I sobbed.
I’m leaving my husband- it’s been years coming but I’ve lost all support after he’s flipped the narrative. Filling out state assistance forms all week and secretly packing until I have a plan- I won’t tell our girls.
And then, I pop you on.
It’s the first thing we can control, our intake. We can feel the pain in our stomachs and that makes us feel successful - at something- so in the beginning does that count as self harm? I was in junior high when I started restricting myself. If I wanted love, i needed to be pretty/ and pretty was not fat. My mom knew- she knew all I was consuming was Diet Coke and carrots. But (later revelations with therapy) confirmed I was ‘walking on eggshells’ with a borderline personality mom- which is where my anxiety kicked in. I knew she wasn’t doing thing right, that life could be easier but she insisted her was was the only way and I had to stick with her as the oldest child in a divorce (7y). I became her best friend- and had all the information with no context.
I feel like I don’t deserve a lot of things, but food was the first. I thought if I followed all the rules, karma would circle round and dole out the life I deserved. But instead, my husband has had going on nine surgeries, has been verbally abusive and restrictive and with a toxic family- finding enough help seemed impossible. Sometimes I thought if I didn’t eat maybe I would die in my sleep and it would all be over without hurting anyone’s feelings. My weaker immune system allowed me to pick my skin off and allow MRSA in fifteen times in two years. I was sure I would die. I was so depressed and then i found his other child. All while being a single parent because he is insanely selfish. I am envious of his ability to provide himself with self care no matter the situations.
I couldn’t allow my girls needs not to be met- so mine went without.
Now that I’m moving from in issue and finding a solution, my eating issues raised their hands and said ME NEXT, and I didn’t even know they were there.
Thank god for you, Brené, and Anna Mather. You are creating my catalyst (Van der Kolk and Reaching and Teaching- Children Exposed to Trauma (sorrels) also have helped. I finally have a tribe, they are just so far apart and famous…
Thank you

I feel like there are levels of awareness and you often notice it during depression. When you are actively coming out of depression, for me anyway, I start to notice the house being dirty and how I haven’t taken care of my appearance. I notice the warmth of the sun and begin to have that gratitude again. You start to feel alive again.

Talking to children about mental health: start with feelings. Identify all the feelings, print out a chart from Pinterest and tell your children there are all of these feelings that live inside everyone- and each feeling takes turns. As them to close their eyes and check in with their bodies and see if they can find any feelings or hurt? Clearly separate things for them, if they slip and fall “are you scared or is your body hurt? Or both?” Children just need information and language- help them take a big breath (blow out birthday candles) and explained that creating helps calm the body down like magic. It’s okay to feel all of your feelings- and if you can find the words to express them, as adults we can help from there. I get large squash and let the girls hit them with baseball bats if they are frustrated. Find outlets, safe places within your home with a cozy blanket or weighted something. Give your children the tools while you’re learning them yourself! Learn more so we can do better!

Reminds me a lot of the four agreements. Very soothing- which is something, from captain adhd and anxiety with hippy borderline parents who never grew up.
