I think that recovery is more about practice and habits... it does take time to break old habits and thought patterns. I know that for myself, eating with other people was really stressful, but now I can do it without too much of a mental struggle beforehand. I really do think that removing yourself from your environment for some time will be benificial in your recovery. Maybe you need to write out a pros/cons list of going IP? I just think that although you may think that the timing isn't right... it's just an excuse, because the "right time" never comes. You have to make a choice about what kind of life you'd rather have.

Great job on nearly finishing your thesis - you must feel so relieved!
And I'm envious that you're gainfully employed... I'm green here.
