i wish i didnt have to eat.
i wish i could be thin and beautiful.
i wish jimmy hadnt died.
i wish grandpa hadnt died.
heck, i wish a whole lot of people hadnt died.
i wish i could be a better person
i wish i could let myself get close to people again
i wish i could show who i really am, how i really feel
so i SI.. shh. it's socially unacceptable that i express pain.

So that is it.
I'm shutting my doors & putting my walls back up.
I'm closing my curtains & removing the welcome mat.
I'm blocking everything out again, because it's so much easier than feeling something

To be thin
In my field of paper flowers, and candy-clouds of lulabies, I lie inside myself for hours...and watch my purple sky fly over me....

I wish i could make this all go away and not hurt you
I wish i could take away the pain i caused
I wish i wasnt scared, and quiet but the old me
I wish i was happy
I wish there was another way

I wish I did not feel like everything is about to blow up? It isn't - just feels that way.

Oy!! All of you!

If you wish to know what someone's thinking, why can't you ask them?

If you wish to be beautiful and thin, stop wishing. Go to a dietician. Eat fruit & vegetables. & meat for iron. Stop with the alcohol. Do some exercise everyday. Anorexic is unhealthy. It's sick. You want to be beautiful, do it right, and you'll FEEL like the beautiful you are already inside.

You wish you didn't feel a certain way, try to change it - do something else, question WHY you are feeling that way.

If you wish to take away pain you caused, do something nice for the person you hurt. Or do something nice for someone else. Volunteer somewhere, wash your mum's dishes, help an old lady across the road.

If you wish to have a proper ED and starve properly, change your mind. You don't wish that. You're not coping & you need help, you don't need anorexia. It makes you feel like crap. Try working through your feelings.

Wishing yesterday hadn't happened won't change it. Work hard at making tomorrow different.

Modding this thread is so hard, because I can see all the pain you're all in and I'm frustrated that I can't help.

Can I be a bitch and encourage you all to try not posting things in here that don't really mean anything to anyone but you, and start a place, or make a new post on main or here or workshop and expand a little... let people help you.

Wishing something is not going to make it happen. You have to.

I wish I could look through coping & not feel bad about all these people that I've seen around for so many years in so much pain & not be able to do anything about it.

I try. I reply, & I pm when I can. But I wish this board at least encouraged some kind of growth, some kind of ability to help yourself when there isn't anyone around to do it for you.

I wish that this month never happened and it was just a bad dream.

I wish that I could actually feel happy without trying to make myself feel happy.

I wish this pain would just go away

So what can you do to make your nexct month better for yourself?

Are you getting any help for dealing with your pain?

How can you change your lifestyle a little (incorporate social activities, join groups, get rid of stressful things) so that you may increase your ability to start feeling happy?

O - I wish I could take your pain away and make things better, I understand more than you all ever realise, or admit.

I wish I was dffernt, louder more confident but its not me.

I wish you would admit and talk to me about what I do even though the thought of it scares me totally.

I wish i was stronger
