Feel the fear and do it anyway 👏

Since it’s the end of ED Awareness week, I thought I’d talk a little bit about fear during recovery. I had so so many fears at the beginning of ed recovery, all of which I knew were not logical, but, nevertheless, I was terrified to face. People often ask me how to get over a fear…the only way is through. I had to repeatedly do the things I was afraid of, so that I could see that nothing bad happened. Over time, those fears held less power over me, and, eventually they weren’t fears anymore. 

If you are struggling to face fears, know that that fear is valid, but you are strong enough to overcome it.
