There is another way. And yea...Thanks Lee- I agree. There is another way. And yeah, lots of work involved, but I am a great believer that recover is a real possibility for *anyone* with an eating disorder (not a train of thought shared with me by the professionals in the UK). Thank you for the reminder...it's very easy to get caught up in day-to-day struggles and lose sight of the fact that people can, and DO, move beyond this.elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15149712515785227561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2648777686689672361.post-19541573424154749522008-11-29T15:20:00.000+00:002008-11-29T15:20:00.000+00:00I think there is another way. I really do. People ...I think there is another way. I really do. People do get better. It comes from within. There is no pill to recover from a son of a bitch like Ed. It's all brain power. It's determination. It's knowledge. Honestly. Perseverance. Patience. Forgiveness.

I was first diagnosed at 13 and it came and went, but now, at 20, I am coming out again. But htis time feels different, this time is for real. There is so much love and purpose in this world that you can find as you lose your ED and gain yourself. (For the record I am absolutely not religious, thought I'd mention since I think the post sounded that way). <BR/><BR/>All I'm saying is it CAN be done. and the thoughts you are mentioning have definitely occurred to me.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!
