: Hi

: I've been on and off with RR for a
: couple of years, never getting
: past step three. I'm back, and
: hoping to start fresh. I felt like
: I ought to post here first rather
: than hop into step one with a
: bunch of back story. The short of
: the backstory is that an eating
: disorder makes step two quite
: triggering for me, so I got
: spooked each time I had to write
: down what I ate (or skip that
: altogether, which was also scary
: for me). Fear of gaining weight
: has also spooked me away from the
: steps that I know logically my
: body needs so badly.

: I've been feeling terribly depressed,
: have unbelievably low self-esteem,
: am exhausted (even with 8 hours of
: sleep), have terrible mood swings
: and basically cannot get out of my
: own way. I know it's the sugar. I
: have to try again to work these
: steps and feel better.

: Anyway, just wanted to check in. I
: will try to get in with Step One
: again and just do that for now.
: Thanks for listening !

Hi Jennifer,

I am glad you are back

Just step one is good. All those fear and complex feelings will
pass if you simply just start with step one. Post as you go.
When you are steady of step one, let me know and we can work on some
ideas for dealing with the journal.

it is all good.
