Another sunny day in hell

Move on to today . Be kind , do good. Leave the past behind. We Autistics get too stuck on the past

Hi there, don't be hard on yourself, your human. The challenges that face us or mistakes we make are a learning for us. Think, reflect and try to do better, challenges and mistakes are lifes way of teaching us lessons. One must be kind to one self and others. Forgive yourself and be sincere in your apology to anyone you may have hurt. Whatever challenge one may face in life, one can always make it better. Look to the colours of the rainbow rather than the thunderstorm. 

It's ok, nothing is your karma. Why not look at is as your growing, learning and doing better. We should never be hard on ourselves, we must remember we are human. Our challenges in life are our life's lessons. Reflect on why you did what you did. Be sincere to yourself and the other. Forgive yourself as well as asking for forgiveness and then purify your heart and soul again, by ensuring nothing will be repeated and let it go and move on. Tomorrow's another day to be and do better. Always see the colours of the rainbow rather than the thunderstorm.

Honestly, they have a lot of theories! It's not really about body image...with me it was never really to do with how I looked, it was far more to do with how I felt. I've had it since I was 13. It's just a habit now. An addiction that keeps coming back. I wouldn't feel real without my ED.

In what way or ways does your Eating Disorder make you feel real?

I don't think you're prying at all. Thank you for listening.

Sorry, Giraffe. I didn't mean to pry. I'm genuinely interested.

i'm sorry you feel this way, i hope you feel a bit brighter soon, we are all here to help if we can

Food issues are predominately about control. Due to a feeling of self-loathing.

Have they been able to get to establish the cause of the ED?  Is it to do with control? Or body-image?
