[QUOTE="the_anticarb, post: 298278, member: 16982"] [b]![/b] Hi, I had similar to you but I had diabulimia so I was underdosing on my meds to pee out the extra calories as sugar. You really do need help, I have found out the hard way that diabetic complications do not care if you have an eating disorder, and now have problems with my eyes. I wish I could turn the clock back to before I had complications and stop myself but sadly it took the complications to actually stop me. I still struggle but just about manage to keep things under control now through fear of further complications. I had CAT (cognitive analytical therapy) for a while which was really helpful. I don't know where you live but if in London I know they do it at Guys and St Thomas's if you can get a referral. It's not that widely known elsewhere in the country unless you can afford to pay for it yourself. I also found that having a low carb diet for a while really stopped me craving the sugary, junky foods which I see as addictive in the same way as cigarettes are to some people. There is an eating disorders website for diabetics (DWED) but sadly they only seem to want to help T1s from what I have read on their website although it may be worth contacting them to see if they can help you too. Please take action before it is too late! Good luck [/QUOTE]
