i'm still kicking around as well
from anainsight :
I'm still here, hon - not around every day but still around, just updating more on FB now... gone through lots of hard times but life is still sweet..... hope you are well!!!
from writergrrl88 :
I'm still hear (reading, anyway) -- I have a journal on LJ now. Are you writing anywhere else? I miss your updates. How are you?
from fake-angelic :
im still here. you havent updated in ages either, i miss that. i hope youre okay now.
from anasinger327 :
Hey, I don't know if you remember me (I've literally started like 4 or 5 notes with that in the past 10 minutes) but I used to read your diary and I hear you about the nobody-updates-here-anymore thing. What do you say we break the mold? Friends? <3
from portia69 :
Hello my Darling. You are THE angel

claire, i know its been so long. it's been years now. how did so much time pass?
from notspecified :
i miss yr entries claire.
from dimstar :
You are amazing too. Baby steps... and you are getting there, even if you cannot see it yet. (((hugs)))
from fake-angelic :
hey claire, hope you had a fantastic birthday (and every day afterwards) :)
from comfortm :
Hi claire. Happy 21st birthday! Diaryland is dead these days, very dead..i think everyone has moved on to msypace lol.
from ethereal-red :
Claire. I am happy you updated, even if just to let us know that you are still alive. And I am so glad you are.
from dimstar :
Hey hon, I sent you an e-mail... I hope you got it as I sent it a few days ago. I hope you are hanging in there. Please remember, baby steps.
from dimstar :
I sent you an e-mail a while ago too, about a month or so? Maybe a bit longer. I just wanted to make sure you are okay, let you know that I still care, and that I realize how sick we were at the time we met and how that really strained our relationship bc we both cared so much about one another, and that it is always difficult to watch another suffer. I will always care about you Claire.
from dimstar :
I know we don't talk anymore but I still keep tabs on you, hoping that you are doing okay... I know you can beat this too Claire. Please take care of yourself.
from tfrunner262 :
Claire-- I'm glad to hear that you're doing better after getting out of IP. I'm sure that simply being stronger than you were before is a huge improvement, although being in IP and having to spend time at home afterward probably was a strain mentally. I'm sure it must be hard to spend time anywhere that people think of you as the 'sick person.' However, a lot of those people probably don't really realize; it seems that half of the time when one expects other people to have figured it out they really just think you have some illness or that "the thin girl is STILL trying to gain weight." At any rate, perhaps going back to uni will be a help. I remember that transferring here to the university where I am now made all the difference for me. Another thing that might help is if you are able to meet any recovered people in your outpatient groups. Sometimes, it helps just to know and see someone who did make it and got better -- it kind of gives you hope when you feel like giving up. You've been so strong throughout all of this that I know you can make it through and get to live the sort of life you want to live. Just try to keep fighting it now while you are stronger. Fight so that you can do well in your studies and be free to go out with your friends and do all of the things you wished you could do before. One thing I did, and still do sometimes, when I feel like I'm slipping is try to make a list of all of the things I want to do that I can't do when I'm sick. It seems that being better yields all of this time and you won't know what to do with it or how to fill it up at first. So whenever I felt alone with my eating disorder I would look at the list and try to do one of the things I had been wanting to do for so long. As time goes on, those things start to replace the eating disorder. I know I've let this note become incredibly long (sorry about that) but I'm just so glad to hear that you're doing somewhat better and wanted to encourage you to keep going. I'm so happy to hear that you've been so strong. XOXO
from writergrrl88 :
I hope you find wellness and comfort -- you deserve health and happiness. *hugs* I'll be sending good, healing thoughts your way.
from sorrowshadow :
you'll be fine, honey. stay strong for a little bit while more :)) I hope everything works out fine for you.
from hibiscus101 :
oh hun. its been so long since i left you a note. it sounds like your doing a little better. im glad. big hugs as always. :)
from ethereal-red :
That sucks that you're in the hospital but I am glad you are there so you are safe. You're already making huge steps towards getting better. I miss your updates. I was wondering what happened to you. I'm glad you're safe.
from tfrunner262 :
I'm sorry to hear that you've had to go to the hospital, but I hope you won't have to stay there too long and that they will be able to help you. It sounds like you are making good progress though! I wish you the best in your recovery and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. ((hugs)) xoxo
from anainsight :
Hey, I don't know if you will get this note but I hope you do! I am thinking of you and sending good thoughts your way, and hope you will be out of the hospital soon. Maybe when you get out you can get some therapy. I hope so. Be well and take care! (((hugs)))
from portia69 :
Your precious. always will be to me.
from iam-perfect :
love you beauty queen. be well darling.
from brokenmirror :
Angel, I am so happy that you like the posters and that it made you smile!! You're so pretty, though indeed you look sick, but your face is still so pretty and there's no sign of being fat or ugly in it!!! And I wish you could let go, not of life but of this illness that keeps you caged. I'm happy to hear that this jack moved out, he was a jerk and he was disgusting!! I'm glad your mum sees it now, too! See, it was absolutely okay to hate him :) Unfortunately I didn't get your text message :( I love you my sweet beautiful angel and I'm always here for you at any time!!! I wish we weren't so far away from each otehr and I wish there were something that I could to make you get better!!! i heart you so much =X= Ria
from anainsight :
Merry Christmas!
from caged-freed :
Hey, this is just a note to let you know that I'm trying to resurrect C.A.G.E.D. - and I really hope you'll contribute. Check out the updated info, and take care!
from sadhaven :
Hello, I just wanted to let you know about this new public diary called "sadhaven." It is for people who suffer from mental illness and/or addictions to vent and express themselves. If you would like to know more take a look around. Thank you.
from anainsight :
I wish that you were doing better. I hope that you will get better. Maybe it will be good to have a nice visit. And I hope you will get to enjoying university more. I loved it when I was in school. I made a lot of friends. Funnily enough, though, that's when my E.D. started getting really bad. I guess the two things aren't mutually exclusive. anyway. I am going out of town tomorrow, without access to phone, TV or internet, but I will be home next week and I hope that you will be feeling better. I am thinking about you and if I were not way over here in Georgia I would give you a hug. peace!
from claudia- :
Hey, I used to read your diary a few years back... I stopped because I stopped writing because I thought I was better. I was for about 2 years, but now I'm going through my first relapse. I think you're a really strong girl :)
from anainsight :
I am so thrilled that you are going away to uni. Even if you are scared, I think that maybe you can make some new friends and have some new interests. I hope you can, anyway. That will be good for you. I will be thinking about you. peace!
from pollys-pins :
Hey hun - congrats! Wow u genius :) which uni are you going to? anywhere near me? If you want a chat about uni life u know where I am - have had some of the best and worst of it so I can prepare. Am on hol for next 6 days - but drop me an email with any Q. sure I can give you some good advice :) xxx
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* My one piece of advice for going to uni...sign up with the GP when you arrive abd if you feel comfortable enough get a physriatic nurse or similar. Mine was fantastic, she let me ruin my life until I was ready to change and in the meantime kept me from falling apart. I didn't see her all the time and she never told me to stop self harming but she was someone who understood how hard it was to be at uni with bipolar and she was just there for me. We are still friends now:) Some therapists are arseholes it's true but if you find someone you trust they can be such a help. Also my uni had a sick bay which was basically a tv room where anyone could visit if they were having a rough time and needed some time out. They even had beds so you could stay over if you needed to. Don't worry honey, Universities are used to dealing with all sorts of issues that we have and are generally much more sympathetic than any Doctors I've met. You'll be fine! Congratulations and Enjoy. If you ever want any help from an uni pro :) feel free to ask. All My Love Lostunicorn
from anainsight :
Hey, thanks for your sweet note. My sugars are actually pretty good at the moment; my last A-1C was 6.5, which is really good considering that six months ago it was 13. So I really can't complain. Hope you'll soon be doing well too. I have a good feeling about your going to university. It will be good to get away and make a change, and I hope you'll find you some new good friends. Be good, and I'm sending you a big hug!
from tfrunner262 :
Congrats on doing so well in all of your classes!! I am so happy to hear that they turned out well. I also hope that you really enjoy going to uni next month. It will probably feel like a big step at first, but I bet you'll be able to meet plenty of people and go out and have fun too -- and that might boost your spirits a bit :) I'm so proud of you Claire. luvs XOXO
from anainsight :
Congratulations, I'm so proud of you for persevering and doing well in school despite how much you were struggling. I wish you well at university. If you're determined to change, I would like to offer a piece of advice that's working well for me so far: Just pick up and do the next right thing. If that means taking a shot, then take your shot. If it means going to a meal and eating, then go do it. Just concentrate on doing "the next right thing" and do it over and over, and it will eventually become easier. I wish you lots of fun and serious learning, and I hope you'll pick a field of study which you enjoy. Being in school is difficult, but when you don't study for something you like, that is meaningful to you, then it's that much harder. I am sending you a lot of love and a big congratulatory hug from way down here in Georgia.
from lostunicorn :
Hiya Honey, Its deleted:) Sorry for late reply was on honeynmoon. Love Cheryl x

