    If you want to look at this on an intellectual level, as you once said you did, it has been scientifically proved that laxatives make no difference whatsoever to weight loss. It just harms your health. So if you take them you are just following the rules of the anorexic habit.

    I read a story about a girl with anorexia in the DM and it gave a link to this. I don't know if its any good to you melly but it might help to talk to someone when you find yourself doing this kind of stuff.

    I know you are getting treatment but maybe a bit of extra support?

    Tes it's not about weight loss

    It's never about weight loss
    Its about feeling empty and clean

    It's following its usual pattern which means I should be able to get it back to a whisper soon. This is without being seen yet.

    Well, that last sentence sounds more positive, Melly. :T

    As long as it's something that you are expecting to happen. :)

    I am glad you are getting it under control though. The thing is melly - my daughter had an eating disorder. I recommended all kinds of self help books and helplines that I researched. However, at the end of the day you know what - she found her own solution.

    Sometimes I think you know yourself better than anyone else and you know what you respond to, know what presses your buttons. Things other people say to you sometimes click a bit but really the solution, (and I am not talking about just controlling it.) the solution is in your own head.

    I said to my daughter the other day well done for finding a way out and she said she knew a lot of things people suggested would not work for her, she had to sort it out in her own head.

    I hope the treatment works for you, but if not, maybe that is something to think about.

    Why don't you encourage Boo to do a wee on her tyre or better still on her passenger door. A handy number two just where she is due to step into the car in the dark would be very satisfying too. (A doggy one of course).

    That is an idea for when you next can go out. Scoop Boo's poo into a plastic bag and deposit it next to her car.

    Don't know what to say that would be any use melly, other than to say hang on in there. What usually helps you to switch off a bit?
    Are you sleeping any better at the moment? Sending relaxing vibes your way.
