[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 1709751, member: 365308"] Hi there and I love your profile pic btw! I know you have reached out for help via the nhs and with DWEB and wish you well with both avenues. I suffered from an eating disorder (anorexia/bulimia rather than withholding my insulin though I am sure I would have done this had I known about it). I do remember thinking that the only thing that mattered was my size and that diabetic control was not important. I just wanted to give you hope because although my feelings were intense at the time, they passed and I got through it with good help (ED specialist in Newcastle where I was studying at the time), including some anti depressants. It also helped me to know that its not uncommon for someone with a food related disorder like diabetes to develop this kind of problem. I hope you can hang onto the belief that its possible to feel differently. I did, eventually, and then I was p'd off that I wasted so much time on hating my body...If there is anything we can do to help even if its just reading your posts and sending virtual hugs you will find that here.xx [/QUOTE]
