In recovery and looking for support

Dear MFP people,

Hi there. I am in recovery from anorexia and I am looking for friends. Friends who will help me out when I am feeling guilty or sad or having a hard time. I will be a great friend too! I just don't know how one goes about finding support here except to just post on here!

  • I don't have anorexia but I am an emotional eater. There are many issues in my life that I can't control so I eat... A lot. So many people stop eating when they are going through a hard time. Not me. I have always been able to stop it when it got out of hand but not this time. I have gained so much weight and its out of control. While we don't have the same issue, I too know the guilt that comes with food and how bad a simple act like eating can make you feel. I hope you have success here. Good luck.... Either way, both of us have let food and emotional eating get too much of a hold on our lives.
  • Hi, I'm in recovery myself, with bulimia nervosa. I'd happily help you out. It's isolating have an eating disorder. Add me and message me, everyone is welcome

    I've recovered from anorexia but am currently trying to start a healthy diet as my new one was unstructured and all over the place. I expect some weight loss from transitioning into a better diet and I fear that may be triggering for me, so I'm hoping to have some friends to watch and encourage me to stay on track, and that I can help as well. I'm happy to have rediscovered a love for food, I just want a better diet now! Anyone is free to add me. (=
