My Huge Secret

I went to the doctors today, and finally after more than ten years I let go of the huge secret that I have been keeping about binging eating and then vomiting.

I would take eight laxatives at a time and then I would not eat for days. I thought I was in control, but I'm not, and never was.

The doctor was lovely, despite having a busy surgery schedule, she allowed me to cry and cry. I couldn't actually tell her why I was there, I wrote it down on a piece of paper. She read it and didn't judge me.

I know that my journey isn't going to be easy and that I won't suddenly stop binging/vomiting, but I have made a huge step. You can do it too no matter how worthless you think you are, you are not!
