You are here:
I am recovering from about nine years with my eating disorder and while I am not a psychologist, I`ve accumulated a good deal of knowledge about eating disorders as well as my own experience over this time. I`ve mainly struggled with anorexia, but have definitely had times where I have engaged in bulimic behaviors as well. I also struggle with over exercising, but am about to be certified as a personal trainer and have learned moderation as well as how to treat my body well so it can perform at it`s best. I promise to give an honest answer to anything asked, and I want to say that while it is a long, scary road---it is possible to get free of this and it is so important to keep on taking little steps and knowing that you are not alone.
Sufferer for nine plus years. Also, my Mom has struggled with this issue- as have others in her side of the family.
My degree is not in psychology, I have simply lived with and overcome an eating disorder.
I like showing people that there is a light on the other side and that it is possible to overcome an eating disorder and be happy and healthy again.
