Recovery

[Britishgal]

Hey guys
I'm so happy to have found a place to talk to like-minded people and would like to start by confessing something.
I was diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa last year and am currently nearly out of recovery...I feel great!
At first I was ashamed to think I could be so stupid to have let myself get so ill, but now I realise this is a positive thing as I turned out ok and now I can help others with the same troubles.
If anyone is reading this with anorexia...get help.
It may seem so terrible to think of someone controlling what you eat and telling you what to do, but when you are recovering you realise that you were in a very dark place.
When I had the disease I felt that I had turned my back on God and my family, but now I feel that God never left me. All the bad things which happen to us happen for a reason.
So...keep strong guys and that applies to any ilness...we can beat them!

I'm glad you're doing better and have such a positive outlook on it all!

G-d bless.

Hey!

Good, for you!
I must say that when I was 12-14 I suffered from anorexia as well. I know how hard it is to go through; and I'm so happy you seeked help!
For the first year or so after recovery, I would still see myself as fat, and hate myself everytime I would binge eat.
But now I know the binging was because my body was only begging me to give it the nutrition I was depriving it of.
I'll be praying for you to stay strong and continue to recover. You can message me anytime. =)

God Bless you kid. That is amazing, remember: your testimony is your fire-power.
I want you to sing this over yourself!!
"Who the Son set free, She is Free indeed! And there ain't no chains that can hinder me! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!"
