This week due to insufferable illness I had to take three days off both work and working out. This tiny little break in my schedule made me contemplate the importance of reminding myself everything is slow in progress, and that it’s no race.
I had a blip, a small binge on Halloween. And yet, I forgive myself and move on. My schedule can resume once I am well and recovered. Only then can I achieve balance.
people be thinking that anorexia is the action of starving yourself and not an actual mental disorder. like you can have anorexia WITHOUT starving yourself. actively restricting is honestly late stages. people with anorexia can have it for years before starting self harm and some don’t ever do it!! it’s such a poisonous misunderstanding of the disorder. it’s like saying you’re only depressed when you’re actively self harming.
