Life without Anorexia

My motto is
'Dont let the sadness of your past & the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present'

My life at the moment is completely different to how it once was. I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia and depression as well as struggling with self harm and overexercising. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
And since 2012 i have been declared healthy from my eating disorder.

I have been blogging for 7 years, and my whole journey is written in my posts. I now represent healthy and happiness. I want to show anyone struggling that it is possible to recover, no matter how hard it may seem.

I now blog about recovery, my life, veganism and positivity!

CF clinic

To all of my new readers/followers - Hello & welcome to my blog :) If i havent already said it already!!

Today theres no school for me - i would have only had a half day anyway.
  But today im going to the CF clinic - and to all of you who are new, you might not know that i have another illness called  Cystic Fibrosis. Which affects my lungs&stomach. And im supposed to go for monthly check ups (Before i had to go for check ups every 2 weeks. Glad that time is over!) But i havent been to the hospital in about (Just calculated) 8 months.... *Eeeeek* Im pretty sure the doctors are gonna be mad at me.
   But i havent gotten the letters/notifications(?) they sent home - i.e about when im supposed to go there. So its not really my fault.
 
Though the fact is, if i get sick due to my CF, it can have very bad consequences. Though luckily enough i havent been sick in the past 8 months. Which is actually quite amazing, as all my life i have - and always will - eat loads of pills (though now that im so healthy *touch wood* i have cut back on some of my medicines... which not even sure if im allowed to do? Buts its my body) and while growing up i spent alot of time in hospital. I spent about 30% of the year in hospital and 30% of the year at home sick. (almost eveyr year) so i mean it wasnt exactly the greatest childhood. Hahah. But i guess i just accepted that that was how my life was going to be.
 
But you know what... that isnt how my life is going to be. Since Mando, i have actually vowed that i will never spend another night in hospital - though of course i dont have so much control over that, as if i do become very sick de to my CF, i might have to spend 1-2 months in hospital with an IV. (lets not think about that!)

But i believe i am so healthy because i am  very active (which is very important when you have CF) ad i eat alot of healthy food & enough calories for my body (as one thing about having CF is that your body has it harder to take up nutrients and energy, and can often mean that people with CF are underweight - i was always underweight growing up. But now im not. Because i know how to eat enough for my body, and eat enough of the right food.)
   Another reason why i love living healthy, and why it is so good!! ^_^

Ok, it just became a very informative post ;)

So im going to spend a few hours at the hospital at the CF clinic -_- Not so fun at all. (I would prefer to be in school). And then this evening i am actually going to have to start writing on my essays!!!