from purgingme :
how did your appointment go. i hope your health is ok despite your blood sugar levels. loosing weight at this point is only hurting you. i wish you could stop. i wish you happiness and health claire. i love you girl. xo sharla
from comfortm :
i dont know if its because im a mother now and i dont want to sound like im lecturing you but please take care of yourself and take your insulin injections. I watched my father go downhill from diabetes. He didnt take care of himself and developed neuropathy in his legs, then got his leg cut off and died from pneumonia due to his weakened immune system from the diabetes. He was a brittle diabetic just like you. I miss him alot. I know there are people that love you and will be sad if you go downhill from diabetes. You may not think that no one cares...but I live far away from you and it makes me sad to see you are struggling so and i hope things get better Claire i really do. I dont want the same thing happen to you that happened to my dad. Please try Claire, we're all supporting you.

Hey sweet darling!! I'm glad you like the present and that you're not angry at me for the long silence!! I am so happy to be your friend and I feel blessed to know someone as wonderful as you are!!! I love you angel and I hope you'll have a nice time on holidays! Just don't worry too much! Love you heaps, =♥=
from aorist :
Hi sweetheart ! Thank you for the card. I love you for worrying about me. You are such a dear. I am sorry I have been absent. Life was unsettled for a while, but now I am in therapy and got a new job and things are ok again. I got my kitten and ended up naming her Tomorrow, Morrow for short. Please know that you are NEVER ever bugging me. I love hearing from you! I will write back via snail mail soon, ok ? I hope you are doing ok dear. Thanks so much for thinking of me. It made my whole month! I need to go read your updates soon on your dland too. I guess I should update mine sometime but I am so busy. It sucks! Miss you xoxox Jo
from slightscream :
From the length of your notes section, it seems you have TONS of support. Everytime I read your diary, I wish I could at least give you good blood sugar controls. Because once the damage is done, there's no going back. And I believe strongly that if you were get treatment, and challenge those voices that tell you you are bad, or have to be super skinny to be happy (How's that workin' for ya?), and whatever reason you think you have to put your body through hell on a daily basis, you could get better, FEEL better, realize it doesn't have to be this way. I hope you'll get a chance to have at least a few weeks of decent nutrition, good blood sugars, people to talk to, paper to write on, at whatever cost. This can't wait; even university can, if that what it comes to. You are young. It is NOT to late to have a long, full, and love-filled life. Otherwise, it will be heart trouble, stroke, vision loss, dialysis, amputation, measel-like looking legs, infections way more unsightly than extra pounds, life in a wheelchair, etc. Love yourself like a little puppy, and when you don't want to, ask why? Does your punishment REALLY fit any crime you may have committed? Peace.
from cheekyash :
i guess i forget that there is a need to be articulate at times. sorry again
from cheekyash :
sorry, i don't even remember pressing the 'done!' button for that. but i guess that's just what i thought when i read your diary, not just what you wrote, but how you wrote it. it's all amazing
from cheekyash :
wow
from sad-faerie :
Of course...just give me an e-mail address and I'll send you the info =O) x
from sad-faerie :
I feel so close to you x mind if I add you? x
from beauthentic :
Hey sweetie, hang in there o.k. ?? Trust me, you do NOT want to start cutting again... I battled self injury for 16 years, it is a horrible cycle to get out of. In the end of my self injury, I was completely out of control - and most of my cuts required stitches. Now, over 1 year self injury free - I am left with the consequences. Lots of ugly thick scars. It's hard when you have to explain to people why you can't wear shorts, or why you have to wear shirts that have long enough sleeves, why you can't get in a bathingsuit, or not being able to go get a pedicure or a message, and god forbid being intimate with someone who has never seen you naked before... Yah, it is NOT fun, especially when you haven't done it in so long - and there is evidence of it every single day of your life. It's rather disgruntling... Please don't end up like me hon.... (( Hugs )) Love you <3
from anainsight :
just because what you want to say seems stupid to you, it isn't to the rest of us. just say what you feel. I'm thinking of you during exams. peace!
from lithorian :
You're lovely.
from anainsight :
Hey, thanks for your sweet note. I really appreciate it. It's going to be really hard on me for a while because my mother has always been my constant companion, and now I'm alone. I honestly don't know what to do with myself. anyway. Thanks for being there for me. peace!
from tenebrosity :
heya babe, sorry to hear you sounding so desperate. just wanted to say i'm hear if you want to talk, email me if you do. luvya and thinking of you. clare xxx
from rapethismind :
Hey, I've been reading your diaryland for at least a couple of years or so now but I've abandoned dland lately. Anyways, I hope that one day you can figure out how to be happy...like really happy, content. Is that even possible? If it is, I hope you get there. Do you have a myspace? <3Emy
from beauthentic :
