my bmi is low, i realize, and i have been trying to stay at this weight. i hate the thought of gaining weight. i eat the best, healthy foods available at my home. i avoid meat. i use my asthma inhaler and coffee for 'lifts' when i need a 'pick-me-up'. i am concerned, using the inhaler, because it doesn't work as well any more, to relieve the anxiety i feel sometimes, when i think i need to treat my asthma symptoms. i have used it like that for years, i just didn't aknowledge it. i always thought it was for asthma,it never occured to me i used it for "anxiety". once, a physician asked how many times i use my inhaler for 'anxiety', so, they thought i am misusing it?, i agree, somewhat... the way i eat is kinda the same as forever for me, only now i amafraid to gain weight.... i feel desparate sometimes, to find a way out- of what i feel are so many problems i've dealt with - and not eating as much, seems to help me cope. i wonder if i am hurting myself, but mostly know i am. help!
