My x is so obsessed with duromine and i dont know how to help her. She is now size 56 and by the look of thing s she want to be size 50. She is not slim by nature but she is forcing herself to be slender. This drug has affected her so much in a sense that her skin is affected, she's always moody, short tempered, have problems to sleep, constipated, and dizzy. I have been trying to support her by going with her to the gym and jog with her but she wants quick fix.
Do you think she is now addicted and obsessed with her body?

Hello,
from what you described, it definitely does sound to me like your ex has issues with accepting her body image. The problem is, even though duromine is helpful and effective in lowering the appetite - it is also a psycho-stimulant similar to amphetamine. This is where the risk for addiction can come into play.
Too much duromine, especially combined with ultra restrictive diet or exercising 'till you drop will drain the body and cause visible, physical signs like damaged skin, sleeping problems or even worse, problems with blood pressure and heart. Do you have any reason to suspect she might be anorexic or bulimic? Is there a way to get your ex to see a physician, do some basic test and basically - get a professional to look into how deep are her body image issues and how has all this affected her health, in general?

The problem is once you start saying something about her weight you are in trouble. She always wants people to say, she looks sexy not big. You know she wouldnt sleep at night until 2am because she doesnt feel like sleeping.
She wouldn't wanna she doctors because she knows they'll tell her that her weight is fine. All i know is, in 2005 she went to UK and when she came back she was double the size and thats where the problem started. She started with the pill to help her reduce her weight but now she can't stop using it even though her weight it looks fine.
Basically it not easy to tell her to see a physician because it would be like you are implying that she's big.
