Subject: Re: summer stress Author: Lara [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:51:40 07/07/06 Fri In reply to: Chocolate 's message, "Re: summer stress" on 14:01:09 07/05/06 Wed I send hugs to everyone. I'm doing well... enough. Still happier than I've been in years, leaving home was the best decision I've ever made for myself. Thanks for the support you ladies gave me about a year ago when I was struggling to make the decision. I'm coping with the ups and downs of summer. But all the tiny bodies around me make it so hard, leading to obsessive thinking. It's hard... knowing I was once so sick, so tiny, so on my deathbed with an IV and food tube. At times I catch myself wanting to be in my old skeletal body (having boobs is hard!!!). I want to show my boyfriend pictures od how I was; I'm not sure why, maybe to share where I was. he knows, but without pictures he really doesn't. Sometimes I wish I could be so small again, but I believe this time I want it more to scare me. What else? My lil sis has lost a lot of weight back home. I am dealing with twingess of jealously. I'm happy I'm not there to see it. She was always the round one and I was the stick. I worry about her, but also that our relationship is going to be different when I go home. For those of you that forgot, I moved to Oxford for my third year (studying psychology and writing a novel). Term finished about two weeks ago now and I moved from there to Nice, France with my boyfriend (who I met 6 months ago now). In two months I'll be back in NY for one more year of uni. So basically, I'm stressed too. Change is hard, especially when I feel like I've found something good for once. I wish you all the best... Xx >Hi, > >summer has always been the worst time for me.
