Hi Darlings,
After yesterdays tangent, and a rough evening involving me skipping a party in favor of bed time, I'm thinking I should start really thinking about the things I want to get out of treatment.
So here's my quickie list, and while I'm trying to think hard about this, treatment itself is looking really far away, so goals are difficult to think of.
1) Lose weight.
Ok, so this one wasn't too hard to think of because it's sort of a goal me with both my bulimia and treatment. I guess I should redefine this more as a 'lose weight by living and eating well' kind of thing.
I think this might actually be one of the roughest things for me to deal with. I don't handle change well, and to be losing weight, slowly (painfully slowly) is going to make me want to tear my hair out, a bald spot is the last thing I need right now.
2) Learn to be assertive without resorting to tried and true passive-agressive tendencies.
Pretty self explanatory.
3) Realize the world is not actually all about me.
(Even though it is)
4) Learn how to feel comfortable in my own rather large body.
5) Act my age.
I'm sure I could settle for a few years younger too, I'm 20 and last year I was still getting confused as a freshman in high school, I suppose all of my extra adipose has sort of an 'inca mummy' preservation effect.
6) Make a habit of doing things like chores.
This one sounds dumb, but with three dogs and a sick mom at home some one's got to pick up the slack, and it really shouldn't be such a huge deal for me to do it. However, whenever anyone asks me to do anything, even if I was planning on doing it anyway, I get irrationally angry.
7)Obviously stop cutting/purging/bingeing/restricting/disassociating
8) Survive it in general
