Experiencing the worst of your ED like

[pixiefem]

I don’t have to like my body, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like that I have to eat, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like the discomfort that comes with meals, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like the struggle of fighting purge urges, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like recovery, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like myself, but I need to accept myself.

–Inspired by wise words from my dietitian 

[pixiefem]

Healing isn't linear.

Recovery is going to be a rocky rough path of wobbles, sways, and swings.

But recovery is worth it. Living is worth it.

[pixiefem]

Reminder that when you receive a diagnosis of any kind…

That does NOT mean you are broken.

That does NOT mean you are incapable.

That does NOT mean you are not worthy.

Diagnosis can be a positive and powerful thing. Receiving help, either through talk therapy, medication, or other methods, just means that you don’t have to carry that load all by yourself anymore.

Sending love to all.

It is never too late or too early to recover.

You are never too sick or not sick enough to recover.

You don’t have to earn the right to recover.

Me at my unhealthy coping mechanisms that offer me great comfort, but must be put to rest:

Please know that recovery is a journey, and although some parts of it may hurt, and feel impossible even, it will take you to a much better place. Please don’t give up now that you’ve come so far.
