Struggling *maybe triggering*

I have been really struggling with my depression lately, which has come at the worst time as I also have an injury which means I'm unable to exercise at present. Unfortunately for me, depression for me also equates to my ED coming back with a vengance.

I'm really struggling; I've completely lost my appetite and when I do eat it makes me feel so sad and depressed and sick and disgusting.

I really don't know how to stop it. I'm just trying to keep fighting through but it's quite tough. Exercise normally helps alleviate the depression which then helps me have better control on the ED stuff but at the moment I feel like I'm spiralling out of control. I lost 3.9lbs this week and I feel so disappointed and down, you'd think I'd put on 100lbs.

I know it's irrational, but I can't stop myself feeling that way. :sad: I'm so frustrated

    I'm sorry you are having a hard time. I wish I could say or do something to get rid of the frustration. I am here listening and supporting you.
    I am actually having a similiar problem. I am having problems with my hip and back and can't exercise. I have been stuggling with my bulimia this last couple of days.
  • I'm so sorry things feel hard. Do you have anyone you can talk to? How have you coped in the past?
