The colours make me think of warmth and innocence. Like a reminder of childhood

Am I too late for suggestions?? Someone suggested way bay a 'family' or child psychology space .. which I thought was good and could/should include Attachment (theory, issues etc.,) or a forum that included issues like ADHD, Aspergers, Autism ... fairly common lables today!

Just some thoughts!!

a bit about ED groups.... My experience is that groups and support groups are great for just that .. making you feel that you are not on your own and gaining support from others in the same boat. I have attending a few groups some longer term and some short over the years. As long as you dont have ...

Ps ... there are also some very good hypnotherapy downloads around at the moment for controlling overeating (and other addictions!) .. sorry I think this is probably the wrong thread to mention this

Actually the "hypoglycemic" diet and the GI diet .. which is more a way of eating or lifestyle change than a diet; does curb the need to binge and regulates the metabolism so excess weight is lost slowly. I also eat every 3 hours, inbetween meals, this may be a snack like handful of seeds ...

Actually, there is a very factual link with unstable blood sugar levels, food cravings and the sudden urge to eat and eat (as well as anxiety and depresion). I have been bulimic since I was 13 which incorporated binge/compulsive eating episodes. I believe the only difference between bulimia and bing...

I haven't been on this site for a while, but I am glad there is a place for eating disorders. Its needed! I would also like to ask something Karen if I may. Would you say the ED is any easier or less of a problem than it was say two years ago? I know you have had a lot of input medically, including ...

Mods can you throw any light on this ??

Hi Moulin, I think the best way to find reasons why they want to admit you is ask them. I would guess that if you are thinking seriously of suicide then it is for your own protection as no one (including everyone here) wants you to die. Is it possible that the medical team think that you are still p...

Hi unknown .. I can hear that life is very scary and difficult for you at the moment. It does sound like you are living in an anxiety state. Some things to remember however is that you are not alone, anxiety and the thoughts and fears that you are having are not uncommon and secondly and more import...

I dont think you erradicate poverty by 'giving people something' that only reinforces a sense of lack and dependency on those that 'have'. Children imbibe the feelings around them, a child growing up in poverty will find it difficult to shake this stereotype off and grow beyond it, although people d...

Hi Claire, this is quite common and frankly can be a normal process in therapy. Your therapist will have experienced this before I dont doubt. Just want to reassure you that I have been in this situation, thought I would die I was so desparately needy of the therapist, also a lot of anger that I dir...
