| Url: | http://surfacingaftersilence.wordpress.com/ |
| Language: | English |
| Topics: | anorexia, psychiatry, recovery |
| Description: | Warning: this is not your typical eating disorder blog. I will not give you details about what it's like to be sick or how I got sick or how sick I was. I won't debate whether or not I am ready to give up the illness (although that is a crucial stage of recovery) because I HAVE give it up. This is about what it's like on the other side, once you've chosen life. A real life, full of the pain and sorrow we tried to avoid by having an eating disorder and also the joy and happiness we can finally feel once we give it up. |

Survey Monkey!!!
I am submitting a proposal for a paper for a conference. (Association of Popular/American Culture) My topic is about the eating disorder community on Facebook. There has been research done about media, magazines, advertising, and pro-ana sites. I think it’s time we look at how healthy Facebook is, whether it encourages recovery or not or whether it encourages an individual to stay stuck in his or her illness. There are two parts to the survey, only because I only have a basic account and can’t have more than 10 questions on any one survey. I am asking you to please take a few minutes and answer 20 questions, 19 of which are simple multiple choice que

thin tastes like . . .
(photo found here) Just my two cents on the whole Kate Moss bit. Some people have crucified her since she’s a role model (cough cough) and said, “Nothing tastes and good as thin feels,” with the fear that this comment, from her, will spur more eating disorders.

Justifiable Illness
Disease So every so often I get off my ranting high horse and ignore the issues at hand and just give you a plain old update of how I’m doing in this thing called life. This post may be a combination of all three, although the ranting will be considerably tamed down.

I did delete two comments that ignored the content of the post entirely and resorted to name calling (me) and attacking (me). I don’t mind if you all disagree with me, and I e
