do any of you have names for your ED's? My Bulimia is called Mia (original, I know) I cant remember a time she didnt live in me. Most of the time she just fades into the background and no one even knows she's there, even me. I also have C who is the blackness that washes over me. Sometimes they fight inside my head and it makes me want to scream.

I also have Lily, who is the opposite of Mia. Her voice is the quietest.

I was always wondering what people meant by "mia". I feel like such a dummy for not figuring it out myself.

Mia and Lili/Lily are Bulimia and Ana is Anorexia. I have a small tattoo of a Lily to remind me that Mia and Lily are always part of me.

Dont feel like a dummy, how could you possibly know if no one ever told you :o)
deleted_user
Well I did figure out the Ana on my own. I've never heard of Lily. I just have plain old boring Ed.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
