Freedom form the obsession
with food and body image in whatever form that may take
Working towards a journey for life one step at a time
A place where I can feel at home within myself
A space where life become more important than how I feel about my body
Time when I don't have to think of food 24:7
A space where I can dream again
A place people stop interrogating me
When I chose to move on from that place with or without support
When I can see life outside of my world
When I can have friends
To sit in a cinema and watch a film
When I get let down I don't feel it is because the world hates me
A way of life
A very steep road
What helps people find
it?
Treatment you chose and have
a say in
Someone to listen to me
Being understood
Seeing how awful life is in the dark hole and wanting to find a way out for
myself
Different programmes e.g. OA,EDA groups, psychotherapy, SWEDA
Having a dream that it gets in the way of
Belief that you can do it
What can replace it
and how could you fill the time?
A job
A course
A new hobby
Voluntary work
Friends
Being at one inside and finding an inner home and peace
How would life be without
recovery?
Living hell
Not a life a mere existence
Miserable
Familiar but stuck and sad and lonely
No head space for anything new
If you have thoughts about recovery do send them in

have been developing an information leaflet about what is recovery from
all angles!
