if it could b real
i would be happy
i would be be free from eating disorders
i would be free from mass worry about things which i do know i shouldn't be worrying about
i might finally be content with myself
i would have stoped SIing
and i would be in uni where im coping well and gettin on wit my studies.

It's scary how things change in a few short months...
Although in five years time, i will still be 26
i will have done some more counselling training, possibly to diploma level
i will have spent at another least a year travelling
i will have stopped the burning
i will be eating normally, or at least more normally.

If I bore you, that is that. If I am clumsy, that may indicate partly the difficulty of my subject, and the seriousness with which I am trying to take what hold I can of it; more certainly, it will indicate my youth, my lack of mastery of my so-called art or craft, my lack perhaps of talent…
A piece of the body torn out by the roots might be more to the point.

I daydream about my life in 5 years. I would like to be fit and healthy and settled down with a long-term partner and first child. I would like to have finished studying English and Psychology by then and doing a Latin evening class. I would like to have mastered cooking and be a successful author. If I have not stopped SI by then, then at least have a partner who understands and helps me through it, though by then I would like to have stopped.

my life in 5 years as I want it to be:
- moved out of my parents' house
- SI free or at least very much reduced
- living for me, not for my mother
- at least 1 good IRL friend
- safe, healed, uninfected lip rings.

I glimpse and stare and long at them and wonder who they’re for
A fairy came to glitter the concrete slabs today;
Perhaps tomorrow she’ll return to spirit me away

there are always little changes i think...
yet some things stay the same.
-i will be 26...almost 27
-i want to have seen more of the world; Russia, Bhutan, Peru, Estonia, Tibet, Nepal, Italy, more of France, Denmark, Sweden, Argentina, Chile...I may not have got to them all, but I want to be well on the way.
-i want to be in a stable, secure, loving relationship
-i want to keep the friends i have, become closer to them and maybe even make some more
-i want to do some voluntary work, even a few hours a week at the Oxfam Shop, or doing paperwork for the WSPA.
-i would like to be thinking about having children
i may not always be happy - i know that the depression/anxiety/ ED will always be lurking, waiting. but i hope that i will be happy enough and fulfilled enough and cared about enough that they will plague me less and les.

must not add here - my wishes at present would probably be negativ enough to be censored, so I'll abstain and keep them to myself ... in my head ... where there is the alpha and the omega.

In Which Something Oooh Occurred
And it felt like a winter machine that you go through and then you catch your breath and winter starts again, and everyone else was springbound. And when I chose to live, there was no joy, it's just a line I crossed. I wasn't worth the pain my death would cost, so I was not lost or found....But when you live in a world, well, it gets in to who you th ought you'd be. And now I laugh at how the world changed me. I think life chose me after all.

I feel really, really guilty in admitting this..
But I want to be homed in with school work so I have something to do.
I want a really, really good coping method.. All I can think of for that is SI.
I want to be single - I don't want any socializing.
