:frust: I am going to be 40 in a couple weeks. About 2 years ago my husband passed on, and every since I have basicly stopped eating, example: before he passed I was close to 350 pounds, and at my last visit to my PCP the weigh in was 151 and dropping. I was first diagnosed with bipolar w/scitzo effective about 20 years ago. It seems that after his passing I have stopped takening my mental health meds and just concentrating on the medications I must take for my MS. I really have a hard time talking to theropists, because if I was totally upfront with them about one of the issues that seem to be constantly on my mind they may feel I need to be put away for awhile. But in my heart that is the last thing I need, I need to try to break the cycle of isolation,cutting,and personal self destruct mode that I have been in now for 2 years. Any advice outside of theropy?
Hi and welcome to BS. Hope you'll like it here, and if you have any questions, ask away.
You could read a few of the articles and stuff Sarah's put up in the self harm and depression sections, they may help. (especially the alternatives to SI)
Good luck.
