Replacing cutting with purging, how do i ask for help?

[Foxieandhearts]

I think im starting to slip back into my old ways.
I used to purge all the time but i managed to stop due to therapy (I was free from it for several months), but now iv'e started again. It's not even about weight or anything, i just feel like i have to do it when i feel sad or has anxiety.

I have problems with SH'ing and when i stopped cutting/burning myself i started purging again. Not straight away but after a while. It's like the less i cut the more i feel the need to purge. And i really don't want to get stuck in this again. My therapist thinks im doing so great and she's praising me alot for it aswell. Now i wan't to tell her because i know how easy it gets out of control but i don't know how.

Any tips on what to say?

Your situation sounds similar to mine, and im going to try and tell the doctor about my eating/laxatives/being sick situation this week.
I dont really think there is any easy way of telling someone, just be brave and ask for help. You deserve the help. Hope it goes okay for you. Hugs xx

Try and remember that you're in therapy for yourself, not her and she is there to help you. She can't help you if she doesn't know what is going on. My therapist is the same, I feel awful telling her anything is wrong but then again it's her job and thats why I go.

I hope you manage to tell her. I think you should just come out with it at the start and explain best you can.
