hard on self

I just wanted to say that to all of us out there who have ed (and maybe some who dont) we need to take a step back and stop being so critical of ourselves. I do it and I am sure you do it. If you are here..you are try..therefore you are not a failure. You might have someday that you dont do as well as ou might like but that doesnt make you a failure. Over the years i have met so many people and let me tell you all this people with eating disorders are very strong people. To be so disciplined,then self depriving, but then everyone please try to remember this:EATING DISORDERS ARE DISEASES> THEY ARE NOT SOMETHING YOU CHOOSE TO HAVE> YOU DIDNT ASK FOR THEM. There gets to be a chemical imbalance in your brain, with your hormones. So some of this is out of your control and that is why most people cant over come it alone. As your nutritional status improves so does the thinking.
So the next time you want to call your self a **** up who cant do anything right. Try to remember what I said. You are all beautiful. My hope is someday that we all can see it. Keep fighting and keep your heads up!(I know it is hard when things get overwhelming)Keep fighting and dont give up. I havent..and trust me I have been trying for a while(but that doesnt matter) all that matters is that I keep trying..have a good day!
