Learning to help my loved one
Hello. I’m new here. I’m looking for support on how to better educate myself on how to support my wife who suffers from bulimia nervosa. She has been struggling with this disorder for many years and has tried many treatments. But so far nothing has helped her recover. I spend lots of time online trying to educate myself on this disorder and what I can do to best support her. But it’s all just academic. And I feel like a fraud trying to give advice on something I don’t personally understand. I welcome any suggestions or emotional support. It’s very hard seeing someone you love suffer like this and not know how you can help them. I love her deeply and want to do whatever is within my power to help. The most difficult factor is we live in different countries at then moment, so I am physically not there for her. And I’m certain this causes more anxiety than I can imagine. So, hello. I hope to find some support here. Maybe 🙏🏼
