Life without Anorexia

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

I am a generally happy girl who loves running, going to the gym and eating food!! Though my life has been very different.
I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia & purging tendencies & over exercising. I was depressed and self harmed. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
After alot of struggles, lots of ups and downs, suicide attempts, tears, anxiety, panic and never thinking i would be healthy.
I am now declared healthy from anorexia nervosia.

I have been blogging for 4 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 am happy and healthy and living my life. Going to school, meeting friends and trying to find myself in this world.

I write about my daily life, but also try to write posts about how it was when i was sick, advice and tips.
I am open and friendly, so dont be scared about writing a post or sending me an email at: [email protected]

Feeling full

That uncomfortable feeling when you have eaten too much ... Yup, me at the moment.
   For some reason, i think my stomach has shrunk... Or just the fact that my apetite is at zero...  So its extra important for me to eat more... which i forced myself to do today.
   And now all i want to do is lie down and not move at all.... because moving makes me feel like puking (thats how full i am).
  But instead, i haveto get ready for school -_-


The full feeling after eating is common when you start recovery, as your body isnt used to the amount of food... and it takes time for your body to adapt. But my best advice, just try to relax. If you get anxiety because you feel full, do something calm like writing or drawing, playing an instrument or just lieing down. Infact sleeping can help you digest food..
   Drinking some herbal tea can also help...

But know that it is ok to feel full.... its an uncomfortable feeling. But it will pass.... ad in time, yes it can take a few weeks, it will pass. You just need to let your body adapt. And remember, that eating food is ok. And if you need to gain weight, or like me to eat ALOT of food, then know that you are doing your body good!!! :)
