I take another big step today.....going to see a Therapist.
I firmly believe that part of my issue is genetics / metabolic disfunction and part is just the very disordered relationship I have with food. I don't know if I'm a food addict, but I do know that the way I view and use food is very different from other people.
Because of that, I decided that if I went through with this surgery - to 'fix' my stomach - that I was going to also have to do something to 'fix' my head.
I actually really like the idea of having some impartial to talk to about this stuff but I also feel this sense of inertia about actually starting (too bad I go in an hour and half - lol). What I mean is I feel like it takes so long to kind of bring the person up to speed and I feel like it'll be really annoying. I'm just hoping that she asks lots of questions about my background rather than me having to start from "welp, it was a hot Sunday in July 1977 when I was born...'
Wish me luck.

I hope it went well!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get what you need out of it. You are right most of us need to fix both parts. It's one of my biggest fears of parenting, that I will raise Elle to have a disordered relationship with food.
