PARTY OF TWO

This makes me really sad to post, but I think it’s a good reminder. Birthdays with an eating disorder… You think you’re in control, you think you are safe, you think numbing all your true pain is the answer, you think you aren’t good enough, you think you don’t deserve anything that makes you happy, you think punishing yourself will make the false wrongs you think you did right, you think this will make you happy and fill the voids in your life. Of course I’m going to tell you that it’s all not true. It’s hard to change the tapes in our head replaying negative messages and events we’d like to forget, but it is possible. Don’t give up on yourself and start right now by doing something kind for yourself no matter how difficult. ~Britt
