This is a timely and powerful metaphor that I can use for my ED, as well as the relentless self castigation that I engage in on a daily basis. While it may not be simple or EASY to high-jack the backseat companion, it is possible to remove them from the driver's seat and start exercising the atrophied muscle of "direction" in life. While their route rarely takes us to a good place, the scenery is repetitive after while. It's time for a new landscape.Heatherhttp://somewhereinbetweenblog.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-49924809540388847032011-09-11T14:20:53.700-04:002011-09-11T14:20:53.700-04:00Wouldn't it be nice to open up the car door an...Wouldn't it be nice to open up the car door and watch him fall headfirst out, tumbling over and over, in the rear view mirror?

In a way you hate to admit, it's comforting. And then, suddenly, you have to try and make them go away. You decide to hell with that and fight recovery, even though a tiny part of you kinda wants to not hate yourself, and be warm, and have normal coloured skin, and be able to actually eat. But then one day, you realize 'Damn, this sucks. I'm tired of this.' And start fighting against your voice. <br />I don't think you went too far into it. I analyze everything too. My English teacher says you can't over analyze something.<br />I just want you to know, I really look up to you. You've had a really severe blow of eating disorders and OCD, but you don't let it stop you. You're determined to get your life back, even though recovery really sucks sometimes. Keep it up, I know you'll get there one day. :)Jessienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-77141349624018124072011-09-11T01:11:46.727-04:002011-09-11T01:11:46.727-04:00Oh, so true!!!
