Hi, guys! As of now, I am simply overjoyed!!!!! On Jan 27th, I FINALLY confronted to a teacher about my eating disorder. (After YEARS!!) At the time, I was mad at her 'cause I thought she had not taken me seriously, so I wrote her a 5-page letter explaining my case afterwards. I waited, and waited, and waited until yesterday... but STILL NO RESPONSE TO THE LETTER!!! I was sure she had decided to completely ignore me and/or was offended by what I had said in the letter. Turns out, she just didn't e-mail me back because she was afraid that someone else might dig thru my emails and find out about it. :)

So ANYWAY, yesterday, I saw her, and she told me she will try her best to find an ED specialist and/or physchologist RIGHT at the school.... FREE OF CHARGE!! AND on top of everything else, neither my parents NOR my classmates will know about it!!!! :eek:

Gosh, I have no words to describe my relief. My heart is POUNDING right now. I am soooo anxious... For once, my heart isn't pounding because I am scared, because I am exercising, or because I am throwing up or whatever.... but it's pounding 'cause I am SOOOO full of relief, joy, you name it. All good feelings. The smirk on my face right now must be a mile long, I swear. (Okay, so I exaggerate LOL). But bottom line??? I am happy. :)

Yesterday, I ate like a normal person, GUILT-FREE. Today, I did the same. I am so pleased.... I hope with some counselling, I will FINALLY be able to free myself from this hell hole. All I need to do now is wait.

Thanks for listening. :) And special thanks for Chambers, who has stuck thru with me all the way!

Hey, guys, thank you soooo much!!!!! I am simply delighted. BUT.. I am also sorry to report that after 6 days of healthy, normal eating... I am now just back to my old ways. :( :( I still haven't heard from my teacher yet, but I will update when I do. Sigh... I guess I'm not free yet, huh? :(
