I’m sitting here with tears in my eyes. I can’t
believe how sweet people can be! All the things they say to me really make a
difference in my life. They motivate me and help me to see that I am worth it,
and it’s not always I think I am. I’ve gotten to know so many fantastic people
through this process, it’s almost unbelievable. Or well, it is unbelievable.
The nurses, other patients, people through tumblr and Instagram and etc.
It is quite funny that my new friends are the one that are my most supportive
friends. Maybe that is because they know. They know what I am going through and
either have been through it or are going through it. We don’t affect each other
negatively, not at all. We motivate and support each other. I love it and I LOVE
them! Worst part is that they live very far away, mostly in other countries. But
we send packages and letters to each other to brighten up each other’s days :)
There
are so many people I am thankful for that the list would never end! My family
members, close friends and not so close friends. I’m first now realizing how
many people actually care about me, and it’s a fantastic feeling. My ED made me
think no one cared, that I was unloved and unwanted, but that was just the ED
talking. Sometimes that feeling comes back, but I manage to beat it down,
distract myself by watching TV, surf Tumblr and instagram or do other things I
like. Sometimes I even feel so strong that I eat! Unbelievable but true.
Stay strong! ♥
