People look at you and think you have it all put together, but inside you are falling apart. Feeling like food or your appearance is the only thing you can control in your life is frightening, especially when you start feeling like you're not even really in control of that. The loneliness that can come with that is devastating. You're anxious, uncomfortable, lonely, and miserable. You're feeling out of control with food: bingeing, purging, restricting, counting, weighing.... It's maddening. You're ashamed and afraid of what anyone might think if they found out. You put on the mask and pretend you're fine.
What if you actually managed to regain control of your feelings and your world? You've learned to cope and are now able to handle life. You're no longer focused on your relationship with food and instead are living and making memories. You don't have to pretend anymore.
If this speaks to you, you're not alone. I can help. There is so much more to life than the power struggle. We can merge your mind and body and stop the war. It is possible to have a life beyond this. Call today to set up an appointment.
