Your brick story

About agreeing to soul survivor festival and then backing out last minute, and going to latitude festival only to freak out afew hours in and having to make a sos call to my parents to drive hours to come and get me.
About wishing I was recovered enough from my anoreixa to face days off of meal plan,out of routine,with crowds of people, and knowing deep down i'm not.
About the fraustration of not being ill anymore - but not being well either... and how to navigate the inbetween stages of that...

    Dear Pointeless, It sounds like you feel you are in a kind of mid way limbo - This is a difficult place of transition in any healing. This is when the small steps that you take will stand you well for the future. Whatever you have done to come this far, and with who ever has supported you, and sensing the strength that you have to make this journey - this is what will continue to be important. Wishing you warm hugs and love UMxx

    I feel that you have made very positive steps to protect yourself - backing out of something that felt too much for you, and calling for help from your parents to get you to a safe place.

    Knowing that you are not well enough, knowing that you are not recovered, that is really positive and good self-knowledge.

    Wishing you all the best

    Hi P, And I want to wish you all the best also. Have you worked with someone to make a plan for times like this? Maybe it is a good time to write down all of the things that you can do now but weren't able to do before? best wishes ant.
