Hi sweetie, it's great to hear how much you want to fight this.

What worked for me was having my parents in contol of my food. I know it's a scary thought but it's such a relief to hand over the responsabilty - trust me.  I was in hospital and when I came out me and my parents worked together.

They would prepare my meals and snacks, bring them to me and sit with me while I ate. It was hard at first, but it got easier. Perhaps you could ask of them the same thing?

 Keep fighting x

Hey hunni, (I hope you got my last message on my other post. This kind of relates to it too!)

You must not let ana back into your head. Kick her out again. If its deadly voice even dares to tell you anything you know you shouldnt be doing block it out. Dont do it. What good is going to come of its killing demands? Keep ana out of your life, dont let yourself be taken over again. Tell these thoughts to STOP.

Stay Strong and hope you are ok, lizzie xx

Hey babe x

You have had all this really bad hunni. Give yourself a break and take your mind off of all this. I know i keep saying it but maybe it will help you to sort out your worries and thoughts and to keep on the recovery track. You must not give up now. Its not fair to yourself...

To be honest i think it can be hard to find yourself at times but when you feel happier you will have less bad thoughts from yourself and then you can focus on getting rid of the bad ones your ed is feeding you!

You can beat this hunni, i know it. Always here for you, Lizzie xx
