‘Think before you speak, everyone’s beautiful.’
Don’t be the reason someone goes without a meal tonight, or the reason they end up on their knees after eating. Even if you think it is funny they may not.
You wish you had an eating disorder? Is that so? So you want to cry everytime you look into the mirror too long? You want to lie to everyone you love when they ask why aren’t you eating? You want to learn to hate yourself in a way you never thought you could? You want to workout for hours at a time so you can feel pretty? You want to force yourself to throw up until the point of tears? You really want this hell that most have to deal with every day of their life? No. Believe me when I say I wish I never started hurting myself in this way. This is a mental disease, not a choice.
Be careful what you wish for.

"So I have this problem with not eating enough, really. And lately (like the past two-three-four probably 3 days) I've eaten more, not like normally but like snacking and stuff and I feel guilty and fat and disgusting and horrible. But I can't really stop, now I sort of want to eat, but not really, I eat a lot of (not a lot, but a lot for my standards) of junkfood. How do I stop eating again?"
Okay here this is what you do. You go to the bathroom, lock the door behind you. Take off your shirt but leave your bra on, see the key is to really look at every single feature of your body. Your thighs, stomach, arms, chest, just every single part. Now you know that self hate you are feeling right now? Stop it. Look at your body again but this time don’t look at the negatives, no look at the posotives.
You know that stomach you hate so much? Yeah that will be the one to carry a baby for you one day. A beautiful, beautiful baby that will love you just like you are. Those arms you hate so much? Yeah those will be that arms that will wrap around your parents, best friends, or future boyfriend who all love you just like you are. That chest you wish would shrink, yeah that is were your heart is. The thing that makes you even more beautiful on the inside.
Now, go to your fridge or pantry, and grab everything you have been cutting back from yourself and eat it. You know that guiltyness you are feeling for eating it? Don’t be. You are beautiful just the way you were made. Starvation is not the awnser. Don’t hurt yourself to try and be somebody’s else of beauty. You are perfect the way you are. x
Feel those tears? Wipe them.
Holding that razor or lighter? Put them down.
Holding those pills, that gun, or that rope? Step away from them.
In front of the toilet ready to throw up your meal? Get off your knees.
Looking at an empty plate? Put something on it and eat.
Feel that frown on your beautiful face? Well turn it around.

Relapse is a part of recovery.
When you look in the mirror, stop hating everything that is wrong with you. Look past how you look, look past the image of the girl, and look inside. I promise you that you are beautiful. You may not see it, you may not know it, but you are. You have two options, you can either learn to hate yourself for what you are not or learn to love yourself for what you are. I hope it is the second one.
Don’t let what others think stop you from being happy. It isn’t worth it.
Just because you relapse does not mean you are a failure. Relapse is a part of your recovery. You will have times you slip and break but that in no way means you are a failure. Recovery takes time, it takes try’s, it takes work, and it takes falls. If you relapse, you didn’t fail you just slipped. Take a deep breath and start over. You will get there, don’t doubt yourself.
Dust yourself off, and try again. Don’t give up.
I want you to stop if you are honestly thinking about purging or ‘trying’ to stop eating. You may think it will make you beautiful but it won’t. All that it will do is unleash a hell you never want to see. If you are thinking about trying to purge only once it will not happen that way, you will want it more. You will need it. It will in turn take over your life. Bulimia and Anorexia are not things that go away, they are always there trying to get you. Ana will make you believe you are un beautiful and that no one will love you. Mia will force you to hurt yourself every time you eat. These diseases are not something to be messed with. If you want to live in hell, and in turn destroy yourself try it. Anorexia and Bulimia are not something you want to have.
Please, stop and think before you act.
