I never believed in karma but now all of the staff who were involved with the bullying, falsifying safeguarding concerns, making me feel like the worst person in the world and actively suicidal last year are on long term sick and it does feel like karma for how they treated me.

Life update because I've been rubbish and not using this app! Taking a year out of mental health nursing because my dad is v unwell but starting a new part time job working with students with SEMH which I'm really looking forward to. But mental health-wise, I am actually stable!

Finding uni really, really hard atm 😞 I don't understand any of my modules and we have so much homework and reading to do and I can't keep up. And I'm going on placement next month but it's a 40 min drive away and I have CFS and get exhausted driving. No idea what to do!

Reflecting on 2024 and I realised it's my first full year in ED recovery and I am so grateful. Never thought I'd manage a full year and I'm determined to keep going. I'm in the best place mentally I have ever been in thanks to MBT and I really want to carry that on into 2025 🤞

Sorry I've been a bit quiet on here recently, got a lot of big changes going on (my partner is moving in this week, getting a dog next week, going on placement v soon) which are all positive but a lot to get my head around as an autistic person. So I'm still here, just overwhelmed and exhausted!

Just found out I got 82 in my last essay which is the highest mark I've ever got and have managed to get a first in all of my modules this term! Honestly have no idea how that happened but I am so, so relieved and grateful 💜

Fixation is so, so intense atm and it's really hard to manage. Feels like my chest is being ripped out and it really, really hurts. She can't see me before Christmas and feeling really abandoned and rubbish. Hate my brain 😞

I had a shower and caught sight of my body in the mirror with all my tattoos and I had a thought that I actually don't mind my body for the first time ever! Tattoos have really helped me in ED recovery.
