Feeling like ME again
Just wanted to share my fantastic uplifting good news with all my fellow Icebergers.......just had two whole incredible days of freedom and I can honestly say I radiated happiness from the very core of my body! Now that Iv tasted pure freedom I never want to go back.....FULL RECOVERY IS GONNA HAPPEN FOR ME!!!! This is all worth it!!! :) Spent the past few days with my sensational friends and laughed so hard my stomach and cheekbones still hurt. I got dolled up in my wellies and every colourful item of clothing I possess, snuck into Electric Picnic and danced like my life depended on it, tasted food Id previously been afraid of, talked to strangers and felt so comfortable in my own skin every cell in my body oozed joy, felt my heart vibrate in my ears to the music surrounding me, drank a pint of beer for the 1st time in 16 months, listenned to my body's voice and chilled out on a pile of cushions when I needed a rest, felt mischievious and ALIVE ALIVE ALIVE ALIVE every one of my senses were crying out in utter bliss to actually be TASTING AND SMELLING AND HEARING AND FEELING!!! I abandonned ED in the middle of a field along with his ugly friends guilt and fear and anxiety and numbness and routine and I froliced in the open air with people I love and people I have never met before and I felt so alive I could have cried! I was spontaneous and playful and wild and carefree and energetic and in total control of my own thoughts and emotions.....I felt like a 22 year old again! I belong out in that world.....I belong in my own skin....I belong right here right now!! AHHHHH this feels so so good, Its like I've been reaquainted with an old dear friend that I had forgotten about....and what is so amazing is that that friend is MEEEEEE!!! Im so grateful to have this realisation now, I am open and willing to change so that this joy becomes a permanent fixture of my life, every day, radiating from within ME!! I send joy ahead of me, I carry joy with me, therefore I am always greeted with Joy!! Freedom is for me....Freedom is for all of us....I pray that everyone of us has a freedom day today xxx

It decides to sneak back in again it was all my imagination i didnt actutally feel good. But from reading your post i know you felt it, you had a free day, i didnt judge you and think she's imagining it so it is real for you and it is real for me. Just have to remind myself of this when the challenging times come, ive felt it before so why cant i have it again! Same for you its good to have something like to look over when condtion is at you!!
