Life after an eating disorder
It’s always been about control. The complexities of triggers, motives, and behaviors are not set aside or ignored when it is said that an eating disorder is about control. You want control over how you are perceived, treated, regarded, spoken of. We know the overwhelming end results of fitting the ideal forced down our throats and inflected on our bodies. We know the devastation we are met with when we accept ourselves at our current or our best — we can be the healthiest we can physically manage and it is treated as lessor or a moral failing. Our bodies are not our own and that is the tragic lie we are indoctrinated and poisoned with.

They could be artistic, academic, physical, or simply unwinding.

Grief
My husband is dead. I say that as much for myself as I say it for you, dear reader. I still have to remind myself. It’s been very nearly a month. Both the longest and shortest month of my life. Time no longer seems linear—I just float around inside the days and bump from one moment to the next.

Negativity Killing My Vibe
Everyone says that America has bad reputation for new immigrants. My husband because of his skin tone he fears he will be beaten and killed by corrupted police, and government officials in power. Yet he is willing to put his fears aside to make sure we can both have a good life in America. His fears are common though racism is everywhere.