Hey hon, I wanted to let you know I will be closing down my diaryland site.. I have been on Xanga for several years, and I am going to stick with it, finding it too hard to keep up with both. My xanga is www.xanga.com/i_am_perfectlyimperfect or my email is [email protected] Much Love !! Talk to you soon (( Hugs ))
from anainsight :
I just wanted to say hi to you, and send you a hug. My little poodle sends lots of cute little poodle kisses too. Try to study hard because I think you'll like university a lot better than college (if the English system is like our own, it sounds like it is). I wish you all the best. peace!
from beauthentic :
Hey hon !! Something my therapist told me quite a while ago was "If you used even half of the energy you use at maintaining your disease - towards getting better - you would have been better a long time ago! You can channel that energy in a positive direction, you already use the energy towards self destruction. It's all the same energy, it's just up to you what you put it in to".... So true, So true ... Hang in there hon, you're in my thoughts Much <3
from beauthentic :
There are answers... You're just not looking in the right places .. The answers lie within you, but you have to be willing to find them. Sending you positive thoughts for a good day today, and lots of love <3
from fitofdestiny :
Sweetie... You are gorgeous! Why are you doing that to your body? *hugs*
from genuine-risk :
Claire, how are you? xoxoxo.
from beauthentic :
Hi hon... A lesson that took me a really long time to learn (like practically my entire lifetime thus far!) is that perfection is just an illusion. There is no such thing, it simply does NOT exist. I realized the more and more I strove to become that "perfect girl" the less and less I found her, the more and more I hated myself. Obviously, not "logical" to the ED-mindset! Really, the closest thing I have ever found to any assemblence of "perfection" is self acceptance for me - as I am - in this very moment. Chasing the image in the mirror, or the numbers on the scale, or the better (perfect) grades, etc., is really just a waste of energy, and the fact that it NEVER IS good enough and it NEVER IS different, is just a set up for disaster. Hang in there hon, you are in my thoughts <3
from aorist :
hugs... how are you doing honey? Just wanted to say hi. Miss you. Have you thought of any names for my kitty? I am going to see her again soon. I will take pictures and email them to you, if you like. Love you. Jo
from pollys-pins :
Hey hun I have moved diaries my other one was being an arse xxx kate xxx hope you're ok
from anainsight :
When you write about what you're feeling, I can so relate, and I want to let you know that it is NOT normal for you to feel so bad. I wish you would print out a couple of pages of your diary and take them to your mental health professional the next time you go. Your meds obviously need adjusting. I'm going through a med change myself right now and it isn't any fun, but the thought is that once I get used to it, I may feel better. I wish you peace and if I were not way over here in Georgia I would give you a hug.
from kari92 :
oops, oops, oops; I need to learn to proofread before posting. A few lines down is supposed to read "it isn't that I <i>don't</i> care"
from kari92 :
I am 1 of those people who reads your diary regularly but (mostly) doesn't leave msgs. The reason isn't that I care or that I get frustrated or angry, but that I think you would resent me intruding when you don't know me. The truth is, I wish I did know you so that I could try and make you realise how much of an amazing person you are. I would also love to be able to help you in some way, but I know that it is you who has the strength and power to eventually reach out and ask for the help you deserve. You can, and I believe will, make it out of where you are right now. I love reading your words because they are so true of so many people, and I myself have written (still write) similar things so many times before. I am not "recovered" and I sometimes wonder, too, if I ever will be. But, I am a much happier person than a year or 2 ago, even if there's still a way to go. So I know that change is possible - and I once believed it wasn't. Hang in there. So many people do care about you. xox Kari (and I'm sorry this is so long!)
from tfrunner262 :
The words of your last entry were so perfectly written that one would think you're a professional writer. You're very talented and I wish you could see that through your negative feelings. I remember actually writing an entry one time that had the similar idea of "everyone I ever knew who had an eating disorder has recovered long ago, why can't I?" I know it's hard, even my own recovery is far from perfect, but don't give up hope that you can recover. I think I went into recovery a little over a year later from when I wrote those very similar words. I don't tell too many people my real feelings either; I'm probably more of this mystery person online who has issues than I am the "real world" person with issues. It's a start to be able to tell anyone though; so by writing here you've taken a step toward telling someone -- and that's certainly progress. I'm sorry I've let this note grow so long, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Take care ~luvs~
from purgingme :
claire, when are you going to let someone into your world so they can help you. you are more than this dissorder. i wish there was something i could do, but what can i do from across an ocean. take care of yourself. my thoughts go out to you. xo sharla

