Dear Gillian,
Just finally getting to webinar 5.
I just wrote this in my journal:
I have let go of my identity as a person with an eating disorder, as a person who eats for emotional comfort, as a person who uses food to numb out.
“It isn’t where you come from. It’s where you’re going that counts.” Ella Fitzgerald
I’m going to a place where I feel my emotions cleanly, I allow emotions to come and process through me. And this is so powerful. Every time I do this I’m blown away by the fact that they always move and shift and that I’m always OK, not in need of anything to buffer them away.
