> A couple of friends had to point out to me that, way down in the middle of some e-mail diatribe crap, you said you don't want me posting to you. For future reference, please put that somewhere I can see. I don't generally read posts like that. Too histrionic for my taste.

> WTF? I had HAD some serious empathy for you -- about your weight problems and such, that I too could identify with -- and even admiration for your initial coming clean about posting under two names.
>
> So the only thing I can think of that's annoying you about me, is my question about the Dr. Phil show. But you opened the door on that one on the Admin board, saying you had applied to be on his show. And as someone who tapes Dr. Phil religiously, I genuinely was interested in what you were doing.

> But, whatever. I used to have a lot of empathy for you. Thought you were going through a lot of pain, and I don't like to see anyone in pain. But I have no respect for someone who allows their pain to bring down others, and you're just stirring up as much sh** on this board as you can, just trying to inflame and hurt others. This place *was* supportive during your *dead* week, until you showed up again. And now the whole damned place is ALL ABOUT YOU.

> Don't worry about telling me not to post to you, because I never will again. I have no empathy for you any longer, just plain, unadulterated pity. You need help.
> Ive just got onto all of this so i dont know who or what your post refers to, but i wanted to ask about the weight issues, My game started with anorexia five years ago, i have also had bulimia, but for the past few years it is just the binging that im battling with. I suffer with depression and anxiety, and isolate myself alot, avoiding family and friends because i cant bear the thought of them seeing me, just feel discusted. Im currently the heaviest ive been, 66kg, 159cm, and not coping as well as i would like to be. I know that to some people this obession with weight and allowing it to control so much of my life seems selfish and pathetic, and it is, but i guess its about more then weight and other peoples approval, and if i knew how to free myself, i would. Anyhow, id like to hear your story. Enjoy.
