I have been in recovery from an eating disorder for the past 4 years. Anorexia has taken so much from me, and I want to take it all back. My thoughts, my confidence, my value, my voice. I am done being silent, and I will scream, fight and write to anyone who wants to listen.
There are the days when what you see in the mirror is not an actual reflection of you but just a reflection of what the #ED wants you to see. These are the days when you need to let others to be your mirror.

Some days are hard, some days are bad, some days seem impossible, and some days just are. But then suddenly it happens, when you least expect it, a good day.
Keep fighting for that good day, that's what I am fighting for.

I often think, and I am sure many of us do sometimes, that no one would notice lf I disappeared. Today this thought was proven wrong, and it really made my day.
Together we are stronger.

If you could put your mental health issues on hold, what would you do?
I would take a holiday. Where I could just read, and spend time with my hubby without the ED getting in the way, no guilt, no shame, no anxiety. And just be happy.
What about you?

I want to be a person that I think is cool
I want to become a person I respect.
I want to become a person that I love
I Want to be someone I enjoy hanging out with
And I want to do it for me, not for anyone else, for me.

For years I have tired to become the person I though others wanted me to be, the person I though I ought to be. And look where it got me.
So fuck that!

Words can be hurtful, painful, and damaging, but words can also be loving, uplifting, and motivating.
So next time you think that a person looks good, or you notice something positive, just say it, because it might just make their day.

Having an #ED does not only complicate food, it complicates EVERYTHING.
Like right now I am worried I have somehow pissed of my trainer, as he is not responding. Or that he does not like me, he probably hates me, he probably wants me to quit.

I love when I get to kick ass, especially when it is not my own :D #fighter
