After a 5 year struggle with anorexia (with purging tendencies), depression, self harm and over exercising I have now been recovered for 4 years and i use my blog to help others in the same situation i once was. I am now a happy and positive person who wants to inspire those struggling to choose recovery and to take control over life and happiness again!
Hi Izzy,
ReplyDeleteI know that you have already written about this, but I was wondering if you could write again about introversion. I am at the end of my recovery and expected that now that my thoughts and behaviours are no longer as restricted by food and my ED, I would all the time want to be with friends, going out etc, and the truth is, I am perfectly happy reading a book or watching a film and being on my own just thinking...I feel like I am not meant to be like this. I have lots of friends and enjoy being with them, but I find myself panicking if I have a day jam packed full of things that involve people, and I find that the last thing I want to do is go out in the evening to a club packed full of people etc...I would much rather stay at home and watch a film with friends etc. However, I feel embarrassed and guilty about this. I thought for so long that it was due to me ED that I liked to stay in etc, but I think it is because I am an introvert, because I do enjoy being with people, I do, I just like my quiet time too. However, I am having trouble accepting this, and people always ask me 'why aren't you going out tonight', and someone even went as far to say that I was boring. This really hurt me, and I feel like sometimes I just go out to please people and feel 'normal', when I'm not actually gaining anything from being out. My friends say that I'm fun to be with, and I am quite loud, and have a big personality, I'm just struggling to accept myself xx
