One of the greatest things I needed to learn and remember and consistently reinforce for myself and my ED recovery friends, was that becoming a recoverer, meant being able to make things all about me sometimes.
And sometimes, that means making your recovery your number one priority in your life, keeping your commitment to yourself to keep yourself healthy and safe above all other commitments or passions in your life.
We are the kind of people that want so much to please others, it is indeed the very nature of our disorder. Yet, in order to recover we have to simply take the time, NO rather, we simply have to GIVE ourselves the time and resources and permission to be self-focused in this way, in order to make it happen.
Recovery is about you
your health
your strength
your life
You
