    Hey, I'm new on here but I'd like to help. Don't give up, because day by day, slowly slowly you can make little changes that will eventually make everything better. I'm saying this as someone who has been in that position of not eating and just drinking and i didn't know what to do. Do you have any hobbies? tell me :) i will listen and we will get through this.

    Hey there @ems16, it sounds like things are pretty tough for you at the moment but it's really positive that you have been able to reach out here at the mix!  :) 

    Feelings of hatred about ourselves are definitely not easy to be dealing with, and can be tough to manage but you are strong and brave for reaching out here.

    You mentioned that you binge eat, and sometimes you don't eat which seems like a difficult cycle to be in.     It can be helpful too look at what triggers behaviours, how would you feel about talking more about the types of feelings you may have before you binge eat? e.g whats going through your mind, how do you feel about yourself at that time etc.

    Have you heard of the charity BEAT? It specialises in eating disorders and other food issues, you can chat 1-2-1 with someone and join discussions boards similar to the ones at The Mix, the link to the website is here if you fancy taking a glance at it. 

    You said that you drank too much, is this something you do often? 

    Have you previously talked to anyone you trust about how things have been for you? Big well done again for reaching out here, it takes a lot of courage.  <3
