April Mental Health Thread

Good afternoon, everyone. I hope life is going well for all you lovely people on the forum.

I’ve made a few threads sharing my struggles with anorexia and other issues in the hope it would help others who are struggling. I’m not going to talk much about my own issues as this thread is for everyone else who is struggling with their mental health and would like some support. Or if you’ve had issues in the past and are recovering, it would be great to hear your stories. Even if you don’t feel like posting it on the thread, you can message me, and I’ll post it anonymously.

For a long time, I didn’t think I’d recover from anorexia, and honestly, at times I didn’t want to as it felt safer. It wasn’t until I really wanted to recover and have a better life that I did finally start to change. I wouldn’t tell anyone that it’s been easy or that I haven’t relapsed multiple times or that I don’t wake up and hate the way I look. It’s felt impossible at times, but I’ve never given up hope because I want to live life to the fullest and not regret the years I didn’t try or didn’t want to recover.

I wake up every day and feel hope and optimism for the future in a way that I haven’t in many years.

For anyone struggling, don’t give up. If you’re losing hope or if it seems impossible, I’m not saying it’ll be easy, but start to think of the life you want to live. I’ve learned that half the challenge is you have to want to get better, and you need a dream or something more important to you than continuing to struggle.

If anyone is going through a hard time or can’t cope, my inbox is always open.

HOPE SHINES BRIGHTEST IN THE DARK.

I have struggled with a lot of things in my life and was dealt quite a few cruel curveballs. Sometimes therapy only made it worse. I'm a firm believer of self help. Your body/ your mind knows how to heal itself and move forward. Don't listen to bad advice do what you feel you need to do. Self help books and meditation all the way. I'm always open to a chat if anyone needs one xxx breathe and do the best you can xxx
