I’m in recovery from bulimia and I’m so scared of relapsing while having a roommate… I’m totally aware that living with a bulimic is super uncomfortable. i keep thinking abt talking to them about my relapse anxiety, but it might just make things weird :/

Please talk to someone before the anxiety gets louder 🫶 my sister struggled with this too, and over time she started coping with alcohol instead, which only made everything harder. You don’t have to tell your roommate every detail, but something as simple as “I’m in recovery and I’ve been a little anxious about relapsing, so I may need some patience sometimes” could take away some of the pressure. You deserve support, not secrecy.

i did tell her and it was the right decision, thanks for your kind response :) i know how secrecy is the worst in these situations. also went to counselling and had a good experience with them
