THIS IS WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS
I said in my last post I knew exactly why I went back to my eating disorder after my time in treatment and after learning new ways to cope. It was body image. It was weight gain. It was how triggering summer clothing is for me... no. i mean that is all part of it... Continue Reading →
I think I have a hundred posts on this topic. Well not really because I think I only have about that many posts on this blog anyway. But, for the sake of dramatic effect, for the HUNDREDTH time, I hate spring time and the clothes that go with it. I live in the Northern Hemisphere,... Continue Reading →
I made a podcast about unspecified eating disorders for a school assignment. The sound quality isn't great, and the style is a bit choppy, and the more I listen to it the more critical I become...but overall I'm happy enough with it to share with y'all. 🙂 Oh, and there is a 15 second delay...

Hi, Guess where I have been for the past, what has it been, 8 months or so? LIVING LIFE! I graduated my second stay in residential back in the summer (Northern hemisphere) and honestly have been living my best life since then. I am so happy and so fulfilled. Don't get me wrong, there has... Continue Reading →

I have been in treatment for my eating disorder(s) since October 2015. Before treatment I hated cooking, I hated eating, and I didn’t know what a meal plan was.

Before I went to treatment, having an eating disorder was "easy". I mean life is hard as hell when you have an eating disorder. But restricting my food was so habitual and so normal that the more I would restrict the more I could restrict. It was no problem to go days, weeks, and even... Continue Reading →
The picture I have used, is a triggering picture, and I'm sorry for that. But it emphasizes what this blog will be about. I have a hierarchy of symptoms. I have pride when I restrict or exercise, I have shame when I binge or purge. I have pride when I lose weight. I have shame... Continue Reading →
While in treatment I had to keep food records. I have kept these records and have hundreds of meals that meet a basic meal plan. I thought it would be fun to share them with you. I’ll write out the menus and maybe some basic recipes. I will also maybe share some thoughts/feelings I had... Continue Reading →
My residential referral has gone in and the process is going faster than I had expected. I had my phone interview on Friday and on Tuesday I have my full assessment. Since I've done this before, I know that they'll refer me to the residential program. If this process continues to be this accelerated then... Continue Reading →
