  • I still stand by what i said, just got the differneve wrong. Been looking on the German Doner Kebab menu, and their sodium is written seperately to salt, but the sodium is STILL in grams.
  • I also encountered this problem! Thought it would've been obvious to MFP to include this feature.
  • I am soooo stupid lol I thought sodium WAS salt !! I am embarrassed!
  • Hi tolle and welcome. I am borderline, bulimic and have tritch. I am taking carbamazepine, haloperidol, zopiclone and venlafaxine currently. I have also been on abilify and effexor. Effexor caused me a great deal of anguish with weight gain around 3 stones to be honest. Unfortunately I don't know how to get passed that I…

  • Hi everyone. Im 24 now and have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and bulimia since the age of 17. My problems started at around age 12 when I began self harming and purging but my biggest issue was I tried to overdose at age 14 and yes the doctors all thought I wss too young to be depressed, because all…
  • Sometimes we all have to act to get through life, but when the acting becomes our life we know something is wrong. Have you ever been on antideppressants? Although they can make suicidAL THOUghts worse at the beginning. Is there a new shrink you can see? or can you ask for a second opinion? See if there are groups like…

All I can say is, we are here to help yu through and even if you dotn get a reply straight away, just writing to someone out there can help. Welcome to the group and if you need me you can PM me. You are not alone!
  • Hi, Just thought Id let you know that the side-effects wore off after a couple of weeks, then they doubled the dose for 3 days...then they stopped it altogether. Now Im on Trifluoperazine and Diazepam. Definately a lab-rat, without a doubt. Someone get it right for christs sake-and give them chance to bloody work!! Sorry…
  • Hi, I do not and do not know anyone in real life who has DID/MPD so I cant relate im afraid, but I dont want you to feel as if youre being ignored, as this post has been here for some days now. I dont know anything about DID really, but arent Rick and Jess just parts of yourself? So isnt that drive or passion or whatever…
  • Rem I have mailed this reply to you, along with a message. You may want to search the net for tips on stopping bingeing, and depending on which country you live in, you can ring the BEAT helpine. I know you dont class yourself as having an eating disorder, but the tips for helping with overeating are roughly the same.…
  • This should not be in a room called 'introduce yourself'....it should be posted under technical issues which is at the bottom of the page where you see all the topics
  • Hi. I am always happy to help and looking for new friends, but I no longer log. I access MFP roughly every 4th day and comment on the last posts since i logged on and also moderate a MH group on here. If you would like to be friends, just add. :) And good luck!
  • Oh my god guys!! Ive just read this whole thread and i am filling up! I feel so many of the things you describe too, especially the loneliness-but not just lonely, but also alone. I have no real life friends-I used to, but... My eating disorder (bulimia) started at age 12 also, as did cutting. Sometimes, I overeat because…

  • Kirtsen!! I think the tapping I told you about is EFT not EMDR !! Apologies!! And so so glad the EMDR is helping!! charlie x
  • Hi hunni. I have not experienced this sorry...though I do have certain weight-focused obsessions such as weighing everyday and writing my weight on the calendar every 3 days minimum and i write down all my measurements in my diary and my bmi and then i calculate the difference between my current measurements and the last…
  • I started EMDR but didnt do enough sessions to say if it helped or not, sorry. My therapist tended to use the tapping technique rather than me follow her fingers with my eyes, as i was more comfortable looking down at my knees. I tended to be able to focus more the faster she moved her fingers.

  • I was told they take a minimum of a month to work
  • welcome time2change and yrollam1013. time2change, I can get why you think the doctors wouldnt understand and i am having motivational and stability issues at the moment too...its hard . Do you feel as though the doctors just dont think in the same way that you do? yrollam1013, im glad you still have lots of professional…
  • Thanks for your reply. And i cant get a new doctor because its NHS and theyre allocated by the area you live in :( im sorry you cant afford meds that is truly disgraceful that you cant get the meds you need. Yeh i think the thoughts will be with me the rest of my life too. And that scares the **** outta me ....looking into…
  • Im not talking about bipolar disorder, im talking about Borderline Personality Disorder. I cant do the self help stuff either...i just sit there and think 'what a load of crap...' for something to work, i think you have to believe it works...
  • Yes i have a psychologist, who ive known for 5 years, but i left her once for a year and a half, because i didnt think she was helping. But all my doctors say that psychology is the main treatment for bpd and that i couldnt get better without her...so i went back to her. I love her alot but i just feel like were going…
  • Thats alot to deal with :( Yes that doesnt sound like run of the mill depression. Can you get a second opinion? sorry youre in the negative mode. Im the same at the moment and yes it feels intentional, but its probably not. Its your negative mood making you feel that way. I feel like my life is going down the pan and im…
  • Hi i have an ED-mainly bulimia with episodes of EDNOS, but am not in recovery, so cant help you there im afraid, however, i do run a mental health support group on here, which you can search for if youre interested. One tip i have is try not to get too obsessed about the goals MFP has set you as this could lead to a…
