I need help just now. I'm struggling - I hate to admit it but I am. I just don't know where to get help. I have so much crap in my head just now. I hate it.
“I am angry that I starved my brain and that I sat shivering in my bed at night instead of dancing or reading poetry or eating ice cream or kissing a boy...”
I feel so alive. I think I might actually be letting go of Ed, really lettiing go. I can and do imagine being recovered. I am living recovery. It's hard and it's up and down and all over the place, but believe me, it's worth it.
"The hardest part is admitting that you have a problem" WTF? Whoever said that has clearly never had a real problem. Admitting it might be hard, but not nearly as hard as dealing with it on a daily basis or facing up to it in order to change it.
'Time is a great healer' Time is NOT a great healer. Time and effort and hard work on yourself or a problem is a great healer. This cliche makes everything sound so passive. People can hang on to things for years and time can do nothing, unless that person is prepared to face up to things themself.
