Farewell for now

So i'm going away for a few months. I bet you all think i'm going somewhere really exciting, or going on holiday or something. But infact, i'm not. I'm going into hospital for a few months.
I have Anorexia Nervosa, and i'm being admitted into an Eating Disorder inpatient unit to try and recover as my weight is quite low. Personally, i think i'm fine, but the professionals disagree. I was a bit hesitant as to whether or not to post this post, but i always said i'd be honest with my readers, and maybe it's about time i started being more honest with myself too.

Where it all started. I've suffered from an eating disorder whether it be more Anorexia or Bulimia since i was of the age of 7. I used to make myself throw up when i was in Primary School, and be sick all the time and i never thought anything of making myself throw up but still kept it secret and my parents never thought anything of me being sick, Then when i started Secondary School, i started getting bullied really severely and that just totally sent it out of control. I was nearly admitted to an inpatient unit at the age of 16, but i then started gaining weight as i was binging and purging so they didn't admit me, despite the fact i was still struggling with an eating disorder, but my weight had stabilized.

As for now, my weight has been on a downward spiral for a while, and the Anorexic thoughts have kind of taken over my life. It's totally consumed me and they don't really know how to treat me as an outpatient anymore as i just just can't really seem to get any better, so that's why i'm being admitted as an inpatient. I've never really been in recovery, i've continued to struggle since i was 7, so they think that i'll never fully recover, but hopefully i can learn to live with it and lead a normal life while putting the thoughts to the back of my head.

To try and keep my blog going i've asked a variety of people to guest post, and i've done lots of OOTD posts which i've scheduled to post while i'm in hospital. As for whether i'll be allowed to have my computer to check up on my blog i don't know, but fingers crossed i'll be able to do a blog post while i'm in there. I'd like to do a post about what it's like in an eating disorder unit, so fingers crossed, they'll let me take photos too.

But yeah, so that's why i'm going away, so farewell for now.

You're brave for writing this post and opening up a little, it must be difficult for you. Bullies are cruel can don't realise how much they can affect someone. Those thoughts can still effect you I find and aren't easy to shake off. You're a better person though so just focus on yourself on your recovery.

Aw honey, I hope you'll be okay. My old best friend had anorexia and was admitted into a hospital, it was the best thing that could ever happen to her. Before she didn't realise she was poorly, but she walked out a completely different woman. I wish you all the best with your recovery, you're an incredibly pretty and bright girl :)
