Isolation leads to a cycle of symptoms

Society says you’re worth nothing, so you isolate to stay safe. The isolation does the opposite for your recovery. It’s just you and that voice repeating those thoughts. Repeating messages you’ve picked up. Repeating things that were said to you. 





The voice is loud when you’ve isolated. 


The urges become stronger and symptoms are inevitable. 


We all need people. That’s what makes us human. 


Regardless of what is being said to you, what has been said to you, and the billions of dollars spent on the dieting industry ... you are enough, just as you are right now. 


And as you are reading this, shame is whispering in your ear that its true, just not about you. Shame is whispering that I’m talking about other people. 


Tell shame (and ED while you’re at it), that I am talking to YOU. You are worthy. You are deserving. You are loved. 


Just as you are in this moment. 


I am sending you love. xoxo ❤️  


Be kind. 

To yourself too
