It's a really difficult position to be in, but you are spot on when you said "in the end I just have to accept that they are where they are and I am where I am." That's all there really is to. It's all about taking care of yourself when you are in this very moment. Thanks again! <3 Progression Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731921488035095856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-45905146135900832382013-04-01T16:36:57.394-07:002013-04-01T16:36:57.394-07:00This one really hit home for me.

When I left, I stayed friends with a few (though we are all much more distant both in physical proximation and emotionally) and others drifted by the way side or I lost them completely. The thing that hurt the most for me was feeling like some friends didn't actually want to see me well and couldn't be happy for me and the things going right in my life because they were still stuck in their own pain. And I wanted their approval somehow even more because they would understand how hard it is to get better and make the right choices. But in the end I just have to accept that they are where they are and I am where I am, and I hope they can be happy for themselves one day too.

It's always a tricky situation, huh? <3 Progression Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731921488035095856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-34464462578865665602013-03-27T08:31:21.384-07:002013-03-27T08:31:21.384-07:00I love what you shared here. For me, the 12 step ...I love what you shared here. For me, the 12 step program has been helping so much in this area. The program is a life long learning place, and we get to see how people change in a long run. I was so desperate at the beginning when I got close to some people, and they started to wave away from my life. We always focus on what is leaving us, but often ignore what's coming. And, it is not personal. I have heard that the only constant thing in life is a constant change. I have learned to welcome anybody who has left but come back, and that often happens especially in the program. People have their own journey, and I have learned to respect them as who they are. And love them unconditionally. Yes, I have an eating disorder, but just treating my food situation is really not changing much in my life. It is about doing life on life's term. xoxoartytechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18023746097803453938noreply@blogger.com
