I dont think i could be more happy that it is Friday, and so to say... almost weekend? :)
Does anyone have any plansss...?? :)
My friday looks a bit like this:
Civics class
Take the train with my class to the dump
sit for 2 hours on a bus and drive around the dump
Head home.... or whatever really?
Spend the next 2 days lying in bed???!! hahaha
My day is pretty exciting right??? :)
Nope not really... :)
And now.. here is a question to all you guys? Why arent you commenting??!! haha.. That was straight to the point right?
Dont worry, i get it... my blogging content isnt that great, not really anything to comment... i get it :) No stress, no pressure.
But once again, ill ask... is there anything you are wondering about or would like me to write about? Just let me know.... give me some ideas? :)
After a 5 year struggle with anorexia (with purging tendencies), depression, self harm and over exercising I have now been recovered for 4 years and i use my blog to help others in the same situation i once was. I am now a happy and positive person who wants to inspire those struggling to choose recovery and to take control over life and happiness again!

Life without Anorexia
My life at the moment is completely different to how it once was. I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia and depression as well as struggling with self harm and overexercising. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
And since 2012 i have been declared healthy from my eating disorder.
I have been blogging for 7 years, and my whole journey is written in my posts. I now represent healthy and happiness. I want to show anyone struggling that it is possible to recover, no matter how hard it may seem.
I now blog about recovery, my life, veganism and positivity!
If you have any questions leave them in the comment section as i am much quicker at answering there, otherwise you can always send an email: [email protected]
Hi! :) I have two questions:
ReplyDelete1) what's the dump?
2) could you write someting about tradiotional swedish cuisine? I'm very curious as I really don't know what you eat there!
Keep writing, I love reading your blog! Always remember how beautiful you are! <3
Thank you!
DeleteThe dump is basically the landfill? waste? haha... sounds like fun right?
Yes, i will write something about swedish cuisine!! :) If i dont write it in the next few days, please remind me.. i have a habit of forgetting.. :/

Hi Izzy,
ReplyDeleteSorry for not commenting! I read your blog every day but school has started again for me too and now I find myself so busy all the time and forget some basic interactional skills like letting you know how much I appreciate your blogs!
Like anonymous, I also have no clue as to what the dump is ;-)
I am glad your appointment at Mando went so well, and I felt you were very brave for going to the cafetaria for lunch instead of skipping it because it looked like you might have to eat on your own.

Hello :)
DeleteDont worry about it.. i know myself that with school i havent eben commenting on other peoples blogs, even though i read them... eveyrthing just gets so stressful! haha
I should have been more clear.. it was basically my teacher who said the 'dump'.. but its the landfill? where the waste goes?
Aww thank you... i know better now. And i knwo that if i skipped lunch once, i could easily start skipping it again... and that leads to a viscious circle! xx
Hi lovely Izzy!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for not commenting lately! I do read your posts every single day though, but sometimes I haven't got the time or the energy (lol) to leave a comment.
I get a bit down when you write about feeling alone and not being able to speak to your mum, because I recognize a lot of myself when I was a teen!
The only advice I feel to give you is this: it's only a phase, a momentary (and pretty difficult) stage of your life, THINGS WILL GET BETTER. In fact, they will get exactly the WAY YOU WANT THEM TO BE.
Being a teen, living with parents and going to school is a hell of a hard time, probably the most difficult. You almost always feel like you are put there, in a place you haven't chosen to be in, with people you haven't chosen to be with. Therefore, I'll repeat myself an tell you this: TRY TO FOCUS ON THE FUTURE, let yourself go to your wishes and dreams. What will you be doing
after high school? Where will you go?
You've got a whole exciting life ahead of you. Stay happy!
P.s Sorry for the very long comment :)
Dont worry. I know how it is.. i read many other blogs, and i sometimes forget to leave a comment, either cus i dont have time or energy.. :)
DeleteDont feel pressured or anything to comment!! :)
You are right... i mean, i know its hard now... but things will get better. Even if it doesnt seem like it... its just to continue being strong, even thought that feels like all i am right now... all im doing, is being strong? hah
Definitely a place i dont want to be with people i dont want to be with... (im nice, right??!! hah)
I would think of the future... but i get anxiety about the future, so i prefer to not think so much about it. Apart from wishing that things would change... and wish for how i want my future to be!!
I more focus on the now... but that can be tough when things are hard.... but things will get better!!
Dont worry :) Long comments are nice... i always have more to reply to then... :) xx
Hi :)
ReplyDeleteI've discovered your blog by chance some days ago and since then I've been checking it almost every day! :) I really like your blog and I think it's really great what you have already reached and how brave you fought against Anorexia! I'm from Germany and anorexic for almost 3 years and it's great to read daily about someone whose life has gone so well and who had the will to fight against the ED. And that you were successfull! You have my respect! During the last couple of years I've had my ups and downs and right now I have to start fighting the ED again because about 2 months after I was finally allowed to go home after being in hospital for 5 1/2 months it got worse and now I'm underweight again .. :/ But your blog really gives me hope and energy! :)
Go on, you're great and beautiful just the way you are <3
greetings,
Jana
Thank you!
DeleteRecoverying is hard and its easy to relapse... but please keep strong, and fight against your ed... you dont want to end up in hospital again... so much time is wasted there...
I know you can recover, its tough... its a struggle and its hard.. but you can recover.. and its worth it! YOU ARE worth it!! You deserve a much better life!
If i can recover, so can you!!!

I read your blog every day too! I dont know why I like reading it so much, I am subscribed to other people who update daily but I usually skim read them. Yours makes me feel normal and hopeful. I think its because you just seem like a really nice person and self confident & independent but with the same insecurities as everyone else. Most importantly you've managed to kick anorexia's butt, but are not too idealistic to let us know that you do have times where you think about it.
ReplyDeleteI second Jana - I think you're great too! and I'm sure you'll make lots of friends at your new school, it justs takes time to get to know people. They are probably all thinking the same things you are.
xx
Haha, that is a very good question? i ask myself that sometimes... 1) why people read my blog and 2) why i like reading other peoples blogs? im not so sure really!! :)
DeleteYup, thats pretty much how it is... like, i can come across as really strong and independant.. no worries! But really, as most of my readers know.. i have my insecurities and doubts and still get anxiety sometimes...
I think it is important for people to know that, yeah recovering from anorexia is a huge thing, it does make life easier... but it also doesnt mean that all your worries and issues are gone. There is alot to work with, mentally. And that, recoverying from anorexia doesnt mean that all the thoughts are gone.. it just means that you are stronger then the thoghts... that you know better, you know how to handle situations...
Thank you so much!! xx
Hey Izzy! Actually, there is a few things that i'd like to say to you.
ReplyDeleteI love to read your blog, and I tell you this daily, or almost anyways haha.
I am glad that you are doing well, I hope you have a great weekend.
Would you mind writing about how you recovered mentally in the last few months before you were happy? I seem to be stuck there, and it's leading to a relapse. I can't seem to get over it, and I was just curious.
That's my main question right now.
I'm always happy to read everything you post, it's always interesting to me. It's wonderful, and you're a truly inspiring person. I hope that one day I can be where you are. (:
Aww thank you :)
DeleteYou will reocver one day.. you will be happy and confident with your body!! :)
yes.. ill try to get around to writing that...
Not so sure how much i can write though? but ill try :)
