    Hey Notagain,
    Are you doing okay? Do you want to talk about anything?

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Hey notagain

    Just wanted to drop by and say I hope you are okay. Remember a relapse doesn't mean the end of recovery. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and keep fighting lovely girl <3
    The sun will rise and we will try again

    Thank you all for kind words and support, I really do appreciate it.

    I experienced a really big trigger on Sunday and Monday so wrote things and looking back I think it might have been triggering for other people. I wanted to keep the community safe so I just got rid of it all.

    Hey @Notagainvitelina, I hope you're feeling a bit better today, do you want to talk a bit more about what happened on Sunday and Monday? If you're a little unsure about what you can post and if you feel anything might be triggering, you're more than welcome to send a PM to The Mix account with your post and we can look over anything to see if it's safe for the community :)

    All the best,

    Aife
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    I feel frustrated and I feel upset.

    I don't don't even know what else to say.

    Starting tomorrow I'm going back to before.

    I don't want to talk to anyone and I want to be left alone.

    In this state I feel like I can throw all the food in the house away. I want to. I'm so upset and all I want to do is scream and cry.I feel like I've messed it all up. I should have lost more.

    @Salix alba Sorry your not feeling great at the moment. Its hard when you feel like this. Crying isn't a sign of weakness its natural and if you feel like you need to scream to help you feel a little bit better that is perfectly acceptable. How your feeling and the way you want to react is normal and understandable.
    Look after yourself
