and be thin' it is alot of work to put in. i am not guaranteeing i will recover but im giving it a shot, and thats all you can do. some people recover, some relapse and recover, some dont recover, its just the way it is. xxxxx |

| I honestly am at the right spot right now. I am against recovery as well ... maybe not "against" it so much as scared of it. But I do understand where your coming from and I do hope that one day we can both find a way out, as today is my 10 year it hits closer to home. |

Location: U.K. | I tried to eat normally for 8 months and I put on 24lbs, at which point I freaked out and I've gone back to restricting and starving again, but I like it that way. It keeps my mind off other things. |

 Location: Usa | There are times where I have a little 'recovery fit' and hop aboard the health train... and then get off at the first hint that I am gaining weight. Or the first time I put food in my mouth, and thus need to throw it up. I do believe it's possible to recover, but, like with any addiction, you have to hit rock bottom before it's possible. |

 Location: US | I keep telling myself that once I reach a certain goal I'll start eating normally again, but I doubt it. Once I hit that goal, how would I maintain it without restricting? |
