...See more I've been in recovery consistently since the beginning of September. The last two weeks, I fell into a major relapse with my eating disorder. My therapist was having trouble getting through to me, because quite simply: I didn't feel like I had a reason to recover. I didn't feel worth it. I stumbled across 7 Cups last night by chance during a mental breakdown. A kind listener, whom I've sadly forgotten the name of, helped me tremendously. Then I saw that I too could become a listener.  I quickly signed up and went through the initial training. Then I started my journey as a listener. I listened to about 20 people last night alone. Seeing all those people come to their own conclusions about their struggle made me feel proud and it made me feel worth it. Today I went to DBT group with a smile on my face. I complimented the girls I'd been afraid to talk to weeks prior. I said hello to someone who was standing alone. And this afternoon I brushed my relapse off and started fighting my eating disorder again. I'm so proud of myself today and I literally cannot put the appreciation I have for this site in adequate words. Thank you to the creators, and thank you to my fellow listeners for all being some pretty kickass people!
