I just found out one of my friends has died due to complications from anorexia. - January 22nd 2010, 10:01 PM

Last night. She struggled for two years.

This disease kills so many people. Don't let it take your life. Get help now.

this is deliberately not in grief. I do not want to talk about how I feel. I just wanted to let people know that yes you can die. she thought it "wouldn't ever happen to her" too.

I'm so sorry to hear that . As some one who struggled with it in the past, I can say that it's really hard but there is hope out there.

I'm so sorry Rachel. My best friend is recovering from Anorexia, almost lost her a few times, so I kind of understand.

If you need to talk, pm me.


She whispered to her own reflection "I will be strong."

Sorry to hear that and I think this is the kind of wake up call we all need, that it can be dangerous.


Come on boys, come on girls

You’re the diamonds, you’re the pearls
Let’s make a new tomorrow
Come on girls, come on boys
It’s your future, it’s your choice
And your weapon is your voice
Let’s make a new tomorrow
Today

Awww Rachel I am just ever so sorry to hear about your loss. When I read that, it did make me think twice about what I am doing to myself, and made me think I am really putting myself in danger, so thankyou for that. Once again, im ever so sorry for your loss. Losing a friend is awful

I am a complete and utter hypocrite. I have b/p'd twice in the last two days. For the first time in what has got to be 18 months. Fuckssakerachel. Worst thing? I don't even think that I care that much. I do not think this is a good sign. I don't want to flush 3+ years of recovery literally down the toilet.

Rachel,

I am so sorry about your friend and everything else. But, hang in there because you can beat this.

Sometimes tragedies have a way of making us relapse but the thing is you can beat this disease. I know you might not care right now but you will. Instead of letting this get too far out of control why not go talk to someone? Seek out a therapist. Not only can the therapist help you with your b/p they could help you deal with the grief you are suffering through.

Please hang in there and if you need anything please feel free to pm me.

Jenna
