[QUOTE="Octave88, post: 248599, member: 40063"] Dear sophie7, I recognize most of how it is in your young life. You are a vibrant young life, a person who is a girl, who just happens to be a diabetic, not Sophie the diabetic! Here I shall be candid! From the age of twelve, I self-harmed, which is not unlike purging. A way to take control of ones life? So, why not take control, in positive way? The way to help you and your body, take control by eating for good health! I am sure you can do it! When I was nineteen, four in the morning, after all the crying had stopped; I said to myself, however negative things are, why assist it? Why victimize oneself? Sophie, you are right not to even want to identify with an illness, but, in a way, purging is rather like creating an illness, tho I know it is an outward sign and a way to control how you are feeling.(I know it is rather simplistic of me, and I am not saying any of this relates to you) You must be feeling wretched; so, as I said, take control in a more positive way! If people Judge, or misjudge you (or worse) misrepresent you, then they have not bothered to properly know you (their loss( However, I suggest you need to communicate yourself to people! As for attention seeking? If people do not know or do not see how you are, then sometimes one has to shout a little louder! I am sure that you have a great and useful life ahead of you, for your self and to help other people through their own probs; meanwhile, this is your life, its all up to you; but I would hate for you to die from purging! Cos it does happen! If I have said too much, please forgive! Be Happy when you can! Kindest Regards John [/QUOTE]
