Anorexia Self Help : The Point of Your Return 

At what point do you decide to stand and fight against your anorexia? Which day and hour is the point when you feel that need start to creep over you and take a hold?

Of course - for some - that day never comes. All over the world there are people dying by their own reluctant and confused hands. But many reach a point where they stretch out and ask for help.

This is a big moment. And at last you are not alone with the problem.

But the road back from your private Hell is going to be long and tortuous.

Anorexia Self Help : The Art of Deception 

Someone suffering from eating disorders will go to extraordinary lengths to trick people into believing they are OK about food. For example - they may:.

1) Find many things to do - to keep fully occupied. This is a deliberate way to use "busy" as a means of avoiding food, hunger and meals.

2) Throw large amounts of food away or never fully finish a meal.

3) Hide uneaten food in pockets, boxes or bags - to dispose of later. These hohoards of food may be hidden under the bed or in drawers and cupboards until it is safe to dispose of them.

4) As a deliberate distraction, start watching other eat while taking a keen interest in what is eaten. This might also involve encouraging them to eat more.

5) Start cooking elaborate meals - to pretend there is a keen interest in food - while actually avoiding eating the end product.

6) Take a sudden keen interest in cooking and food preparation while someone else cooks. Often found hanging around in the kitchen and asking questions and showing enthusiasm to discuss culinary methods. It's all a ruse to divert attention away from the fact they are not actually eating anything.

Anorexia Self Help : Heartfelt Notes from a Recovered Anorexic 

The following are notes from a recovered anorexic with bulimic tendencies. The reality and determination in these truths shows just how far she had travelled from chronic eating disorders to developing a new healthy relationship with food

Notes for the Future
- Feeling your emotions will not kill you. Trying to numb your emotions by restricting food and binging and purging can only harm you. It's perfectly normal to feel sad, mad, happy, or depressed at times. Life is jam-packed full of lows and highs.

- Talk about your feelings to someone you trust. Perhaps a family member or a friend - but not another eating disorder sufferer. Doing this will help you to get through your emotionally difficult times.

- You need to be open and ready to receive help. Nobody can force you to get better. Unless you recognize that change is possible - you will not start to recover.
