Clinic

Today, in a few hours, I'll be transferred to the clinic.

I visited it yesterday and I loved it. A friend has to bring me my stuff from my student appartement.

Changes are really hard for me. But it's better than this hospital. I hate hospitals. I hate the doctors and nurses here.

In a few hours, the first 48h I'll have no contact with the exterior (phone, visits, etc...) the first weekend no permission to leave for half a day or a day. Next weekend I'll be able to leave for half a day or a day.

Permissions are only for the weekends.

Phones are allowed between 2:30pm and 6pm except Thursday (1:30pm to 6pm).

It was either the clinic or the hospital anyway as I have no choice. Can't return home or anything.

Im scared, but im exited to leave this horrible hospital.

I asked if I could go with my friend to bring my stud but the hospital refused. I can't leave. But it's just better if it's me I know my stuff. I hate people going through my stuff. I hate that.

But I have no choices, so we'll FT and I'll guide her..

Healing is so scary. Visits are only from 4:30pm to 6pm weekdays and 2:30pm to 6pm weekends.

It's hard because I'll be alone. I know no one. I'm extremely shy and not comfortable for society.

I'm used to that one really close friend. She's my emergency contact and I'm her's too.

I hate new things l.

But I'll be okay, it's for my mental health so I can be okay..

Ill be okay..

Well I guess.. maybe one day...

Making good progess!!

You guys, I've been in eating disorder recovery for a month now, and I've been doing amazing! I've been eating regular, substantial meals, haven't weighed myself, attended support groups and appointments, (virtually since I'm recovering from a car accident injury) and working on my Tumblr blog for ED survivors. I feel really proud of myself and just wanted to share this. Just a few months ago I was completely starving myself and I was miserable. Now I'm learning to love myself day by day, and the positivity is bleeding out into every other aspect of my life. I no longer identify with having an eating disorder, I consider myself as recovered. Recovery is an action, a choice we make each day. I noticed I'm also healed from and being healed from all these other diagnoses that were negatively impacting my life, too. PTSD no longer has any hold on me, and neither does depression.
