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!

Words hurt


^^This is one of the truest things.

I have written about how words hurt many times before, so i am not going to repeat myself. But this is definitely something we should all remind ourselves. Making a comment about someone, or saying something nasty about someone - whether its straight to their face or behind their backs, nether is acceptable, as those words can truly hurt.

For me, i can take alot of physical pain. I mean, after years of inflicting so much physical pain towards myself - it was almost like i had turned off the pain, it was like i couldnt feel it anymore. Hence why i self harmed even more, trying to get rid of the mental, emotional pain.

But the thing which will break me, is words. They affect me like daggers being stabbed..... I have never been bullied, and hopefully never will be, so i cant ever imagine how it is to be bullied.
  But i mean, things which some people say - witout really thinking, or when you argue with someone. Those types of things can really break me.

If everyone was just more careful with words, i belive that people would feel so much better.

One thing which i dont understand is peoples need to bring other people down. To critisize and bully others, so that they feel better about themselves? I just dont know.
