Client Quote # 71: jumping to conclusion
We have bad days for all types of reasons.
ED loves bad days, because it gets to scream and shout things like “I ate too much” or “I hate my body” all the more 📣
A bad day can put us on the verge of relapse or regression with ED recovery. We may spiral back into ED symptoms, frustrated with the back and forth of it all.
But…we are allowed to have bad days, and it doesn’t mean it leads to an eternal bad life 🙅🏻You can have bad weeks, bad months, or bad years and yet….possibilities remain. 🌅 Possibilities of better days, better weeks, better months, and better years are there right in front of us every moment. It takes one small gesture, one you might feel even too easy to do, for things to turn around.
Maybe a deep, compassionate breath 🧘🏻♀️
Maybe a memory recounting a proud moment of your life 💭
Maybe a warm hug from a loved one. Maybe a good cry.
To remind you that you are brave, you are loved, and your possibilities are endless. Whatever happens, you are going to be okay 🫶🏼
