Hello All,
I am in recovery from a life of restricting, purging, overexcersing, and hating myself. For once in the 20 years of my life, I actually feel good about myself!
Anyways, I've started a blog- a different approach to thinking about ED recovery: with intellectual curiosity.
Please read, hope it helps, and comment if it does or doesn't!
You are all so brave for working on making your life worth living!

A Chance (x-posted)
Short poem about vaguely wanting to recover from anorexia.
(A Chance)
The buzz of a fleeting shape floats past
all shadow, inward, searching through
dark cafe windows. Home at last
she starts to shape her heart into
a mold unbreakable and clean
from bits of plastic. She'll make do.
She's been this way since age fourteen,
Outside a shiver, blaze within.
It's lose or lose, a pound, a love,
a chance to live,
a fleeing dove
a chance to catch a falling book
with pages blank with promised light,
a chance to turn the gaping looks,
a chance to live, to make things right.

a few things
Here are a few art things I've been up to... collage mostly. I'm aware I've posted some before but wanted to show them in context with the others. Some are ED themed, some just mental illness themed, some are random.
