Annabelle (Shine.) has been engaging really well with ED services, and was brave and rang them yesterday to chase them up on an appointment they'd neglected to confirm.
Thank you, lovey! <3
Even though they have not rang me back... O.o
And YOU have been a hero, too!
For calming me down when I had my special moment and for being a genuine hero (I know you'll disagree with me; don't, you troll) over the weekend. You are a truly inspiring, intelligent, brilliant person to be around!
This thread made me feel really good seeing all the heroics! Keep it up guys.
For me I have been plodding along and successfully keeping safe ( I even get to wear my RYL one month free bracelet!! :D ) I am very nervous about starting my course but also very excited at the same time. So yeah.. I'm happy that I'm safe
Also I am seeing my psychiatrist today and last time wouldnt even go in the meeting so hopefully that will be my heroic act.
Sorry for the long post and well done again to everyone <3 to all!
the realy intervention team came today, and i sat with them and answered their questional honestnly.
and i am going to GPs this afternoon to discuss stomach pains, I have been putting it off as scared they will blame ED-ness and refuse to help on the basis that I'm doing it to myself. But have been sort of talked into going and I am going
He was no longer jean valjean but no. 24601 -les miserable
Some of life's mysteries will never be solved, such as why, after spending an entire evening listenong to Bach, do I find myself humming "the birdie song".......
I am reaching, but i fall, and the stars are black and cold, as i stare into the void of a world that cannot hold- les miserables
I'm so proud of all of you, you're all incredible. Special note for Hazel, because I think you've been fantastic today, you've dealt with a lot and been so brave. And for Belle, because you are utterly amazing, brave and I am very proud of you.
Um. I think I have been very brave over the last day and a half. Maybe.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
^^^ That's really good that you went to Camhs and engaged in support, Well Done!
I saw my Psychiatrist and Psychologist on Thursday and I had to talk about some upsetting things but I was ok and the outcome of the session was positive, they also put my medication down a bit.
I am also ether going to get my hair cut for the first time in 2 years hopefully this afternoon or sometime earlier next week. I'm getting it cut and dyed so it'll look really different!
And I'm going to see a film this afternoon, by myself, as a treat for being such a hero
Carmen, I think when you choose to do something healthy instead of destructive, that's heroic. Taking care of yourself, making positive choices, doing something constructive instead of destructive are all heroic, lovely. It doesn't matter how big or small you think it is, you're a hero for wanting to try.
Well done, everyone <3

Kia- congratulations on your driving theory!! You win! And I'm ever so proud of you for going to CAMHS and working with her. I'm so glad she seems to have put a helpful plan in place
Kat- Well done for seeing your case manager; I hope the meeting was helpful!
Clare- One month free! Hooray! That's really impressive :) I hope the psychiatrist appointment went well.
Hazel- well done for engaging with the early intervention team and for making a GP appointment- I sincerely hope they didn't troll you!
Claire-Rose- Throwing your 'implement' out is very heroic; well done! And yay for social interaction!
Marie- You have been very brave. *nods* Love you lots <3
Laura- well done for seeing ALL the professionals.
Mary- yay for getting showered and changed; that can be a monstrous task sometimes! I hope you gave yourself a sticker for that!
Carmen- you are most welcome here! You're not being a bother at all and I actually lol'd at the thought of there being guidelines here to mess up! Just jump in! Anything that is a bit pro-recovery counts :)
In Jenna-news, I had a giant flid-attack last night, and I asked for help, instead of breaking my 2 months free of a certain reckless behaviour. To continue this boring story, all the stress from asking for help has turned me mute for some stupid reason, but I'm going to go out today anyway, and try to talk. *frowns*