HAPPY ((BELATED)) BIRTHDAY HUN!!
from tfrunner262 :
HAPPY B-DAY!!! I hope you had a good one... that's actually my dad's b-day too, so maybe i'll remember it from now on :) I hope you enjoy your break from school and get some rest, you certainly do deserve it. Take care ~luvs~
from ponyluv :
happy happy birthday day!! big hugs and i hope you have a good one! (i'm not stalking you or anything, i just saw it on TF! :)
from aorist :
Hugs :) I miss you hon. You are right, too. We are very similar. I am going to read up on your diary today at workstudy. By the way, Happy Early Birthday. Love you. Jo
from ethereal-red :
I am so relieved to find that you are alive, even though you aren't doing well. I know the pain of feeling like a daughter who only exists to unintentionally dissapoint her mother. My mom deserves a daughter who is in college, went to prom, has had partners, who smiles and spends time with friends, whose existance does not revolve around therapy, groups, pills, appointments, hospitalizations and ECT treatments. I cost her so much money, even though the Medical Assistance insurance covers so many of the bills. All I am is a reject, a broken doll... my family deserves something better than what they got when it comes to me. So much better.
from tenebrosity :
heya claire, sorry for worrying you. am having treatment on an intensive day programme at the moment. i keep meaning to update then don't know what to say or where to begin. i will update soon. take care xxx
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* Always here
from genuine-risk :
It seems like so long since you updated. Are you ok?
from genuine-risk :
Claire honey you need to reach out. You don't sound safe and I am worried. Are you drinking sports drinks or doing anything to avoid your chemistries getting too out of whack? I don't want you to have a heart attack. :( xoxox
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* I try to understand honey:) I'm adding another item to your new yesra list....Meet up with lostunicorn...What do you think? xxxxxxxxxxxxx
from ethereal-red :
Claire, it has been so long since you last updated (well, a long time for me at least), and I am so sad that your holiday and purging have really, really been bad. I used to be so jealous of successful bulimics- I have a terrible time getting everything up... okay, ANYTHING up. Now, as I read your entry, there is no jealousy, only a deep sadness, and a wish that I could wave a magic wand and make you all better. I wish I could do something more than just read your diary and converse with you through it. I wish I could help. I wish that both of our realities were simple nightmares that we can wake up from.
from getinline :
Sorry to hear that things have been so rough, but it does sound like it's getting a bit easier. Just hang in there, as cliched as that is :)

hey sweets.. i know you from TF. By any chance do you know what the heck has happened to it? It seems to have disappeared... odd. Can you email me ([email protected]) if you know what the deal is..
from anainsight :
Hi, I am thinking of you tonight and wishing good things for you. I am choosing to be optimistic and hope for better things in 2006. I want my recovery and there is no one going to stand in my way to get it. If I could I would wish upon a star to shine on you and brighten your life, but I will light a candle for you and I wish you a happy Christmas and hope that 2006 will bring good things to you. And I send you a hug and a lot of love from way over here in Georgia. peace!
from genuine-risk :
How are doing? :hugs: You deserve to get well. Are you going to find a counselor?
from purgingme :
without health there is not much you can do, at least do well. and i know that you are talented and skilled at your craft. i think treatment should be your number one priority, if your ready for it. and it sounds as if you are. to be blunt. go get the help you need and fuck school. xo sharla
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* You can do it honey. Find a therapist, they will help you deal with all the thinking. I understand why you want to finish college but don't go straight to uni...get better first. I know from experience that everything can get 100x worse at uni because you have ultimate control and freedom. Good luck honey I'm always here for you. All my love Cheryl x
from tenebrosity :
claire, (((hugs))). i know it is so horribly difficult to admit but in the long run our health is so much more important than our education. we can go back to our education at a later point when we are well, but if we totally screw up our health now whilst trying to continue our education then it is likely that we will end up abandoning education anyway because we are too ill to continue. i have just had to make that decision. and you know what...yeah my education is important to me and i feel like taking a break from it is failing in some way but if i neglect my health any longer i am totally setting myself up for failure in all aspects of my life. i have decided to take the rest of the academic year off from uni and am having day patient treatment to focus on recovery and getting myself well enough so that I can pick up my education again next year. i really feel for what you are going through right now. please take care hun and try to make some healthy decisions to take care of you. if you want to talk i am here clare xxx
from emaciana :
your last entry sounded so sad... i have had to make that decision before. health or education. i realized that the education will always be there but you can permanently ruin your health right now adn you won't be able to get that time back later on.
from purgingme :
a big hug for you. i know, when words fail it seems so strung out. but im here and as alway thinking of you. xo sharla

