Out of the darkness and into the light

More on me...

As you may have heard, seen written, or gathered- I am not doing too hot.
- lost 15lbs
- has to call crisis services every day to keep self from killing self
- can't go to classes due to unbearable anxiety
- had a panic attack (first one in a few months!)
- was supposed to be hospitalized
- had to withdraw from college.

Yeah...

I have a therapist appointment today at 4:00 (there was a cancellation), I see my psychiatrist tomorrow (he's uber worried about me), and I also see a medical doctor tomorrow at 2:00 (because my kidneys and my white blood cells).  have help waiting for me, and here's my plan of action

- go to abc meetings (anorexia, bulimia, cutting)
- go to Mental Health Association of Northwestern PA and their activities
- go into inpatient care somewhere (western psych? Meadville? Nittany? Meadows? not sure yet)
- see team weekly
- get my effing eff act together
- catch up on incompletes
- find a job

Right now, I feel tired, but relieved that I withdrew from college- which is a good sign. I still feel like I failed again though, and that maybe I'll just never be anything in life since I can't handle college...
I don't know, I'm hard on myself.

Here's the thing though,
I don't want help for my eating disorder, because it's such a comfort and I find it... helpful, if that's weird? I think it's the only structure in my life and something I can rely on... an old friend through the tough times. I know, I know, it's NOT my friend and ultimately it's making the tough times... tougher- but still... the control.

comments and support are appreciated, I need them really...

  2. thats a great plan of action. maybe the best thing would to make yourself relax. perhaps you could try and gain that control from somewhere else more positive. Why not set get better goals... it will still be planned and controlled but you will be heading in a better direction. eg. today i will lay down and watch a movie i like. omg i sound like a fucking dr. anyways stay safe. xo
