Week 13: Image Inspiration

"Trauma is survivable, but not much more. It kills you while allowing you to still live." 

I thought about these words for some time and concluded that they pretty much sum up my whole experience of anorexia. Time stands still.  But it can’t forever otherwise no one would ever recover.

What I find so humbling is walking out of that place where time stood still for far too long.

Now is the time to:

 

Wear my gold hoop earrings that I have always kept only for special occasions

Go to the places I've always wanted to go

Wear a bikini to the beach and feel good about my body

Read all the books I want

Paint my nails red

Talk to people instead of shying away

Wear beautiful clothes everyday

Go to concerts

Eat what I want

Watch Johnny Depp movies on repeat 

Feel

Breathe

Be

Live

Now is glorious in more ways than I can express! And I hope people always believe in themselves and continue to work towards recovery for that very reason. ♥