i dont know what to say girl, i hope you find some peace within yourself. getting better is scarry but death might be more scarry. just know im thinking of you and sending good thoughts. xo sharla

this is what i think claire... your beautiful (i have seen your pictures), your painfully smart (not anyone can read Woolf with ease) and so talented (dont fight this one, i have been reading your writing for ages now). so chin up girl, and let someone tell you the good things about yourself and try to believe it for once. sending my love. xo sharla
from perfect-race :
Claire, reading your entry reminded me a bit of what I went through when gaining weight. Although when I did it last I was trying to gain weight, I remember hating it at times. However, you know how you say that you feel hungry all of the time... well, if you keep these small portions of food down that hunger will start to decrease and, honestly, the more you can keep down and stay away from purging the less hunger you will have. Although that part probably sounds obvious, here's the thing, once you keep the food down for a while without purging you won't get as hungry even if you don't eat. Now, I am not trying to advocate not eating or anything, but I know that had I known that when I was gaining weight it would have helped to motivate me. Honestly, sometimes I have problems remembering to eat now and could go a couple days forgetting without getting hungry -- which of course is when I get into the doctor or support group anymore. Anyway, I know what you are going through is SO hard, but try to keep positive (even just a little positive, ok) and what you are doing is really good. I am so proud of you! AND, I totally envy your abilities with literature -- I'm trying to improve my own, but I am sure I don't possess the gift for it that you have! Take care, ok? much love XOXO

You poetry is breathtakingly brilliant. You have such talent, Claire.
from ethereal-red :
Claire, the way you express your pain is absolutely beautiful, you really are a talented poet. I only wish the pain wasn't there in the first place, and I wish I could make it all better for you... but I can't. And I'm sorry.
from genuine-risk :
I'm concerned.
from mjraven87 :
Yeah, I know that feeling! It takes me ages to write something and then I'll keep changing it but still never be 100% satisfied with it. I'm like that with all of my college work and it drives me mental. I just wish I could do a piece of work and be happy with my first attempts. Ahh well, take care xxx
from mjraven87 :
You poem is really touching, Claire xxx
from lostunicorn :
*HUGS* I do understand honey, I know exactly how you feel. I had a friend called N who I met online and one day it just all went wrong. Falling out with her affected me so much that real friends couldn't understand why I seemed to be grieving for a living person. It was the worst feeling in the world especially when she refused to speak to be and locked me out of her online diary, however three years later and we do now email occasionally and read each others diaries, we are not close, far from it but time has helped heal. Thinking about it still hurts though. If you ever need someone to talk to I'm here honey. Lots of love from Cheryl p.s check your email:)

You are who you are, you shouldnt doubt yourself. I hope you get to a point where you are ok with just being you, i know how painful it is to be hiding in the shadows and to be scared of life. Hang in there ((hugs))

I love you and do not wish you had never excisted....just so you know:) *hugs* Love always Cheryl xxx
from mjraven87 :
I am the same with cereal. I can't stop eating it... any puddings we have in the fridge are gone as soon as I am alone and I always get shouted at for it but you just can't help it can you? Even when you know the consequences.
from purgingme :
im glad to here that your appointment went ok. doctors are so scarry. but i get what your saying. its like you want to scream, look at me im sick i need help please help me get out of my own hell. instead you put your head down and go through the motions and when they let you go your relieved and frightened. yeah i have been there. take care of yourself. xo sharla
from ethereal-red :
It amazes me that you can still go to school- you try so hard and push yourself so much. I went on an extended medical leave three years ago and haven't gone back yet. I have so many hopes and dreams for you, Claire, and I know that someday they will come true.
from writergrrl88 :
Good luck ... and thousands of best wishes. xo ~lita~

