This gives me a lot of hope. Thank so much for this Hankster. I have gone cold turkey on my FOO this past year. It has been painful and difficult. However it is has allowed me to grow in ways I wouldn't have been able to before. I know it takes time to do this, but right now, I believe what I have been told/shown.
I wish I could love and value myself and feel good about me, but it feels like learning a different language. I'm glad that you have gotten to a place of self acceptance and recognizing your self worth.
