Day 4 – 30 Day Recovery Challenge II

Day 4 – What motivates you to recover?

My tumblr — I am glad that my blog helps other people (and knowing that helps me) but I really originally made it for myself, to be honest, because I needed that positivity and encouragement and those reminders. It still helps me, and it is a place that I can use as an outlet to vent or ask for help.

My followers — I truly mean this. You guys motivate and inspire me so much. Just knowing that you exist is enough to keep me going some days when things get rough. I truly appreciate your ongoing support, and I want you to know that I love you and I read your notes and comments and y'all are amazing. Thank you so, so much.

My friends, particularly my bestie Caitlin — I won't go into detail cause I don't want to embarass her or anything but her support means the world to me, and her struggles inspire me to get better because I want to inspire her to get better.

The idea of "full recovery" — I want to be free. I want to put this behind me. I want to live as myself, not as my sick self. These things I struggle with have shaped who I am as a person, but I am so much more than that, and I am ready to show that to the world (and to myself).

The idea of inspiring others with my story

(I feel inspired just writing all that)
