When I actually looked my behaviors in the eye, I could change them.

It may have been a poor game of communication then, but I am so glad you are finding your voice again! :) Progression Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731921488035095856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-50372963395057715912013-05-05T14:39:18.296-07:002013-05-05T14:39:18.296-07:00I really like the language analogy.
My therapist ...I really like the language analogy.<br /><br />My therapist used to tell me the way I talked about my ED was like it was my personal little pet or secret best friend. I spoke through it and channeled all my difficult emotions - sadness, loneliness, anxiety, even aggression (who knew sweet, passive me actually has a bit of a temper?!) I hid my emotions and behaviors yet desperately wanted people to notice I was suffering at the same time - then when when some of them actually did, I was humiliated and even offended. A very crazy, ineffective game in poor communication. I'm learning to speak my own voice more authentically with myself and others but it is tough - definitely a long process! Self compassion is a must, definitely. :)<br />Lindsaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-90483389603449821432013-05-05T11:31:14.845-07:002013-05-05T11:31:14.845-07:00I am excited for you to start learning new things,...I am excited for you to start learning new things, too!

Bad day, restrict... Feel crappy, go exercise... <br />But its now that i want to speak other languages (im still talking in metaphors here!) i realise how isolated ONLY hearing that one anorexic voice made me.<br /><br />Im excited to start learning new things, and of course... making progress :)<br /><br />and yup, i took spanish too. but i believe im one up on you, cos i know that "una cerveza" is a beer. hahahaha xxClemmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079827274904770477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-54050567637786932602013-05-05T09:16:43.332-07:002013-05-05T09:16:43.332-07:00Aw that is such a perfect song to start your Sunda...Aw that is such a perfect song to start your Sunday with! There's a really good chance I would have been a balling mess too haha.

I am chosen and holy, and I'm dearly loved, I am new." <br />My post for the day was going to surround this song, but yours fits it even better! I couldn't think of anything better to say than what you said. <br />Just remember that you are new, you're being remade, you are chosen and holy, and dearly loved; you are new. I'm so proud of you, Kelsi! <br />Love you Rock Star! <3 xoxoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06213551669596215905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-83163509620362149242013-05-05T09:03:10.668-07:002013-05-05T09:03:10.668-07:00Thank you very much :) I hope you are doing great,...Thank you very much :) I hope you are doing great, too! xoxoProgression Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731921488035095856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-73910139446215738652013-05-05T08:59:55.503-07:002013-05-05T08:59:55.503-07:00You said very well.
