Q: Popping Pills

Well tonight my mam found boxes of empty tablets in my bag, I thought I could hide it but I was wrong. I have been taking overdoses over the past few weeks and now my parents know. I'm so pissed off because my therapist told me that if I take anymore tablets I have to go to the hostipal and I really really do not want to go to the hostipal, no way.
So tomorrow I have to tell my therapist what i've been doing and i'm so afraid that she'll send me straight away, I really wish this was not happening, I can't keep going on like this because its confusing me and preventing me from getting anywhere in my recovery even though I don't know if I want to recover from my eating disorder.
I don't want to go through this again, these stupid tablet situations are so messy and something always gets messed up or I end up in limbo waiting to go to the hostipal or back into therapy. This is getting ridiculous.
How can I sleep tonight when I know that tomorrow could turn out so badly, I hate that I have to wait so long before anything happens, I wish I could just tell my therapist now and get it over with.
I hate myself right now because I am letting everyone down. I promised my therapist that I wouldn't take anymore tablets and now that I have she'll be so disappointed in me, how could I be so selfish and after all she's done for me, after all everyone has done for me.
Maybe I was not meant to recover from this, perhaps I was meant to go through this for a reason and never end up recovering, whatever i'm meant to be doing its not much fun right now.
I should be in school studying for my final year, this year would of been my last and then I would have been free from school but if I had the chose I would pick school anyday over this.
Well I better go, I am going to smoke my brains out and try to go to sleep at sometime tonight. I hope you are all well and taking care of yourselves. I hope to write soon!

Hey jenny your post sounds grim again! :( :cry:
please don't od again but you said "maybe I was not meant to recover from this." that's not true. You will recover, you deserve to recover, no one deserves to live like this and you will get better. Please don't say that agin. I almostcried when I read that.
Everyone deserves to recover from an eating disorder and in your case now suicidal thoughts.
See your therapist if you can. I know you think you are a bad person because everyone has doen so much for you but i'm sure they don't think that. I'm sure thought your parents might be upset that you are not heeding their advice and appreciating their help, they want their daughter to live. They love you, i'm sure. So even though those thougts that you're terrible are in your head they are not true. I think you are a very good person as you are reaching out to others on the forums for help and giving other advice who need it.
Sorry to hear about your school. Maybe you can try agin when you are feeling better. You will do better when your health is improved so maybe it is the best to wait.
Btw, what would you like to be when oyu grow up? If you thought about this, maybe it could hlep keep you motivated about your future...
You take care and keep your chin up.
Please post agin, you are in my thoughts I am so worried about you and I want to know how you are doing. Bye for now...

Popping Pills
Please wuit popping pilss!! I used to pop pills especially when I was upset or depressed and I finally popped so many pills that I put myself in the hospital and it was not fun. They gave me ivs and pumped my stomach. I could not stand so I decided to stop. If you keep popping pilss you could put yourself in the hospital or even die. I found my stomach is not the same and is messed up because of it. I hope you stop because it can hurt you in the long run. Take care.

Ah your very good for writing to me but I wrote that message awhile ago and haven't taken tablets in about 2 months. My main aim in life is to be thin and then i'm hoping that will kill me.
I don't really like living I don't see the point to it really so I hope I don't live too long because i'll be pretty pissed otherwise.
Anyway after nearly a year of overdosing on tablets i;ve done alot of damage to myself, like my organs and stuff.
It nice of you to write to me though, I do appricate it.
I hope you aren't still taking tablets, they really can mess you up alot.
Thanks again
