How Do You Keep Sight & Clarity?
When your recovery meets some bumps on the road, and the intense negative body image creeps up on you, how do get your mind back on track to what’s important to you and your plan to make it through?
What are some ways you remember yourself and what you really want?

I have safe people in my life who I'm able to sit down with and discuss what my goals are. These people are my partner, my friends, my sister, and my counsellor. Sometimes, I need them to remind me what I was like to be around when I was really sick and how much of a positive change it has been since I've been in recovery.
I also find that sitting back and even writing down what life was like back then compared to now and the things I've done in that amount of time that I wouldn't have been able to do when I was sick, is incredibly helpful. And most of all, practicing self-compassion for those bad days.
