I'm really hurting

Hi y'all,

As many of you now I've been through abuse in my life. And now I am an adult and I am safe...but I am still living in those abusive times.

I am in OA. I am reading up on adults hurt as children and books of that nature.

I took the sugar out for 8 whole days. But I couldn't do it. I NEED the food to fill the hole inside of me. I had 2 chocolate bars this morning.

I'm so sick of htis! I'm so sick of livign this way! Of hurting all the time. Worrying what others think of me. Not abel to love myself and like myself. Seeing myself as less than everyone else is. Going throuhg my days ashamed and hurting and wanting to be swallowed up.

Now on top of these feelings I have the lightheadeness from the sugar which makes it difficult to think clearly.

I am just SO TIRED of it all. The drama, the food, the starvation, the feelings, the burried feelings, having to please everyone all the time, calling my parents all the time out of respect, repeating my past over and over again in my head, trying so hard with the food and then eating again anyway....I just want to live a healthy life!

I want to be close to my hubby. But with food in the way...I can't be intimate with him. This hurts more than I can say.

I am just hurting so much.

I just wish I could live in TODAY. But I don't know how. I used anorexia to survive childhood traumas. I was "perfect" so that I would get the love I needed. But hubby doesn't love me cause I'm who he wants me to be...he loves me for me. But who am I? I don't see myself. All I know how to be is for others. Can't I learn to be for me? Can't I start today?

If only I knew how...

Anyway, thanks for reading. I needed to share htis.

Love,
Ruchie
