• 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.

So I got my bone density scan back today and its not brilliant. I'm trying but it just doesn't seem to work. I've made an effort to eat more yet I've just lost weight. I feel like its so futile. What do you guy do when you feel like scared and like you can't go on?

I'm sorry, sweetie.
How long have you been trying to eat more? I can take a while to have a noticeable effect :hug: What does your doctor say about it?
I'm thinking of you, sweetie, PM me if you want to talk, anytime.

Thanks guys your prayers mean so much to me! I saw a new dietician yesterday and she helped so much and I really felt encouraged, whilst more of the others make me feel the complete opposite, but my bone scan just brought things home long term and I felt scared. :(

Yes dear sister. We leave no mod behind here! You will be prayed for daily by me and others I am sure. Your density can be improved. Your dietician knows how to help and hope she does. I was* bulimic for years* but my friends at the FA and other mtgs were Anorexic, I know the hurt.

We never give up. never ever ever ever ever. ever. God has tied a big knot at the end of the rope so you just hold on. Just like lovely Criada, I am (not so lovely!) always here for you.

Know it and count on it!

* no longer purge but binge once in a while. look at the profile pic!

Praying for you whether able to post or not...

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on earth as it as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive
those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil.
Amen

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with Thee.
Blessed art Thou among women,and
blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us now, and
at the hour of our death.
Amen

Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, as is and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell,
lead all souls to heaven, especially, those in most need of Your Mercy.
Amen
