Constantly over the last year, while I've been in Darwin and Cairns - I'll be sitting, thinking to myself "this is EXACTLY where I want to be"
There's an ad for Corona beers over here and they'll have a couple sitting on a beach on a warm afternoon and the sign says "From where you'd rather be" - everytime I see it, I get a reminder of what the fuck I'm throwing away everytime I leave a beautiful place. That ad didn't matter to me one bit while I was there, because there was no where on earth I'd rather be than in that exact spot.
I came back to help my mumma out - but things seem to be slipping back into what they were like last year at this time. So much fighting and anger goes on now that I don't know whether I should pack up again and just head back to Darwin and leave my mum here to figure out her life.
I can't sit here while she tries to sort herself out - because she's getting nowhere slow.
I don't know what to do.
I wake up not knowing what the fuck I'm doing when I'm away - but that disappears within the hour. Fuck. I wake up here feeling like I'm wasting my fucking life.
I don't think my blog is catering for the ED side of things anymore. I'm lost, and I need to figure myself out. I need to lose weight - which probably isn't possible with this fucking foetus growing inside of me.. but I can try.
For me, the point of an ED community isn't to swap stats and bingeing tips... it's to hear that you aren't crazy in thinking the way that you do. And I think the ED mindset extends far beyond eating. (In other words, your blog = very interesting. Sorry about the rantiness.)
ReplyDeleteIf I were you, I'd be on the next plane back to Darwin, but that's probably not a smart decision. I hope you feel more... grounded... soon :(
