So here're are my stats..
Name: Mary
ED: Ana, with Mia tendencies
Length of ED: I only consciously realized it 2 years ago, but the habits began about 6 years ago.. i just thought I was weird.
Reasons for recovery: I'm sick and tired of constantly feeling bad about myself, being scared of food that i love, having friends/family worry about me and feeling resentful towards them for their concern, and being so obsessed with it that i can't be happy and lead a 'normal' life.
5 things i love about myself: my dimples, singing voice, being a good listener, loving to help people, writing ability (it took me about half an hour to think of those 5...i'm serious)
Ok well, I hope this community is useful to those of us out there who want a fuller life w/o EDs :) please join, and help promote!
