Some One Who Never Listened Posted: 06-04-04 07:04am
Hey there!
I used to write on this forum but I
stopped a couple of months ago because I
had tricked everyone I knew into believing
that I no longer had an eating disorder.
Well look who comes crawling back. Me.
I not only still have an eating disorder
but I now have osterposis( I can't spell
it properly). I am only 17 and I have
the bones of a 60 year old, I can no
longer play sports I can't drink I can't
smoke I can't do alot of things anymore
because if I hurt my hips the doctor said
I would be dead in 12 months. Now, that
isn't a life that I should be having
right? But I didn't listen to anyone
when they tried to help me and I am sorry
for not listening but I think I would have
never understood and now I do.
I am writing today because I want to tell
people that although you think your ed is
ok and under control, like I did and still
do it isn't because without you knowing,
its hurting you inside as well as out.
I had a ticket to britany spears but I
couldn't go and that was something I was
really looking forward to.So just think
about what you are doing and you know what
even if you don't care which I know some
of you won't( I didn't) just think of me
and that how I could have changed so much
of what my life was going to turn out like
and now can't. But you can. Just think
of that and remember when you are told you
have something which you have gotten as a
result of this eating disorder( which will
happen) rememeber that I told you it was
going to happen and only if you had of
listened and rememeber how you felt when
you were told and that you wondered how
will I make others understand and help
them not do what I have done and then
remember, you can't.
No one will listen to you because they
need to suffer to understand themselves
and by then it is too late and thats how
eating disorders will go on for ever
because we don't care untill it is too
late to care. For those who do listen
and who do take control and learn from
other people's experience, I just want to
say that you are the srtong ones and you
are the people that we can look up to.
You help us to get on and live with what
we have done because just maybe we have
not suffered for nothing if we can help
you to not suffer at all. So thank you
to those who listen and who have decided
that there life is more important than
there death.
I am sorry if I sound mean or uncaring but
its just that I know that no one will
listen and now I know how others who tried
to help me feel. I now have something
which could kill me as well as my eating
disorder and yet it doesn't seem to
matter. What I am going through now
doesn't mean anything to me if I can't
help others learn from it and not make the
same mistakes. So I am really not trying
to sound whatever way I sound its just I
want you all to live because if I do die
from this which could happen very easly at
least I would know that others wont.
Well thats me finished annoying you all
for now.
Don't cry because its over smile because
it happened.

Hey there thanks for replying em to answer
your question no I am not trying to
recover I am not sure if I really want to
because although I have begun to go to
therapy I don't like it, I am not
comfortable with talking to people because
I pay them to listen to me its just not
something I like to much. If I want to
get better I know how and if I don't well
I know how to do that to. I am glad you
think that was a good post because I
really want to let people like me know
that everyone can die and I know many
people think that it will never happen but
you know what it can and thats the thing I
want people to realise no one is
inevincable.
Wow you are 33 weeks how is it going I
rememeber talking to you a few months ago
and you were trying to recover for only a
few weeks but now it must be so much
longer than that. How is everything going
you are very brave and strong to take
control to help you and your baby. Write
back again if you want
luv jenny
