Hi, I'm Christie and I have ED

No, that doesn't stand for erectile dysfunction, it stands for eating disorder. Why? You may ask am I blogging about such a thing? Two reasons. First, I hope that as I strive for recovery, I may be able to help others recover. Second, I want to be happy. I want to be rid of my eating disorder. I'm tired of being tired. I'm tired of the way it runs my life and my thoughts. I want out of this bad relationship with myself. I can't do this on my own, I am working with my support team and I hope that I am increasing my team as I write this and thereby increasing my chances of success. I plan to post about how I ended with this crazy thing in the future. For those of you who know me, I hope you don't think less of me for blogging about this. I hope you will help me along the way. Like many of you always have. For those of you who don't know me, thanks for reading and I hope we can help each other. In therapy, we have to describe how we are feeling in one word, and it can't be a "weather word" such as good, ok, or bad. It has to be a word that is not used in describing the weather. My word for today: HOPEFUL.
