I think it’s important to be supportive and encourage your loved one to get help. I’ve found that Silver Hill Hospital http://missinginsight.blogspot.com/2010/06/good-enough.html has a number of treatment programs that encourage family involvement in the recovery process.norma fuchshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09321061256981247914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764197356088627779.post-1183519818255385682010-06-24T22:58:45.986-04:002010-06-24T22:58:45.986-04:00hugs to you....Sarahhugs to you....SarahNikki (Sarah)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13731200601840020130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764197356088627779.post-77164332540305145952010-06-23T08:09:24.223-04:002010-06-23T08:09:24.223-04:00Thinking of you and sending positive thoughts.Thinking of you and sending positive thoughts.castorgirlhttp://www.castorgirl.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764197356088627779.post-79891905669672117902010-06-22T15:16:02.302-04:002010-06-22T15:16:02.302-04:00I understand being in a funk and not being able to...I understand being in a funk and not being able to write. I don't have good words of wisdom for you. I know this has been a long haul with the body image and eating. I hope you find some relief. I think the way you've played it with the healthy foods has been admirable. You are not giving in on this and you are dealing with it. Good for you. I will continue to send you good wishes, because I know how hard this is.Paul from Mind Partshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16327940093749165270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764197356088627779.post-23509292552651579102010-06-22T00:35:19.180-04:002010-06-22T00:35:19.180-04:00I am reluctant to wear shorts even when it's h...I am reluctant to wear shorts even when it's horribly hot outside because my skin is an almost blinding shade of white and I cannot tan, I simply combust instead. I wore shorts in public today and I admit there was a little bit of what you describe going on for me, too. You know what I did? I saw a woman with lovely tan skin and I immediately thought of my own pallor, and then... a little voice in my head said, "So what if you're really white. You have very pretty hair." So I went with it. Every time I compared myself to someone else and found something of theirs that was better than mine, I also found something of mine that was either better than theirs, or that there just wasn't anything much wrong about anyway. And also... in my minds eye, I imagined myself picking on my abusers the way they picked on me to make me feel so shitty in the first place. I think I'm going to go with this whenever I can. Maybe you can give the shit back to its rightful owners, too. Who told you that you are fat, ugly, bad or whatever? Talk back to those A-holes in your mind and see what happens. Worth a try. And while you're chatting with them, tell them I said to F off.Ethereal Highwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120557764517618673noreply@blogger.com
