Hey Katie,

Thank you for some of your ideas into giving out into the world, in order to “feed” your inner self a bit more. I think I will try to follow a few of them myself, even with doing some sort of volunteering or something of the kind.
I think it is difficult at any age to go through these issues, but believe you when you say most therapies or informations are more teenager focused… I have come to believe that for these matters, there is nothing better than the privacy of a therapist who gets to know you personally with no judgments. After I took on all the professionals I previously mentioned, it took me around 4 months to actually start gaining weight and it was a very slow process. Let’s say that in the 7 months I have had with my nutritionist, I gained 6 kg, most of which came all together in the past two months, due to working out and relaxation techniques that wouldn’t allow me to go back into the black hole of “I don’t deserve the food I put in my mouth”. Mostly, forgiving myself for what I have done to myself started being the step I wanted to take, more than anything else in the world. Weight just came alongside with it.

Thank you so much for your tips and sharing them with us.

Here follows a link with a very delicious chocolate mousse sugar free, low carb, healthy recipe written by a lady from your country, who taught me how to make myself some “gifts” for everytime anxiety doesn’t take over or when I am actually able to give back into the world somehow 🙂 : http://deliciouslyella.com/the-healthiest-chocolate-mousse-vegan-gluten-free-dairy-free-sugar-free/
