psychiatrist

[Asylum]

boyfriend wants me to get a psychiatrist.... i told him why i couldn't... i' think i posted my reasons why before... but he doesn't understand, he understands my emotions, but yet he doens't distuinguish my own feeligns... he doens't know or think how i feel.. i promised i'll go in college... no it'l get owrse by then, but its already gotten a lot better... but your stilll sad, you clearly have an eating disorder, you still want to hurt yourself, i can't stand to see you like this... then when i'm upset i will make sure i don't see or speak to you that day you'll be oblicious to it... he just doens't understand!! :( i wish he could, he promised he wouldn't bring it up again... but this still bothers me.. i just want him to be more empathetic about the situation....

research about ED's, research about what you are going through get him to understand more, therefore he may empathize more.

worked with one of my close friends.

to empathize, its easier done when you understand as much as you can and are not ignorant to what someone is going through, hence the word empathize.

why does he want you to get a psuchiatrist? isn't that your decision -your parents' decision. just tell him that he shouldn't tell you that...
...but i don't know. i would take it as rude if my boyfriend told me i needed a psychiatrist. maybe your boyfriend actually cares*
