> Eating disorders have nothing to do with IQ. In the late 90's I lived off Ephedra and running. I got myself down to 70 pounds. That's where I want to be again. I can't stand to look at myself. I hate the way I feel. I hate myself. I'm an ugly, fat, bitch.

Oh, Maxime! Do you recognize what you're doing? Two people have responded to you, telling you that they care about you and that they don't want to see you hurting yourself -- and you've smacked yourself with nasty things like being a bitch! That's not something anyone else is saying. They're saying they care about you.Listen, I'm in a very similar spot -- after gaining all this weight and finally meeting my meal plan, I'm depressed again and hating my body, feeling like [expletive deleted] and generally not doing too much better than you are. I know how awful it is.
But you know that doing what you're suggesting is going to make things worse for you. I can't say that it won't be better to be thin and miserable than to be less thin and miserable, but I will say that you lose the option of things getting better if you are dead.
I don't want to see you dead, Maxime. Please don't close off the option that this will get better.
