The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Sacredsin (could you explain what your sn means?)I'm sorry to hear that you're doing poorly, but maybe your boyfriend going to your parents would be a good idea, if you're not already getting treatment? because EDs don't tend to go away on their own... they may seem to... but then they come back, as you are noticing. Therapy and perhaps even more intensive tx would be a good idea, if you're not already looking at doing that.

sorry ive been away for a little while havent had a good time recently. i went a bit mad and went missing. i dont remeber what happened bu it resulted in me having to stay in hospital for a while without going out and being constantly watched.
my moods really really bad at the minute as is my ED and everything else i was going ok and doing well with things (ok not so well with my eating but i was trying) now its all just gone back down hill again. why cant things just stay going ok for a while!!!!!
I haven't been feeling up to posting here![]()
I would be terrified too. But if it is something that could make a major difference to how you are feeling and to the rest of life i think it is definately worth the try. Keep us updated about it all.Sorry I've not been in here for a bit. Not felt up to posting here... don't know why. So much sadness, I guess.

Bec, to answer your question, yes, I am TERRIFIED... which is why I don't let myself think about it. ECT is my last resort to get out of depression... I opted not to take the tricyclic, and I'm really hoping that I did the right thing, made the right choice.
I'm not doing that great. Foodwise, well, I'm eating, but not a lot. I did some yoga today, but didn't really make up the calories expended. I don't want to... I weighed myself today and I weigh wayyy too much.
Depressionwise... sometimes it hits harder than others. I see my NP this weekend and she'll hopefully have more news about the ECT. I really hope she does...
I just want to get out of this... this funk. I hate myself so much.![]()
