You need the counseling, figure out a way. It sounds like Doug is in denial about your ED and cutting, that's not something to tackle alone. Go to whatever state or county agencies offer low income sliding scale counselors. There is always a way, you can't keep this up alone,you need medical intervention. Make Doug understand that, if he won't...do it anyway. It's YOUR life Kelly.

You NEED counseling. So did I. Could I afford to pay NO..can you afford to pay that bill NO..Did my health insurance cover mental health NO. What do you do? You do What I did. Step One Phone book- call your local board of mental Health.Tell them about your proplem. They will get you help. They will send you to one of the local hospitals or mental health centers that do a slideing pay scale. You will get help based on your income and not your savings or anything else. I got great help for free. Since I couldn't work I had no income but I had savings. They were not interested in my savings but just my income which was nothing to nill at the time. I had a phychiatrist and a theraphist both and it did not cost me one red cent. It was free. Your meds you do have to pay for. So do this right now, you will get help, and don't worry about bills anymore. That's why taxpayers pay for mental health centers, to help those of us in need. I went to a nice hospital so don't think that this will be some shabby place because it won't be. They treated me also with much respect. Now I'm cured and of all things I am helping out there now in group secessions as a counselor (one who is not trained but has gone through the problem and is cured now) Any questions just drop me a line.. Hugs Judy

I'm so proud of you Kelly. It sounds like you are really being proactive and assertive and finding ways to get your needs met. *high fives you* Good luck at the appt and the other app. I really hope you qualify.
Do you know yet where your house will be built? If you do, you can scout out the neighborhood ahead and know where the grocery stores and bus stops are, etc. Might be a counselor, school and other agencies near by that would make life more convenient for you and give you more independance from Doug.
Honey, don't inure yourself or purge, there are better ways to release negative feelings. Remember, they are just feelings and will pass...

I'm glad you are trying to get help. I hope the county office will be able to help you get the help you need for free. The help is out there you just have to do your homework and find it. They don't come looking for you. You go girl and keep a positive thought in mind.