Good luck xxx
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* You *want* to get out...that will save you honey. You will make it I just know:) As for your teeth...I'm not sure but use loads and loads of mouth wash. My gums are crap due to my inhalors but when I can be bothered to use mouth wash they do improve:) Love you x
from anainsight :
hi, thanks for your sweet note. I don't know the extent of the fraud and it could take years to get my credit straightened out. People treat you like the criminal when you have a flag on your credit. My sugars are running in the 200's right now which isn't good, but for me is better than it has been. I'm just so frustrated because they keep upping my insulin dosage but they don't seem to get better. Oh well. I'm so glad you're attending classes more. I envy you for still being able to go to school. I had to drop out. Keep up the good work hun, and if they can find you a place to go to treatment, I hope you'll take advantage of it. I can't go to treatment because I don't have insurance or a job, and the one thing I want most dearly is the chance to go, because I so want to get better. I wish you peace and I send you a hug from way over here in Georgia.
from perfect-race :
Try to look for the positives in life, you're such a strong person and you ARE improving! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I moved here.
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* I love you honey, no absences is amazing...read back over some older entries...you would have never made no days off then. It is a positive entry in a way:) Take care Cheryl x
from emaciana :
hugs*i hope you can find something positive. one thing a day. maybe the fact that so many people care about you. love love
from ethereal-red :
Oh, Claire... I don't know what to say. I know how you feel even though I'm not bulimic. I know the bingeing. I know the purging. I know the dental problems. I know it's terrible. Try to hang in there. I know you do your best. I wish I could make it all better.
from genuine-risk :
You can make it honey. The opportunity is there.
from genuine-risk :
I know you're scared hon, but you're also miserable. You could go to a group and just sit there, you don't have to tell your story at the first session. Just involving yourself in something recovery oriented would be helpful. I know that most TFers hate this place, but even SomethingFishy.org would be good for you right now. How long can you write about your misery and live it alone? It's the same thing Claire, every single day and you don't deserve it. There is nothing to lose by peeking your head out of the darkness. Notes on diaryland can only do so much. I hate to see you languishing when you don't have to be. You must reach out to someone in real time. You can do it. Think of Gwen and I and how we are trying to seek a better life. There is nothing that separates you from us. You just have to take the first step. There isn't a single thing to lose by starting.
from genuine-risk :
Why not find a support group and go? There's no reason to wait for the diabetes appointment at the end of the month. You have nothing to lose, and if you're tired of living this way, you have everything to gain.
from sharpsecret :
'This eating disorder has me so close. I cannot breathe. ' beautifully said
from genuine-risk :
There are social services and options out there for people who are economically disadvantaged. There are support groups and community programs. I don't believe for one moment that there is nothing that exists to help you.
from genuine-risk :
Ask your mom to get you a counselor. Nothing will change until you seek some help. You can do that.
from ethereal-red :
Claire, can you get any help? Fuck college. You can always take a leave and then go back. It's what I have to do. I know you don't believe this, but your health and life are worth far more than a bunch of classes you're dragging yourself through. I am very worried. I don't want you to die.
from genuine-risk :
I am the last thing/person you should be worrying about....you're fine. Please do not ask me again if I don't like you. That is what I don't like. Have a nice day hon.
from genuine-risk :
Again, I do not believe I have said anything negative about you. The only thing that could be construed as even slightly negative is when I said that I felt it was inappropriate when you accused me out of nowhere of being "the type who takes sides." In fact I think your notes to me have been somewhat aggressive, and I think that is misplaced and, again, inappropriate. My apologies if you are displeased that my notes have been plainspoken and that I have not left a lot of flowery "hugs" and "xoxo" and "stay strong," but in my opinion, honesty is more valuable than that. You are also not hearing what I AM saying to you. If you want an escape from your unhappiness now then you are going to have to take a baby step and get someone professional beyond diaryland and your family to speak to. Perhaps that isn't what you want to be hearing from me, but it is the one thing I feel obligated to say. Otherwise, I am tired of the implications you are making and think you are projecting some issues onto my words.
from genuine-risk :
In fact - why don't you read over my notes again, objectively. I think you are reading negativity into my words. I have given a lot of constructive support.
from genuine-risk :
I don't understand why you now have a problem with me and the notes I have left you. I would assume that it is because I am friends with Gwen. There is nothing wrong with what I said. If you want something to change you have to take a step. Obviously I am not suggesting you "get over it" because I know that is impossible for all of us to do in the short term. But if you want your life to change you need to take a baby step and get someone professional to speak with about this besides Diaryland. All of the online hugs and xoxo's are not as important as that fact, and it's the best advice I can give.
from rachy-rai :
it's about time you updated your pics page. By the way, regarding the chains, Jesus Christ can set you free from that. People may laugh and diss, but it's true. Your struggles will all still be there, but with God ANYTHING is possible. It's just a thought. I know it's changed my life even when I struggle like mad. NOBODY can mock Christianity UNTIL they've tried it, and once they've tried it they'll never look back. It's the best decision anyone can ever make and tonight I am going to pray for you. With love xxx
from genuine-risk :
It doesn't have to be this way Claire. You have the choice - you need to seek professional help. A counselor would be a good start.
from lostunicorn :
keep running one day you will escape this disorder, just keep that hope alive and you will be just-fine:) Love you honey x
from anainsight :
I think it is so sad that you would think no one would care if you updated. I don't talk to you very often, and I feel bad about that. I feel like I should be talking to you all the time because you have the courage to write down all the things that you feel. They are exactly the same things as I feel but I don't have the eloquence to put them down in words the way you do. I understand so much about how you feel so worthless. I do too. I guess that's one reason I don't write to you like I should. Because I feel that way all the time, and I don't really know what to say to you when you write. The only thing I can think of to say to you is, "I know EXACTLY how you feel" but somehow that sounds so trite. The way you describe your depressed feelings is so real to me. I can almost see you sitting there. Even though we have never met in person, we still go through so many of the same struggles. I struggle every day with depression and with eating and trying to stop myself from deliberately skipping my insulin. Just about the only thing I don't do is, I don't purge anymore. But the crazy thoughts are still there. I'm sorry this note is so long but what I really wanted to say was, please keep writing and updating and being so totally honest about how you feel. And I would be so very worried about you if you were to disappear. I send you peace and a lot of love, and if I were not way over here in Georgia I would give you a hug.
from lostunicorn :
I was worried honey, that's why I sent you a text. *Hugs* You can do this honey, please try and get therapy:) All my love forever <3 <3

If Hayley hadn't updated soon I would have been frantic with worry. You are cared for here despite what you may think.

