Hiya Girls (& Guys)
I'm not usually one to start threads. I mostly lurk around and post replies when the need takes me. Today is a little different because I feel completely naffed off and had to vent it somewhere!!
I don't feel the need to eat, even though I seem to spend all of my time cooking and looking after everyone else.
The OH tends to do whatever he wants and likes to do while I'm playing the dutiful housegirlfriend!
No, talking doesn't help as whatever I say seems to go in one ear out out of the other (I don't think there's anything in the middle to stop it).
There isn't much of a point to this post!
My LLC always says "be nice to yourself", but how can you be when all you seem to be is a donkey to everyone elses needs?
Work is stressful, family are a more disfunctional version of the Adams family and the OH is as much use as a chocolate frog (sorry for mentioning chocolate!).
I start my group sessions next Thursday - by which time I will be half way through the program! I don't think I've done too badly on my own so far....i've probably worked out as much in my own mind on my own as I would have in a group! Having this site really has helped me. In earlier, more turbulent times I have come on here to talk myself out of eating....or to just pick other peoples brains about issues and symptoms. Other peoples stories also act as inspiration and my stubborn "if she can do it then so can I" attitude comes out! So I am thankful for that.
So, sorry for posting my rant on here! I think I've cleared my head a bit now so I will get on with it!
Thank you all for listening and being available to lend your support when its needed!
