Hi, I've been in recovery from bulimia/anorexia for about a month now, and I'd like to make some friends who are facing the same challenges who I can support and who can support me too. Please add me! :)

    I began my recovery from anorexia/bulimia eight years ago. It is a continuing struggle but you can get through it!

    Exactly anshaw

    It will always be with you, in the back of your mind. It's a constant struggle for me but I am much better at coping with it now than I was 8 years ago.

    Is this just for bulimia/anorexia? Because I did self-injure and why that is easier to say online to strangers than to people in person that I know is weird lol. Anyway I've been self-injury free since I started on MFP back in December. So okay lol just putting myself out there a bit :)
