    Hello

    Hello. How are you doing?

    Hey @GreenTea how are you doing?

    Hi @Stephanie and @independent_ how are you both? Just went to get some food, struggling at the moment as on Wednesday my family decided they completely hate me, they're barely speaking to me and dad has stopped cooking for me as well (his way of punishing me). Thankfully I had a job interview Thursday so I'm hoping I'll be able to get out of here soon!

    Food should not be used as a reward or punishment as it can cause issues with relationships with food. I want you to know that we don't hate you. I hope that the job interview went well.

    Thanks @Dancer I know it shouldn't and I already have a difficult relationship with food so it's making things hard at the moment, haven't had proper dinner since then, just got myself quick and easy stuff as I can't face cooking, especially with them around. I think it did, I'm doubting myself now but I know I didn't do anything really awful so hopefully it'll be good news!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 17 Settling in
    Thanks @Stephanie I definitely will!

    I have been having eating struggles for about 2 or 3 years and it is something that I have been bottling up but it gets exhausting and overwhelming to constantly pretend to be okay. I have been trying to go on to Beat for support but I sometimes don't feel understood. I feel guilty, anxious and disgusted with myself at times. :( I feel alone and like things just won't get better.

    @Stephanie working, actually got dogs booked in which is nice! And then probably phoning to see if the places I'm interested in (if I get the job I'll be moving hallelujah!) allow pets, as Diamond my dog isn't going to be very happy if they don't! Job has got a creche I can take her to for free though so she won't be on her own in the house all day and she's small and doesn't shed, so hopefully they'll take that into consideration!

    @Dancer have you been on the group chats there? I'm not on much at the moment but I'd be happy to listen and see if I can help or understand, or join chat tomorrow and be someone you know cared if you wanted to try and get support from people ❤️

    Did you try to talk and not get heard or did you feel unable to talk? It can be difficult but the community there is so supportive, you can talk about anything and people will be there for you

    Hi peeps
    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.

    I just felt unable to talk about what was going on as I struggle to trust people that I don't know very well. Thank you though.
