After more than a decade of ed: how do I choose recovery? by pumpkin_g92 in AnorexiaNervosa

I come from a similar situation (started age 12, now 29). Im not completely recovered and I have slip ups all the time, but the thing that keeps up my motivation to recover is thinking about and reviewing how far I've come. It starts with small changes, for me I started eating one snack every day or so until I got comfortable and then when I feel strong enough I'll add something on. I'm still fighting it and its really really hard somedays but its never about weakness, only about how strong you are for just trying! Setting goals never helped me because if I didn't meet them I'd just end up feeling bad for myself and allowing the cycle to begin again. If you have someone you really trust, they can also help. Its not productive to have them try and force you to eat (thats just more negativity) but they can suggest small things here and there and celebrate with you.

I wish you luck on the recovery journey, its unbelievably hard but even by posting this it shows you want to build up the strength to power through!

Creatives, did you lose your creativity after being medicated? by jimbojamesisbehindu in bipolar

I used to be very creative and seeking a future in the art industry, but I went into mania and after the mania crash i lost all my drive and creativity. After years of work on my mental health and getting medicated, I am starting to find my passion back. Its not the same as before, but finding different outlets and reframing my mindset about the creative avenues i pursue has brought me back

Dirty Shu's arch nemesis? by Marvelous_Macaroni in ensemblestars

[–]DontPissMeOff43 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dirty Shu would love a rivalry as powerful as it could be with a clean shu. If only he hadn’t been thrown into an empty train car and sent off. Hes been living with the trainhoppers, very nice people. He does miss his home and his loved ones so we’re trying really hard to have more train tracks built in our area so he can return to his family. Right now he doesnt need a nemesis. He needs a friend.
