Girl, I wish it as just wanting to be skinny to. With everything going on, I fell off the ED wagon. Too bad naltrexone doesn’t help with that. I was thinking of you the other day. All this time I thought my gabapentin was making me nauseated, but it was the naltrexone! I remember you saying you couldn’t take it because it made you so, so sick when you tried it.
Anyway, what made me think of that was thinking too bad naltrexone doesn’t work for eating disorders.
I had to google IFS, I have never heard of it before today. Sounds pretty complex but interesting. So, is your therapist doing both at the same time? I’ve been told that I should try EMDR. Reading your post again after reading up on IFS makes a lot more sense now lol.
Oh, glad you figured that out, and yeah too bad. I actually said to my therapist today, “why cant i just take a pill for this?” She hasnt started the EMDR yet, said she wanted to do IFS first. I think we will start EMDR next session but with happy memories just to try. From the sounds of it and knowing your story I bet EMDR would be great for you.
Always walking with you; on, off and under the train.
Thank you sweet pea, and same to you xo
Yeah, that’s what I hear about EMDR, once I can get back into therapy, I’ll mention it and see if he does it. I’m going to say he probably doesn’t but could refer me Just need some of that fancy insurance stuff first lol
'Today I asked my body what she needed,
Which is a big deal
Considering my journey of
Not Really Asking That Much.
I thought she might need more water.
Or protein.
Or greens.
Or yoga.
Or supplements.
Or movement.
But as I stood in the shower
Reflecting on her stretch marks,
Her roundness where I would like flatness,
Her softness where I would like firmness,
All those conditioned wishes
That form a bundle of
Never-Quite-Right-Ness,
