[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 349747, member: 3907"] Alyssa, I too have been thinking and worrying about you. I'm glad that you're seeing a psychiatrist and that you're willing to tell her the truth about everything you're thinking, feeling and doing. The recovery process is so hard. You're trying to heal your mind and body all at the same time. It's a catch-22. Your body needs to be healthy in order for you to have the strength to work on your mind, but your mind has to be healthier in order to accept the changes to your body. The Residential Treatment Center (RTC) focuses on getting your body into a healthy state, but if your mind isn't ready for that, you end up fighting with yourself. I know that the changes in your body are very hard to deal with, but they are good changes, healthy changes. I think we've talked about it before. The numbers on the scale seem to be a trigger for you as they are for me. Can you let go of the numbers? Work with your docs and specialists to get you into a healthy zone without focusing on the numbers? (Or possibly, without telling you what the numbers are?) Sending you many healing thoughts, and strength, and saying many prayers. As LDM said, don't keep fighting against yourself. Fight for. We're all in your corner fighting with you. Trinity [/QUOTE]