from sharpsecret :
im thinking u need to get proper therapy before you end up in hospital again,your sinking and refuse to be saved, i love u, ring me soon im worried about u
from genuine-risk :
Claire, you have control over your destiny. You need to get professional help to get out of this place. I am not taking any sides and do not appreciate that insinuation. That was not appropriate. Please do not involve me in any conflicts. However I do feel that if you are going to apologize for offending people about what happened, I am not the right person. In addition, please do not make any assumptions about what I have or have not heard from Gwen. She has been very respectful and discreet in saying anything to anyone.
from tfrunner262 :
I wish you could realize what an absolutely beautiful person you are. Please don't give up on recovery because it IS possible and you are worthy of it -- even if you don't feel that way. Take care as best you can -- one day at a time. ~luvs~
from genuine-risk :
I'm here and I'm fine, thank you for the concern. I don't hate you, in fact I don't hate anyone. Hate is such a strong word. You did nothing to offend me or anything you should apologize to ME for. If you want to apologize it should not be to me.
from fat0free0air :
I wish you could look at yourself and smile and that you didn't have to go through all this pain. Reading your diary hurts me too because I see myself in it, I can understand it. We have the same fears. I hope your barbeque goes okay and you don't get too carried away after wards. Even if you don't love yourself, there are still people that care about you. Take care hun <3
from mjraven87 :
I posess none of the qualities you mentioned that make people like you either. I think "too sensitive for my own good" should also be part of that list
from ethereal-red :
I hope your trip goes better than you anticipate. Try to deal with the stress in ways outside of the eating disorder... I know that's hard. I have faith in you. You'll pull through this one. I can't wait to read how it went!

I hope that you have some fun while away. I'll be thinking of you, take care.

Claire, you really need to be seeing a professional. We all want to wake up, but I don't know if we can really do it alone, internally, by ourselves.

I am thinking about you honey. Please don't lose hope. It is only when you lose hope that you really are in trouble. I am thinking about you both. peace!
from kari92 :
Hi...I know you don't really know me, which is why I don't usually leave you notes, but sometimes I just feel compelled to do so. I'm really sorry your visit to Gwen hasn't gone as you hoped. It sounded like you were really looking forward to it, in a way that you haven't looked forward to anything for a while, and it would have been nice if you could have a great relaxing trip. But - and this is the real reason I'm writing this - please don't feel that it's automatically your fault! Just from reading your diary I know that you aren't the "bad person" you think you are. I'm not saying it's Gwen's fault either, because I've read her diary a few times and I know she's not "bad" either - it's just one of those things, that is probably bound to happen when people are in close proximity for a while. So try not to feel guilty :)
from genuine-risk :
I just wanted to offer some :hugs:. I am sorry it has been a little difficult. :( I hope you can work it out and enjoy your stay. xoxo.
from comfortm :
im sorry things aren't going well with you and Gwen. I'm sure things will work out. You just need to adjust to being around each other for the first time.
from tfrunner262 :
oh I'm soo sorry sweetie. I'm sure it isn't any more your fault or Gwen's. I'm guessing that she probably just feels really bad for you since she's been through so much herself and hates to see you suffer. AND, as far as being sick goes, it's different for everyone, as I'm sure you know. Maybe she sees you suffer in ways that she hasn't, and maybe even vice versa? Although we all go through the basics, the thoughts and some of the same symptoms and whatnot, I know that we all have our own stories and reasons -- and of course the things we go through as a result differ mentally and physically. It sounded like the two of you were both so scared of "messing up" so that the other of you wouldn't hate you. I think I would feel the same way, but just be yourself honey, we all know YOU for YOU the way you write and we all love you for who you are. I hope that the two of you can resolve this. You're both going through tough times. I don't know how things have been for you with this, but I know that at the times when I was really caught up in my eating disorder a lot it was harder for me to get along with my friends who I already saw everyday -- I was just so distant and too weak to do the things they were doing, but mostly the distant part. I can't even imagine how it would be with someone who you don't see everyday. Just keep trying (I'm always so happy to hear when you've made even the slightest improvement!) to take care of yourself and with you both trying your hardest hopefully things will play out well in the end. ~luvs~
from mjraven87 :
I'm sorry that things haven't been going all that great... I hope you managed to get some things resolved before you come back home
from anainsight :
i hope you have the wonderfullest of times. Give Gwen a hug for me. I am so happy for you both. Take those pink suitcases and go have a ball! I hope you like the U.S. I would so much love to go to London some day but that'll probably never happen. Have fun! (((hugs)))
from mjraven87 :
Yey pink suitcases!! They sound divine! Trying on clothes is always horrible, especially when you find that everything is a little tighter than when you last had it on... I expect to see many pictures when you get back :P

from dimstar :
One week, two days! Don't give up on yourself. And your father is being a jackass. A royal one at that. He doesn't know you and if he did he really would have to shut his trap. You are amazingly talented and brilliant. How are your sugars? Mine are high as all hell and I'm having difficulty bringing them down, even with shot after shot of Novalog. Its beyond discouraging, especially since I seem to be getting the horrid water retention and am still thirsty. Take care honey. You can do anything. You are amazing. xoxo Gwen
from mjraven87 :
I never go out, I know how it feels... on the odd occasion that I do get dragged out or I decide for some reason that I will enjoy myself I sit there and get slowly more and more depressed as the evening goes on. There is nothing worse than that feeling of being so distant from everybody around you laughing and joking the hours away and you are left sat there counting the minutes that refuse to pass.
from genuine-risk :
I am so glad that you and your family are ok. ::hugs:: Can't wait to read your thoughts and the things you are wanting to write about soon. xoxoxox.

