All the previous posts were journal entries from the past couple of months. Now i I'm in the present and not having to read over things that happened a little while ago, its kind of scary. I suppose its like I'm having to deal with my problems as I'm writing about them. I don't know, confusing myself here.
Anyway,
over the last week, i have been doing some serious research into my eating disorder and self harm, as they are taking over my life at the minute. Its so frustrating because i want my relationship to be my main priority and i want to be here talking about how I'm working through that, as that is a slow, turtle progress itself. But for now i will look at it as, slow and steady wins the race. I suppose i should use that with my eating disorder and self harm too.
Back on track, i have looked into information on all sorts of things and found various youtube videos and blogs that have been really helpful and have given me some tips on how i should start to recover.
One Youtuber in particular is a lady called Kati Morton, who was recommended to me by a lovely subscriber. Kati is an american therapist, who makes videos on clinical information, tips, tricks, advice and just generally how to go about dealing with difficult situations you find yourself in within your eating disorder. Her videos have been so helpful for me, as they have given me some insight into what i need to be doing. Slowly i am attempting to give new things a try.
I also came across a blog called 'The Kissy project' Kristen battled with anorexia and she shares her daily life and how she is recovering. It is truly inspirational and a very uplifting blog and website to read.

Lets just say, researching and looking up information on ways i can help myself has been my first step to recovery. Before this, i wouldn't read anything or even want to know about anything because it just made everything real. It has taken me a while to come to terms with what i have going on with myself, so even though my progression is still very slow. I have made the tiniest start. And with that little step, i am happy.
