Where did 'I' go?

I, me, the person who I'm staring at when I'm looking the mirror.. what happened? You're not the person I used to know.

You're healthy, you're wound free, you're not surviving but there seems to be life, there seems to be a reason that you're breathing.

You will eat with control, you will cope without harm, you do not need to give in, that voice is no longer in control of you, you are in control of it. You are bigger and stronger than she ever was.

I am recovered, and this is now I, me, the person who I'm staring at in the mirror.

My Scars Remind Me That My Past Is Real

Just to take a breath each day is sometimes the hardest bit to enjoy about ourselves.

Wow, that's really lovely and powerful to read. I'm so pleased for you. Well done on getting to this point.



Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world awaits in darkness for the light that is you.

Thanks guys. It was pretty much the only way of putting it without putting a life story :P

Thats beautiful, be so proud of yourself.



♥ .I'm going to fall like I don't need saving. ♥
...My smile's just the armour I built when I was alone...

There was some part of me that hurt so badly, that I wouldn't ever be able to forget it.
It faded but the memories could bring it back any second, keeping me in the moment.
It would never fully heal. I could never really be free. I could never really be fixed.
Now I just have to work out how to live whilst being broken.
I feel like I'm dying.
