Recently, I've just been feeling terrible in general. I feel like I really need my friends right now, but I feel like if I start talking, I'll be whiny and complaining and that no one will really listen.

I struggled with my weight for a long time (I still do) and once I started losing weight I actually struggled with bulimia for a while. Now that I've mostly gotten better, I'm eating a lot more. But when I eat, I sometimes feel like I'm going to get sick again. I'm almost afriad to exerciese and I don't have the energy or ambition to get back on track and start running again. Exercise is what hurt me before.
I've been fighting a lot more iwth my family lately, and its been getting to me. And the guy that I've liked for a long time (for a while i think he liked me to) is drifting further away from me. I kinda feel like my life isn't really going anywhere.

I know that none of these problems are anywhere near what lots of other people are dealing with, but any inspirational words or comments would be nice. Please don't insult me or tell me i'm being whiny

Don't worry, You've come to the right place :) I'm sorry to hear you've had a rough time lately but honestly, quite a few people here are going through the same thing. If your friends are real friends, they will be there and listen to you when you need it, and support you when you're down. Exercise is not necessarily the only thing to use, there are other distraction methods such as movies, talking long walks, if you have an artistic side that can be great for taking your mind of things at hand. Is there a key thing your family is fighting about lately? Maybe sitting down with them and talking about it could help the situation. Of course, that doesn't work with everyone but its worth a try.

:hugs: I'm not going to call you whiny you just are in a slight rut at the moment and you need a little reassurance. I'm glad you came here to VT welcome. Weight problems and bulimia of course can cause you some uncertain feelings, but know that having an eating disorder and binging and purging won't sole your weight problem

You don't have to be scared to exercise just do it the right way don't exercise to an excess because it will run you into the ground. Motivate yourself by eating a nice healthy balanced breakfast maybe some cereal and a banana or oats. It will give you the energy to start running again. Don't give up hope with this guy you should start talking to him more and show him that you care instead of shunning him talk to him about how you're doing. Maybe he can help

Just don't get down on yourself you can start running again and get your life on track again just keep the hope up and motivation and ambition to do it you will. If you ever need someone to talk to I'm always here, shoot me a VM anytime

hun, your not being whiny. it's okay. everyone struggles through things, even though to some others they don't seem like theyd be the end of the world.
Bulimia is very serious, and can really hurt a lot of people.
did you enjoy running? if you did you just need to gain the confidence to know its not going to hurt you unless you let it. and that the strength you have is strong enough to defeat anything that tries to hurt you.
things change, people drift away, it hurts but it happens. we wish it didnt but sometimes it does. perhaps you just feel like he's drifting away because you feel like your going nowhere anymore?
you just need to find something to aspire to do, find that drive to get you up in the morning and such.
i'm not sure if this really fits, but ive heard this thing, and its "everything will be okay in the end, if its not okay, its not the end" and thats really true hun.
you just need to get back on track again.
