No, this is a fabulous idea, obviously only for us in the USA :P But yeah, I'm getting very, very panicky recently..I've been restricting and purging so much recently and I'm so nervous about this >.> I'm trying to stop and eat somewhat normally, but I know it's going to be a difficult day =/

my dad came home today for thanksgiving... and commented that I'd lost too much weight. This is the first time he's ever said anything like that to me. He got really angry at me for it. I feel bad, like I shouldn't do this to him. He's really worried and upset now. I don't know what to do because I want to lose more weight but I don't want to upset my dad because I love him. It's going to be hard because with him here to watch me I will have to eat enough this week. I'm scared...
yea I talked to him. I guess the reason he got upset is that although I've had an eating disorder for years now, its only now becoming apparent to him. So he just wasn't expecting it. I just don't want to upset him, I know that he loves me and worries about me. I feel guilty about it.
I’m not American, so I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving (phew)but I’m scared shitless of Christmas. I don’t want to ruin it for everyone else just because I can’t simply eat and be happy.
I started making a list on everything I know we’ll be having, and then I’m going to map out exactly what I’ll be eating, when I’ll be eating and why I’ll be eating. I don’t know if it’s going to help or not in the end though.
im scared about christmas to but i can still stay strong and just p*rge or starve its easy it dont bother me but im scared yh it is hard i scared im not spending it with my real family
young girl its alright your tears will soon dry your soon be free to fly
she's falling from grace , she's all over the place..............
I'm pretty scared both for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I've managed to hide my binging and purging from my family (which isn't that hard since I live by myself.) But I'll be going home for the holidays and I'm not sure how much longer I can keep it a secret. My family is not always the most understanding.
I had a dream about Christmas. There isn't anything I can eat. I've decided I'll have carrots and a bit of stuffing. I can't eat potatoes or chicken or gravy or anything else they'll try to make me eat (plus I'm a vegetarian) and I can't not eat because then I'll make Christmas into an issue. I'm scared. I can't eat a whole Christmas dinner. It will ruin everything and the voice wil scream at me. :(

aw this thread made me well up. I'm so scared too. I've just started to get help and i'm fine with that but my parents don't know so when i go home food will be everywhere. Its all happening too fast. They should postpone xmas lol we have huuuuuge dinners on xmas and boxing day and then in Jan its my birthday which means cake. Ahh. i hate winter. :(
Hey, can i hop into this thread? I'm getting really anxious about christmas, that year christmas day is at our house so I've asked my mum if I can help her and my grandfather cook the christmas dinner, that way I know exactly what's going into all the food and hopefully I won't be quite so worried about it. But there's still christmas eve and boxing day at other houses where I won't get any say in what we're eating and I think that's what I'm panicking about most. :/
^Is there any way you could ask them what they're having? *hugs*
Um, guys..? Thanksgiving is tomorrow! Really not looking forward to it.. I'm supposed to help my grandma cook today. I asked her what we're making and she started naming off a crapload of food. We're having a lot of people over. D:
Oh my gosh, yes thanksgiving is tomorrow. I'm nervous,, I'm helping to cook a lot of the food so maybe that should help.
I don't think it's going to be eating that makes me nervous, I've been eating lately, just purging a lot..which I don't think I can do when everybody is here >.>
