Like you I don't have any coping strategies other than ED. It's a nightmare. When the advise is always to talk to people I just find it incredibly stressful and I feel completely alone.

Recovery from ED is almost never a straight line, most people will relapse to some extent and likely multiple times. It's a harsh reality, but it doesn't mean that you're not still moving forward.

If you keep moving forward you will develop other ways of coping. There is hope!

I do hope so. Sometimes its like 5 steps fwd 3 back. Takes time when you've used the ED since childhood to cope.

Not what you're looking for?
