Sick of Eating disorder - need help

From anorexia to bulima the bast 5 years my head is spinning from gaining and losing 20kg each way. I'm eating soo much and binge all the time. I try to get help, i'm seeing a psychologist but can only afford 2 times a month and isn't helping because sometimes goes to once a month. I'm a dissapointment and trying so hard to get back on track. I've tried food plans, exercise plans, diets, support from family and friends, i'm exhuasted from it all and terrified of gaining more weight.

I'm a singer and have beautiful dresses for it but as i gain weight.. i don't fit into them and they'rfe all expensive and the same size. EVERYTHING'S TOO EXPENSIVE THESE DAYS. I really want to get better and get my life on track, but it really isn't working. can anyone help and suggest anythign i can to to help?? please i'm so very desperate!

Hello. I just finished a residental program and then a day program. They helped a lot. Would you consider something like that?

You might try going to OA to supplement the infrequent psychologist visits. It is an excellent free source of support. Also, from my experience (I have 15 years recovery from my own eating disorder) when you truly achieve recovery, it is no longer about how much you weigh but all the issues around it. You might also check to see if you qualify for free or low cost psychological services; therapy twice a month isn't particularly useful.
