so, after 3 sessions and much self reflection, i've found the problem that's been driving my issues with self image and food. those who know me know i put a lot of pressure on myself. i didn't realize it, but if i am a "-holic" of any sort, i'm a workaholic

hey...this is very random, but i randomly read your LJ entry because you had just commented on Ilana's (i'm Lindsay, Ilana and Hannah L's friend) I dont know if you really know me haha..but I've started going to the same church that you attend and I do RSE...ANYWAYS....
I really admire your strength. I went through an eating disorder 2 years ago and I know how difficult it is in any situation like that..I believe I lost about 20 pounds in the course of about 2 months...I was nearly hospitalized..it was not a pretty picture to say the least haha
BUT- I came out a stronger person. I learned a lot about myself and I have sought help and gotten through it. I did develop some problems after the initial eating disorder...but I've gotten the help I need and I'm fine.
I know how tough it was...and I know the whole stress thing too..trust me haha...
But random as this is considering you don't know me, I wanted to just comment and say that I really respect your honesty and the fact that you will openly discuss your "flaws."
But without "flaws" what makes us great?
eh?
anyways, I'm glad to hear you're feeling a lot better :)

no, i don't know you, but it doesn't matter. in fact, i'm glad that i didn't yet know you becasue now i can meet and get to know you! thanks for putting yourself out there, i know that when people try to deal with things like these on their own, they only get in deeper and deeper. i know that God is pulling me through this, and that i will come out of it glad for the lessons learned, friendships strengthened, and flaws corrected. i just hope that whenever someone has something they need to talk about, that they are upfront and honest with it.
