I am so very sorry to hear that you are suffering so much. I agree though, just start slowly, and don’t even think about the long term. Just do what one small thing you can to take care of yourself right now, in this moment, and let the future take care of itself. Please do check in and let me know how you’re doing.

Thank you for this, I stumbled across this site whilst browsing the web desperately hoping to find answers, or a fix actually, I managed to skim through a few of your posts and cannot quite believe how common my thoughts and behaviours are. I am in a horrible cycle of being up all night, till 10am, bingeing – and I purge too, on huge amounts, over and over again, about 15 times, then I stay in bed all day. It’s extremely disabling, I can’t work, study, meet people etc. I wont go into too much detail, but this particular article helped me, it’s a huge relief – all i have to work on right now is my sleep. NOTHING else, for now. It’s hard for me not to jump into wanting to do everything at once, as I write this I am even thinking, sleep plus no bingeing and purging, plus lemon tea every morning, swim and walk every day, wash my face, take my vitamins, see my friends, go to all appointments, start going to OA, etc etc etc etc, then poof. so my goal now is to just get into bed before 12, and out of bed in the morning. I will probably have to take some sleeping pills to start with, and i struggle with insomnia too.
sorry this is so long, thank you for this site
