Are your thoughts CONstructive or DEstructive?

 DEstructive thoughts can lead to a DEstructive mindset and a negative body image - the breeding ground for eating disorders

And how do you define an eating disorder?

 A mixture of emotions trapped inside a bodycage

"I DON'T WANT TO DIE"

 

THIS IS SERIOUS.

Eating Disorders can be potentially FATAL.

This site is designed to INSPIRE POSITIVE BODY IMAGE.

It is here for you and all those trapped in the world of disordered eating. The purpose of this site is to try and find answers to the entanglement of emotions, the battle that rages within, the meaning, the process, the tears, the pain and the struggle. The words on each page are written with love and understanding.

I invite you to take some time to read these words, as they are all about the reality of feelings and thoughts, and the fight to free your mind and live with peace in your heart.

My aim is to try and help you see just what it is that you are doing to your precious self. I want to let you know that you are not alone in your world of mental and physical unrest. And to let you know that you are special. No-one deserves to go through the pain and suffering an eating disorder causes.

Aren't you frightened by the implosion of feelings that overwhelm you to the point of self destruction in its most dangerous form?

Do you understand that you could DIE?

If you are honest with yourself, you will admit that there is something WRONG with the way your body feels, the way your heart beat quickens if only for a moment, that feeling in the pit of your stomach, the weak distant voice crying out for you to listen, begging you to stop destroying yourself. You can feel your body weaken, struggle to make it through each passing day, you tell yourself that there is nothing wrong but you know the TRUTH. In the back of your mind you know you could die but you choose to ignore the REALITY of what you are doing to your precious self, not only your body but your mind, your spirit, your soul.

Throughout these pages there are pictures that you may find difficult to look at, but they paint the truest picture of self destruction in its most dangerous form. By continuing to explore the pages on this site, you are accepting personal responsibility for doing so.

I welcome you with much love.
