  • Have i eaten too much?

    right so

    for breakfast i had fennel tea with sugar and a piece of breaded chicken breast

    i had a brownie with a chocolate cover (it said 150 cals on the wrapper)

    for dinner i had several pieces of broccoli and 2 small potatoes, as well as a mini pizza (about the size of your palm), 2 mini pies (basically a mouthful each) and half a roast potato

    throughout the day i had 2 unsweetened cups of tea and 5 pieces of gum

    my target cals per day is 500, i can do less but not more, so have i stuck to less than 500? My cal calculator says I've done 1000 which is making me feel absolutely disgust?d at myself- i guess i just need your clarification?

  • Wrong diagnosis? Am i mad?

    I've been diagnosed with depression and taking medication for it...

    But I'm starting to doubt my diagnosis,

    i self harm and have fairly low self esteem

    I always dream of being raped or hurt in an accident, or something where I'm hurt through no fault of mine, I've wanted to be ill, break a bone etc

    I've spent times of my life being a carer, i have had many incidents where I've received the 'wrong kind of attention' grooming online, and stuff

    relationships i have found myself in aren't ideal, i don't think i Will ever be able to be in a genuine relationship

    i find it difficult to understand the idea of a future

    despite feeling a lot better i still think there things and if i think of or see pills i always think of ODing, not that i Will but it's like an obsessive intruding thought i get

    i have had issues with food, used to be bulimic, and when i feel rubbish or not sure how i feel i stop eating, i don't know if it's a form of punishment or form of control

    i need people to need me and use me and hurt me but i don't know why?

    I'm too scared to talk about there funny mad thoughts that i get?

    I just want to be normal

    it feels like the things i think are abnormal and not right, am i just depressed, am a psycho?

    Any thoughts or if you could share similar experiences it would be really helpful

    Thank you

  • My bird doesn't mind me but doesn't like me either?

    so i have 3 budgies of which 2 are pretty happy to jump on to my hands, the other one, being a lot older isn't so willing but she'll also get on.

    The question i have really is why are they okay to jump on my hand reluctantly but don't want to stay with me? Like they'll sit with me for a few minutes before heading of towards their cage. They are also a lot happier to be handled when outside their cage (They often come out when they feel like) i don't know if they are tame and don't like me? Or just not quite tame yet? Any tips would also be great

    thanks in advance

  • Life plans, is this going to work?

    so sorry if this ends up being long but please try and help?

    I want to get into med school, do something medicine orientate. I know that med school in the uk is about 6 years. Then you have 2 years of foundation training, with a salary of about 20,000. I will be 26 by then and i would be able to specialize. Im hoping to do general surgery and then specialize in cardiology. Together how long will that take..in england?

    The other major thing on my mind is 'settling' down and having a family. I would like to have many kids and preferably my first few in my twenties. Is this life gonna work out??

    Also how does being pregnant and doing your F1 or doing general surgery? Will it work, bearing in mind that my parents will be around to help. On top of that, the issue of getting my own 'home' for my numerous kids, wanting to adopt will it all work??

    I guess i really just need someone to talk me through practicalities and re assure, maybe been there done that?

  • Flying short haul with BA?

    hi,

    so there are six of us in total, 2 adults, 2 teens and 2 infants. We are going to have a potential of 6 checked baggage, but i was wondering if it would be an idea to check in the buggy as well, its a collapsible twin buggy, so bigger than average hand baggage. It would be very useful if we could but if its not possible we should be able to manage. On top of the buggy as hand luggage would we be able to a car seat? Assuming that the two infants wont be taking hand luggage. If the buggy isn't possible would it still be an idea to take the car seat as hand baggage, also would you recommend it, as we'd have to lug it around heathrow, can car seats be checked in? I guess i just need to know all the possibilities as it's very new and I'm responsible for the smooth arrival of the group

    many thanks

  • Im not anorexic, please help me?

    Okay, so I've always been insecure and aware of my wieght, i really want to lose some but when i try it never works. The only times i've lost weight is when i dont eat. I tend to do it when im like on school trips and stuff and it makes me feels great and then i fall back into eating normally.

    At the moment, Im not eating, i've had less than 800 calories per day over the last 4 days and its scary because I've never counted calories before, i used to not eat, binge and purge etc butnever calorie counting and now that I've started its getting obsessive. I like being hungry, i like knowing that when my stomach hurts its getting smaller. And I do understand all the risk, osteoporosis, infertility, decayed teeth, kidney failure etc I understand but i cant see my future, i've had depression for several years now and i just cant see a future. So as much as that should be a deterrant it isn't.

    Im doing exams at the moments and everything just feels tough, i don't want to talk to a teacher about it because I know they'll tell my family, im scared about being put in an ED unit, because ill lose my control over food. Being depressed is not in my control, and eating is which is why i dont want to stop.

    Im just really scared, and i dont know what to do i cant tellmy friends, they are all stressed over exams, i don't want to tell my mum because than she'll stop me

    please please help

  • Was I an anorexic/bulimic?

    Erm, so just looking back on the last few years of my life, at times I have starved myself and controlled my intake of food, someday's the most I'd have was an apple. At one point I was righting everything down, and because you had to finish your food before you left the table I would get rid of half the food on my plate, drink it down with water and then throw it all up again. My mum caught me when the sink got blocked and I had to stop, I was still restrictive but perhaps not as much, and eventually i think i stopped, or it got to a point where it wasnt a big deal. When I go through a rough patch it happens again, most of the time it's making myself throw up. So I guess yeah, i was wondering, when i went through that phase which was a good few months and so bad people were telling me i looked ill did i have an ED coz i find it extremely hard to believe

  • Did I have mild concussion?

    Basically today, I hit my head against the wall pretty, hard that i was close to throwing up, but i didnt

    I've had a headache since and straight after hitting my head, i felt a bit dazed and lost?

    Right now, my eyes are feelling quite tight

    normally if it happens, i sleep it off, but there have been several times when I've thrown up, and once when i suddenly turned really weak, and my bp was mucked up

    something like it was higher than it was supposed to be when lying down and lower when i was sitting up and i was pretty unresponsize, as in i was being spoken to but i couldnt respond

    so yeah, its not a big deal, i've just been thinking about it and curious

    cheers for your answers

  • Why do I look at boys as potential boyfriends?

    HI,

    So basically I know like no boys till like yesterday

    My home environment is female only

    I go to a girl's school

    My mum is sooo strict with me going out, like I barely go out with my friends

    Has that got anything to do with the fact that EVERYTIME i talk to a boy, the only thing on my mind is, is he a potential bf??

    I know this sounds really desperate but i'd like to like a guy because i like him rather than because he's a boy

    Im also confused as to as if im bi?? or even les?

    I mean I've had times when hugging or being near certain girls give me a buzz

    Like i would feel the need to kiss girl because i want to know if it would be good

    Erm the other thing is - I ve had really rocky stuff happen with boys/men, to the point it makes me wonder if I'll ever be able to love a guy or if its always going to be about the physical??

    Any views, ideas will be accepted - if its easier skype me (pleasedontditcheme)
