Hi Jades

I agree with Walker - it certaonly is hard what you are doing, coping without the meds and so on. But you are showing your strength in many ways, like being able to stand up for yourself, which is awesome.

Everyone there will be probably be nervous as you are. I think be honest; you may feel relieved to have it there in the open. That's what is great about talking to people you don't know.

Hope it goes well for you, hun.

Remember - you dont have to be completely independent, or completely dependent - the aim is something in the middle, interdependence. You are learning to find that middle ground, because even though you need people a lot at the moment, with time you internalise the support they give and can go longer inbetween 'top ups'.

Its a drawback to a forum people cant always be around, but I think the good thing here is that people come and go all day so there is always someone to chat to a bit :)

Perhaps a DBT thing would help you here? You dont have to like where you are now, and what you are feeling is painful - but it IS where you are and you are working towards getting better. Its a type of distress tolerance skill called Mindfulness Meditation which may be really helpie for those times when folks are not around, and it will help with any shame you might feel for needing to rely on others. There are a number of users here that do DBT and mindfulness / distress tolerance, mabbe you can ask around and see what they come up with? It does wonders for your self esteem if you learn them, because it gives you a greater feeling that you are able to cope and so in fact makes you even less likely to want to raid the cupboard :)

you are doing great hun and im really pleased you got asked to the superbowl party. i know it will be scary with all those people there but they wouldnt ask you if they didnt want you there so i know you'll fit in great.

the dbt sounds like a great idea and will give you things to concentrate on when you feel an urge coming on. nothing wrong with needing/wanting people around you to help we all need people around us and im glad they are supporting you so much.
