I have been struggling lately with being close to relapsing with purging. I could really use a supportive message since lately I have felt very down on my appearance, and myself in general. Also I really like that you've made this thread exist, I think it can help many people. Your a very nice and kind wonderful person 💖

Hi lovely,

I just want you to know that I think you are beautiful inside and out. No matter what that inner voice tells you, you are more than enough and so capable of fighting it and overcoming this. You can get through all of this, it won't be easy but you are a strong warrior and can do this. You are amazing and we all care about you.

Love from Lilly

Hey Love,

I hope you are doing well. As for the overeating, I can't really give advice but just try listening to what your body needs. Even if you do overeat please remember that it doesn't define you and tomorrow is a whole new day and you can start afresh. You are a lovely person who can get through this all.

Love from Lilly

Hello people of ED Support, Encouragement, and Tips (I hope), #EDWarriors

One tip someone could give to me would be that you cannot do this (recovery) alone. I know that fairly well, but that does not mean I know where to look or who to turn to for help.

Nearly one and half years ago now :( someone asked me (on the phone, thankfully?), do I want help with my ED? That was all, how she put it and I was very offended. I was like umm yeah, that's the whole reason I called you in the first place! :( Though I did not say that. Based on what she said next, I knew that she was not going to be a good support for me at that time, which was indeed very frustrating. I had come to the point already of knowing: 1. I need help and 2. I cannot do this on my own (aka I need support).

Anyway, I guess I need to reach out again, yes *again* :( ; which is so very hard because: 1. people don't understand, 2. some people don't even try or don't care to understand, and 3. explaining what I've tried and who I've met with or even what I am looking for is (often) exhausting, mental work.

It is annoying how people think: "oh she looks fine, why doesn't she work?" or "I just saw her eat a peanut butter sandwich, she must be fine." But they don't know that: 1. that might be all I'd eaten that day, and 2. I see their judgements of me -and they hurt.

So I guess, all of this to say, I need help. I am sick of feeling discouraged. It would be nice to enjoy food, instead of eating "because I have to."

I'm sorry if this is depressing to you, the one reading this. I guess I just want someone to know at least a bit of where I am coming from (in relation to food). Thank you for reading. ~ Platy

Hey Platy,

Sorry for the late reply lovely, I read it and meant to reply but must have forgotten. I do truly apologise. I hear you, I get wanting to be able to eat for enjoyment and not because it is something I have to do in order to fight. Fighting is great and all but it is okay to want more. More will come with time. I agree with your point about not doing recovery alone. Initially this is something I faced big time, I chose recovery and I was gonna do it without telling anyone because very few people noticed the issue in the first place. Finding the right people to support you is half of recovery and the issue with recovering anyway. It takes time but once you find them it makes all the difference. I want to be that person. I can be one of those people for you. Along with so many people on here. We want the best for you and I am going to say recovery fits in nicely. If you ever need us send me a message or a post tag. I am here for you. And this time I will reply promptly because somehow I forgot this time around.

Lots of Love from Lillyheart
