"I hate reading things along the lines of, 'well they didn't help me' or 'why didn't you save me?' You save yourself or you remain unsaved; You cannot place blame on anyone else in this world for your choices. No, you did not choose the eating disorder, but recovery (or lack of thereof) is a choice. Do not blame anyone for your lack of willingness to recover. (Asking for help and being shot down is a different story, but saying 'oh well I'll just continue to starve myself because you didn't help me' is just pathetic.) This is your one life. Your one and only life. You can stay sick and merely exist, coast through each day, miserable and zombie-like (which will be just like the last); merely existing - not living to eventually die, with nothing that matters to show for it. Or, you can own the fuck up, fuck what anyone else says and recover.. for you, and you only. It is the only way. "
