I Finally Feel Free Well, I am overcoming bulimia too, and I thought that I only felt free when I was abusing diet pills, laxatives, binging, and purging. But the truth is, I finally feel free for the first time in my life, now that I am getting through the bulimia. It took the understanding and kind heartedness of a man that was brought into my life through my most recent job. He was the owner of the company, and for some reason, I felt that I could trust him with everything. I had just left an abusive relationship when I got the job. I was dealing with being stalked and harassed by my ex. He helped me with that. Before Christmas, I had an emotional breakdown. I was sobbing uncontrollable and he listened to me. He never judged me. He just listened. After Christmas, my bulimia got much worse. A few months later, when I was literally on the floor, unable to get up, because I had taken so much stuff to lose weight, I decided that I needed to talk to him about it. I trusted him. He saved my life. He cared, he listened, he never passed judgment, and here I am working through something I thought I would never have the desire to work through. I never thought I would want to live a life without bulimia. It was such a part of me. It was everything I knew. My life is changing SO much for the better since I made the decision to change, and I would tell anyone who is in my shoes, that the first few weeks will definitely be unbearable at times, but the outcome is SO worth it. That man saved my life! |
