My steps in recovery

I have decided to write a brief post to keep the community updated on a great deal of new and positive events in my life.

Many things have changed. I have a new boyfriend, I am trying my hardest (and slowly succeeding) in healing my relationship with my parents, for the first time I am taking my therapeutical plan and diet plan seriously… And though with difficulty, I am coping. I’ve stopped smoking, one tiny step at a time increasing my caloric intake and I feel positive and hopeful about my future in a sincere way I had never yet felt.

Most importantly: I am discovering myself. My great project, the book, continues and as I write I understand more and more of who I am.

In two weeks I’m starting an illustration class about expressing emotions through drawing, I’m going to illustrate the book. I also started private music lessons to learn how to use electronic music software. And, I decided to try the admission test for “Scuola Holden”, a writing school.

All in all, I have discovered something which I didn’t truly believe possible: happiness. That feeling of hope that sooths me into thinking that all will turn out okay.

Be back soon,
