Going In the Hospital- Help! Posted: 12-21-05 18:10pm
I just found out that im going back into
the hospital. I dont want to but I guess
its for the best. Im so scared to go
though because I know they make you gain
weight which is what made me relapse from
the last time I was in. I want to get
help but the gaining weight part seems to
be the thing stopping me. I go in the day
after christmas and im going to miss otu
on a ski trip my mom was taking my family
on. I feel so weird im having mixed
emotions like angry sad etc. All I can
think of is I need to loose weight as much
as I can and I know I dont want to because
I want help. Thinking about loosing
weight has really made me depressed and is
working. I think I llost 5lbs in over a
week all ready. Im so confused!

Im sorry to hear that you are going into
hospital....... Hospital isnt the
greatest and when I was in I did gain a
little weight but it was for the best and
things did improve after I got out.
Think of it like timeout.. In hospital
you dont have pressure,
responsibilities.... You can just live.
With the ski trip im sure that in your 5
years bulimia has taken a lot away from
you (friends, social outings), this just
happens to be a bigger event, but please
tell them everything. The nurses that is,
and things can change you do have the
power to change them. If you choose to
tell them, I prety much gaurentee that
they will find thte best treatment for you
and then you can get on with your own life
- one without ed.

When I was 9 years old I was in the
hospital for my eating disorder. I was
there for about a week and a half because
I fainted and was put in as emergency. My
mom did not believe I had an eating
disorder so she took me out of the
hospital against the doctors. I went on
about my life with an eating disorder
behind everyones back like I had been
doing before. Know one actually knew
about my ed except my mom who was being
denial. For five long years I have been
alone with my ed never told anyone. I
never spoke to my mom about the problems
that were real and that she didn't
believe. Over the years things have been
spiraling out of control. I never asked
for help ever. This year alot of my
friends and family started to notice the
weight loss. My friends this whole year
have been bugging me about it. I decided
after I found this website to ask someone
if they'd ever been in the situation when
things are spiraling out of control. I
got a few replies thanks to you kind
people and I decided to approach my mom
about it yesturday. Believe it or not she
was glad I came to her because she noticed
there was actually a problem with me
loosing all that weight and she said shes
noticed it over this past year. She was
really scared because I look so thin and
she didn't want me to have any health
problems so she took me to mydoctor on the
21st and he said that I had to go in the
hospital as soon as possible because I am
5'7 and 90lbs. He said that he would not
admitt me till the day after christmas
thank god. Im so scared though I didn't
think it would ever go this far.
