The last amaxing book I read was 'The Handmaid's Tale' by Margaret Atwood.<br /><br />I've recently been reading lots of books on depression, which other people find morbid but I love- I feel better knowing I'm not alone or others have been so much worse than myself. Reading books about happy people makes me feel isolated and very grumpy and don't 'grip' me at all!<br /><br />xxxxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151849011637071775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268005744978949300.post-14198724956572441512013-06-09T05:59:32.061-07:002013-06-09T05:59:32.061-07:00Me too - I used to eat books.

I find that's a great distraction, or embroidery, anything where you can completely focus on the task in hand rather than anorexia. Anorexia doesn't deserve your attention! <br />XXXAngharad https://www.blogger.com/profile/03276065419684298280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268005744978949300.post-81294912569720849962013-06-09T02:17:52.791-07:002013-06-09T02:17:52.791-07:00oh thank you so much it means an awful lot to hear...oh thank you so much it means an awful lot to hear that!<br /><br />Yup and it is so much more self destructive than turning on the telly!!

My mother is a soap-opera-holic...and I think to myself how sad an existence it must be to have one's life revolved around fictional television programmes. Then I think to myself how hypocritical of me, because I my life revolves around anorexia. Like you say, tempted, driven, super-humanly energised, finding false promises and beckoned in. The only difference is, my mother has her television to turn to, whereas when our eating disordered meringue crumbles, who is left to pick up the pieces? <br /><br />Amazing blog lovely! xxx Angharad https://www.blogger.com/profile/03276065419684298280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268005744978949300.post-91203377689002663222013-06-04T02:02:18.556-07:002013-06-04T02:02:18.556-07:00Oh my gosh Bella I may be in recovery but im gonna...Oh my gosh Bella I may be in recovery but im gonna be on that recipe like a beast hahah! many thanks! <br /><br />Thanks for your love launna xxxxxxxxxxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151849011637071775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268005744978949300.post-49302775100851759192013-06-03T19:23:33.754-07:002013-06-03T19:23:33.754-07:00Katie everything you write is so honest...
