I know I do sometimes... I just can't take it anymore and want to be able to eat and not worry and not have to avoid social situations and basically, just learn to be happy with my body. But I still have 10lbs to go and it scares me too much to try and be happy until I lose them.

Anyone else consider recovering? What do you do?

Yeah I do-all the time. I want to stop. I hate the way I feel-I’m just tired, but I’ve come such a long way and I don't want to go back. I am getting help-but even that gets too hard sometimes. I don't even know where I want to go. I don't want to die. I don't want to suffer and I don't want to hurt every time I eat - but I don't want to go back to the way I was.

I wouldn't know what it's like, so I just don't know. I don't know what "normal" feels like.

I mean, to me, being "normal" doesn't mean only being satisfied with my body---it also means being a healthy weight AND not seeing a monster in the mirror. And I've not seen myself in a normal way in a mirror for most of my life.

I just have no concept of what other people see.

That's a dumb way to put it. But actually, I"ve never bought a mirror in my life and I've never had one in any home I've lived in. I just refuse. There are bathroom mirrors over the sinks, but thank God there is such a thing as cloth to hang over them. I only use the mirror to pin up my hair.

Rose said it.
I'm tired, but restless too.
It must be a beautiful thing to eat without calculating how much you'll have to exercise later that evening to compensate for dinner with friends.
I wish I could see what other people see when they look at me.

Guys, I know exactly how you feel, I feel the same way.

So, I've decided to do it. Not try. Do it. It's going to fucking work, I'm sick of this. I choose to live.

A lot of my inspiration came from this website: www.anorexicweb.com
It's huge and not great appearance-wise, but it told me so much. It's written by someone who has recovered, I recommend you check it out if you need a little push to start doing what you really want to.

If anyone wants support and motivation to do this with me, pm me and I'll give you my email address.

I'm scared as hell, but I will succeed, dammit. Because I'm strong. And you are too.

Think happy xx

I haven't visited the site, Adalia, but I just wanted you to know how glad I am that you were here for us. Any time you want to chit-chat, and I do mean real chit-chat not about diets and crap, please feel free to drop me a line. Hugs and more hugs, stay sweet! Rose

I've tried to recover, a few times. I hate anorexia and I would love to recover. But I would love to be thin even more than that, which is why I always come straight back to ana as soon as I begin to gain weight.

I haven't gained!! It's been a week now, and I let myself get on the scales this morning - I've even lost half a pound! I'm so so relieved.

I'm going to Paris tomorrow, though, so I'll have to be careful. But thanks for your support everyone, and you can do it too if you want to!!

Can't believe I didn't gain - I'm eating like 1,000 more cals a day... it's seriously scary.

Just to wish you a good journey to Paris!

I hope you'll have a safe and pleasant trip, and if you like, will share your experiences with us in the recently opened Travel Forum.

That is why I would not critizise so-called Pro-Ana-movement until there is nothing left and every part of it is forbidden. There are surely loads of bad things about it but what it shows the most, to me, is that the people have the need to talk.

Personally, I don't have an ED, I think, but I know the feeling just wanting to be normal, just like the others, living carefree, very well, too. Sad
I've got other disorders that also have some influence on my eating habits and I hope it will never become an ED, since I am not Pro-ED at all.

I hope for all of us that we'll be free of any kind of obsession one day. Love
