My sister told everyone at Christmas as she couldn't stand to keep the secret any longer (she recovered years ago on her own). Needless to say my family and husband were angry/shocked/worried/confused etc...they took away my car keys and money and I was not allowed to be alone ( can u say awkward pressure?). I'm not overly skinny and have a bit of muscle as I have a personal trainer. Most docs think I'm a marathon runner. I'm 5'5 and about 100 lbs.
After Christmas my husband and children and I returned to our home. It is still awkward and uncomfortable with my parents (we live overseas so we only speak on the phone and email) and is a roller coaster ride with my husband. He tries to be accepting and helpful but I feel his disapproval and his impatience...he would like me to stop b/p overnight! I have been able to control better since they found out and I am acting mindfully towards my family. I'm seeing a psychologist now and plan to go to residential treatment in may.
We don't have any support groups where I live so I would be grateful for any tips,suggestions or adviceView Thread
