Hi, Dave here. I found this conversation by accident, but reading it I felt that I needed to add something. My girlfriend has many of the same symptoms, minus the eating disorders. The way that she describes it is something like this. Metaphorically speaking, there is a chip in her mind that controls what she does sometimes. She says that this chip made her fall in love with me, but after about five months of loving me it flipped over and revealed itself. When this happened she had a mental breakdown and became very depressed for around a month. She said that at that time she was not sure if she was in love with, or if it was the "chip" that made her be in love with me. She has seen a counselor and has gotten on some medication, and I remember her saying something about a chemical imbalance. Anyway, I fear I may lose her if she is not cured soon. She has already told me that she does not want to see me for some time. I lover her more than anything and I know that she loves me too, if only she were mentally ok. I would appreciate some advice. thanks.
Dave
