Are you micro-managing your eating disorder recovery so stringently you’re still stuck in a fruitless middle ground where the life you want remains out of reach?
Hmm. Ask yourself again – ‘how well is this rule slavery really working out for me’?
Sarah and Debbie tackle the topic of how we fall into creating rules for our intended recovery journey, and how sustainable freedom from our eating disorder can only be achieved by letting go of regimes and accepting that, particularly in a state of brain starvation, we’re ill equipped to even know what’s right for us and our future self.
As Sarah and Debbie reflect, rules of some nature can be helpful when seen with flexibility and agility, but can equally become so counterintuitive and prevent the desired outcome.
Recovery is so unique, but all recovery needs one rule alone – I will remain committed and an active participant in achieving full health.
