Psychiatrists

As most of my readers know by now, I struggle with 2 separate addictions. Obviously one is sex and love addiction. The other is food addiction. I have had a really rough time in the past few months with my food addiction, specifically binge eating. I have been trying to get treatment for this through my PCP but she finally told me this evening that she feels that this is out of the scope of her knowledge and referred me to a psychiatrist in my area. I plan on calling them first thing tomorrow morning.
I am excited about this because I have been wanting to get psychiatric treatment for awhile now due to my dual diagnoses and the fact that I want to find my optimal medication regime. I love my PCP but she's right, this isn't her specialty.
I am doing so well with my recovery from sex and love addiction, if I can get a handle on my food addiction, I will feel so much more at peace with myself. I will update as soon as I have something to report. 😊
