From an early age I've had many setbacks and suffered a lot of pain in my life; bullying, bad relationships, eating disorders, depression... I'm still not sure if I even want to 'recover' from anything yet but this summer I have decided to at least challenge some of my thinking and maybe even change some of my ways.
I've got a good support system in place with lovely friends who I hope can help me on my journey. I've met a lot of people in therapy (from nearly 4 years) and only now do I feel so comfortable and free to express myself that I feel OK about taking a bit more control in my life ~Thanks Jackie~ and as I've got a bit more free time on my hands this is going to be something positive I want to explore.
I hope that some of the things I will be writing about will prove useful to you and maybe you will be able to help yourself in the process. This is a new thing for me and I'm sure I'll make plenty of mistakes on the way but I'm beginning to learn that this is OK and NORMAL and I don't need to punish myself- I'm doing the best I can right now & that's good enough, in fact its GREAT!!
My main goal this summer is to learn to look after myself and I wish you able to do this too.
Lets get cracking and make the most of the summer,
Love Ellie xx
Hear Hear! I will support you 100%, all of the way, in every way. <3 xxx
