HI, LITTLE ONE, keep in mind that I am here for you. I know how uncomfortable you feel. Your body just dosen't feel good enough and you can control eating to feel better.
Some ways I slowly changed was, I journaled my notebook honestly. (some things I wrote were helping me to stay in the illness, but I had to write out stuff anyway and as long as you keep checking and reading past and present posts in the E.D. room you can heal)
Secondly, I weighed myself and decided to take on a exercise daily activity and to weigh out the proper amount of food that I needed truly to live. I refered to the heart association cookbook and diabetic association cookbooks. I than just ate and put less thought in meals but did eat by clockwork.
Please IM me now and than and keep me current. Do you self harm as well. I did. I would burn on myself. Anyway, now instead I do "praniama" breath work regularly. I breathe out a few extra breaths and take in only one for every 4 or 5. I read some books that helped me especially a book called Many Paths to Nirvania by Dali lama. He explained my afflictive emotions and that actually put in a nut shell many irritating things about my body as well. This is only what is working for me.
Also I decided to use my anerexia for benefit. So when I starve for more days than I know I should, I force myself to bravely do a carrer move. I am a writing student and so I write a book when I can. Just caring about you is good for me. Never is it too late. Tomorrow can be a new day, infact tonight we could start. Lets breathe together. I will breathe a breathe for you my friend little one and we can be OK!! by the way it is ok to be skinny. just be yourself and become happier nomatter what shape your body wishes to be in. Just ignore that body and let your mind kick in and you may want to start eating nonfat cottage cheese, or nonfat yougurt. Than you may wish to eat shelled sunflower seeds, macadamia nuts, soymilk, maybe try the Adventist brand meat analogs and not stay entirely away from Kentucky Fried Chicken Resturant. I just let myself go after I read that book mentioned above. It is all going to be all right hon. Really. Just believe and read past and present E.D. posts because I noticed that they are very very good here at Psychcentral, I am not surprised. Man we have a good fellowship here Blessings and Peace in every department Littleone.
