Leaving behind ED & facing my ultimate fears. I'm scared of flying & heights, so if I can face them I can face any fear ED threw at me. I thoroughly recommend this! I'm aware things aren't exactly running normally at the min, but why not look into some fundraising for next year?

One of the best things about recovery is saying sod it, I don't fancy what was on our meal plan, I can not be bothered to cook let's just have a takeaway.
Complete freedom and a normal thing to do. No guilt or shame attached.
