Just a quick reminder that I consistently do more videos than are posted here on the blog. In order to get notified of all the videos I do, please subscribe to my YouTube channel. I typically post on this site the Wednesday Warriors videos I make for a YouTube recovery collaboration, but that is a separate channel from my own and only a small portion of the eating disorder videos I create. I make recovery videos regularly- motivational, advice, and otherwise - and also respond to viewer questions, so make sure you're not missing out. :)

arielle, this is totally random, but do you know of any other blog groups based around recovery where there are more girls who are on a true path of recovery like yourself? Perhaps do you know of a support group where most of the people there have survived and recovered an eating disorder and are there to offer support? Is there a place I can go where I may find better support from those who are emotionally able to provide it? Is there somewhere safer, where if i admit to being suicidal someone might actually be able to help me? I am wondering because i am looking for more support since i dont have it in my home life.
I don't have the strength to pull through another relapse. I don't even know how to survive day to day anymore.
jadedchalice - I do not know of any other actual blog groups based around recovery. I do know there is the ED Blog Feed on my sidebar but many of the bloggers on there are not recovered like myself. There is a great forum webiteback.com on which I am a moderator. It is HUGE but has a ton of boards, resources, and lots of members in all areas of recovery as well as people who will give advice. Check it out.
As far as suicide stuff, PLEASE check out this older blog post of mine: http://tearstowords.blogspot.com/2010/06/suicide-what-you-need-to-know.html
You can also go here: http://www.suicideforum.com/
It's a great forum for those struggling with being suicidal. Lots of members and help.
For actual support groups in your area regarding eating disorders, check out anad.org and search by state if you are in America.
Take care of yourself!
I struggle with anorexia, and in order to keep my mind at ease, I constantly have to count, and re-count the calories I've eaten that day to make sure I'm staying under my limit. It borders on OCD, and is basically all I think about. How do I move towards recovery, if my brain is so completely and utterly filled with thoughts of calories and food? There is not a second in the day my mind is not engulfed in this nightmare.
Hello there,
I have a question for the webmaster/admin here at tearstowords.blogspot.com.
May I use part of the information from this post right above if I provide a link back to this site?
Thanks,
Harry
