B) sit down and have a good cry
c) take too many prescription meds

There are so many other options, hon. So many. Many of them you know, and while they allude you in the midst of this deep depression, they're there inside of you.
I think that until you normalize your eating you're going to stay in this depression. We all know that starvation increases both depression and anxiety. For one thing, the much needed carbs required for serotonin production are in short supply.. and add that to the other failing bodily systems and you have a recipe for an on going depressive state. Of course, too, your meds simply won't work if you're not eating. It's not a controversial thing to say.
Do you want to improve your mood, babe?
Look, the kids could care less about the state of the house. They want YOU, Tara, they want a present mum who is not depressed or in the midst of an ed. It's a horrible thing to be confronted with all the time, but you're suffering, you really are, and it means that your kids are suffering in indescriable, unknowable ways. Hon, to be blunt, you need to worry about that more than calories in the soddin' milk. You know, honey, that this ed talk is fucking you up.
I have a challenge: everytime you feel the desire to write some pro-ana stuff (which just oozes through your writing lately) I want you to challenge it yourself. Write it down (because I know that you are feeling these things) but also see it for what it is. Just bullshit. You're what, 30? Babe, you have been through countless treatments and hospital stays and so you have the tools. You do. What you need to do is to harness them. What do you want for yourself. For your kids? I can't imagine that it's this. I just imagine what it must be like to be in a house with an alcoholic father and an anorexic mother who also abuses alcohol. That's their reality right now, my friend. It's a really sad one. I'm not casting blame here, I'm not saying you dont love your kids - not at all. But be really honest with yourself, Tara. Imagine what it is like for the kids to have this behavior modeled to them?
I'm thinking of you, chica. I still have hope for you, but you're going to have to do something pretty radical to turn this around. I will say that I don't think you can do this without a VERY LONG residential stay. I'm talking 6 months. I simply don't accept that you can't leave your kids. Everyday you leave them as you starve and drink. They will be motherless permanently if things don't change, baby.
I wish there was something I could say to you. All I have right now is, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE GO BACK IP.
I am thinking of IP again....but M says he will leave and take the kids if I go again...a couple of days ago I felt some hope but today I feel nothing but this heaping sadness....I wish I stayed at remuda those 2 extra months they wanted me to...I wish I wish I wish so many things and I dont know how to make them happen...I feel desperate like going to the ER desperate...I did pick up the house and I did give the kids and myself baths so I feel A little better...M will be home soon so I wont be alone...And I have bought boost to have every night before I go to bed I did it last night and will do it again tonight...sigh...Zuby,
I hate to admitt that without that type of intense tx I would never get better...if my family would support it I would go, but they wont they think I am just trying to escape the drags of motherhood..so here I sit looking and praying that I will get the answer over a computer cause RT help just isnt there...I have only seen S 3 times in the last 3 weeks cause of teh holidays and I feel like I am falling apart...I went back and read some of my previous posts and except for the other day they have been very NON RECOVERY...for that I am sorry...I will write and challange it...it just feels like my thoughts are being controlled by someone other then me...I dont want this for my kids...to be a drone in need of constant care...i WANT to be the one doing the careing, I need to be the one doing the caring.
Keep talking to me Z the real me hears you...gotta bat, I need to be hit over the head with it...I need something with force.

I hate to say this, but M is being a real ass if he is going to leave you for trying to better your (and everyone else's) lives!! I don't know why he won't support you. That is NOT cool. This is something you need to do in order to live, there really is no other option. I know you know the right thing to do, not even so much the "right" thing, but what you have to do.
hes just fustrated...and I am guessing scared...and a little bit of a dink...
hey, behind on your blog. i clean when I am upset too. physical space create menatl space, unclutter your house and mind simultaneously. Showers do the same for me. Anyway, I hope you feel better.
