Relapse
Hi. I’ve never been formally diagnosed but my last counselor suggested I probably had one and wouldn’t diagnose because it wasn’t her specialty. I’ve been doing okay the past year. Only a few relapses and they were isolated but over the last month it’s been getting more and more frequent. I have been really insecure. I have a boyfriend and he is the most loving, affectionate, and amazing guy I’ve ever met. I keep wanting to be skinny for him. He doesn’t ask. He loves me the way I am but my brain keeps tugging at me. He even helps me not restrict sometimes which I really appreciate. I keep throwing up and I actually feel really sick right now because of it. I don’t know what to do. Does anyone have any tips for building confidence or getting rid of nausea? I want to put in the work I’m just struggling right now.
just want to make it clear i am not a doctor so you might already know these hacks but in case you’re still throwing up drink plenty of fluids!! try drinking a smart water something with electrolytes. ginger tea also helps nausea. also if you can try eating bread or something to help coat and settle your stomach. i also heard eating sugar after throwing up can make you feel worse. cannot help with confidence sorry but i rlly hope you get better and i know in my heart you have lots to be confident about!