hey sweets - thank you for your lovely note. It means a lot. I have been thinking of you. I am sad that I won't be able to see you next month. :(
from ethereal-red :
I found myself nodding to your words this evening, agreeing and feeling... sad. Sad that another person holds the pain inside her, that another person has to have the pain in the first place. To write it all down would make this a huge note, so I will just say this: you are not alone. Email anytime: [email protected]

from simplyrayne :
From what I've read of your diary (I've had you added under a few names each time I changed over the past 2 years) you are such a beautiful, caring, deserving person. I understand that you don't feel it, but know that there are people who see the beauty in you. Don't worry that you're falling again, there are so many ready and waiting to pick you back up. Take care. *hugs*
from dimstar :
Honestly Claire, its okay. People say things when they are drunk, whether they mean them or not, and people let them go the next day. Remember I told you what happened when I was high? They called an ambulance, and then I snapped out of my spun anxiety attack. We learn... I am just worried about your diabetes and purging, more than anything. I fear that you won't have the strength to make it this summer. I keep praying, and I know that you are trying. I guess what I am trying to say is... hang in there. Don't give up. Only a few more months and you will be here, as long as you are doing ok. I love you sweetheart. I believe in you so much and I think you are beautiful. xoxo Gwen
from tfrunner262 :
Thank-you so much for your kind note. I don't mind at all that you read. I read some of your diary and it makes me so sad to know what you go through. I can identify with you when you mention the stares you get from people. That happens to me all the time too -- when I was in remission last summer and weighed 104 pounds people still gave me the very same stares. It's really not escapable and best just to avoid them. I think you look so lovely in your pictures, you don't need to worry about looking ugly in the slightest. You look so fashionable the way you dress. I've heard many times before that all of Europe is so far ahead of the states when it comes to fashion -- and I think I'd have to believe that. I really hope that you are doing well, you have been through so much and you only deserve to overcome this. We all have our shortcomings and downfalls, and although I have no idea in the slightest how terrible it must be to have diabetes, I do know what it is like to have one condition or another that impairs you. In the long run, you will only be stronger, and don't let anything get to you because you have such strength. I actually used to have a heart condition and wasn't allowed to run for years, and although it went away I did lose some valuable time I could have been running, yet I still managed to beat people who had been runners for years. It just goes to show that as long as you are determined you can prevail. This has become rather lengthy and so I will stop now, but please stay strong as best you can. Take care, Luv, ~Kris~

from genuine-risk :
Claire, your most recent entry just hit my heart so hard. I feel like I wrote it myself. Oh sweet girl. I know how it is to be there and I'm sorry that we have to suffer for nothing. I'm here for you and I miss you. I don't even know what to say it affected me so deeply.
from dimstar :
I wish I could tell you what I see in you, but it is too much for words, too great for words. Being diabetic makes you more of a person. It makes you live with a hardship and deal with one that most people will never have to, and more empathetic to their problems. I do agree that it is unfair, however. I will never stop believing in you. You are so much more than you know. Please, don't give up trying. xoxo Gwen
from anainsight :
Hi Claire, I'm sorry your new term isn't off to such a great start. Please, please be nicer to yourself. I think you deserve so much better.

We worry because we love you. Don't ever apologize for causing us worry. You could be perfectly healthy and "fine" (mentally and physically) and we'd still worry about you, because you're a wonderful person, and we love you. <3<3<3
from dimstar :
Just leaving a note to tell you that I love you and that I am thinking of you. Please take care of yourself. Be gentle to yourself. Pretend like someone else is caring for you. You deserve happiness. To be well. Keep taking those injections and fighting the ed, because there will be a cure. It isn't too far away. (((hugs))) Gwen

I won't give up on you Claire. I genuinely care.
from deadpassive :
I must have read your diary for 3 years or something. I remember you, I don't think you remember me though. but anyway, your writing is beautiful, you have a special way with words, you're so talented. take care of yourself and hold on to the beauty in your life, xxx /marwa
from rainy-daze- :
Hey there, I feel as though I have to say this. I have just read about 60% of your diary entries (which took ages) and I want to let you know that I can relate to nearly everything of what you say. You write down how I feel in such an amazing way; a way that I could never do. I can't explain myself but I would like to say it's like you have gone inside my mind and written down my thoughts and feelings for me. I guess I want to thank you. I'm *exactly* the same as you in the way I try SOOO hard to help my friends, and they all walk all over me but I still don't get mad with them. I care so much for you, I really do. I'm not expecting a reply because I know you're busy and have *millions* of notes from all your readers, but I want you to know I feel so similar to how you feel. Be safe, Claire. With love and hugs from Rachel xx

Honey, happy birthday. I will be thinking of you! You are loved. xoxoxoxo.
from silentpearl :
Just so you know. I think your spectaculiar. You are not defined by a BMI! I know realizing that is an incredible struggle but maybe if you hear it alot and tell yourself that everyday, you might just start to believe it. You are so much more than an eating disorder and a BMI. You are an amazing person. And you know what? Birthdays are never what you expect. Ageing never goes as planned. Believe me, if life followed a set path we would all be bored out of our minds. Then what would make us interesting? If I had to hear about every 18 year old's perfect life complete with a boyfriend and excellant college marks...well I then I wouldn't find anybody even remotely unique. Life throws curveballs, so catch them with grace. Please don't think I'm lecturing you..I just want you to know how lucky we all are to have such an amazing young lady reach 18 years of age. So Happy Birthday!!!!

I was looking through your most recent photos, and I just wanted to say that you're really, really pretty. (I'm not a lesbian... I swear I'm not hitting on you.) I just thought, "Wow, she's so pretty, and has such beautiful eyes." and I guess I figured there's no harm in an honest compliment. You really are beautiful. i wish you felt that way. -Brynna
from genuine-risk :
Claire - I'm afraid for your life, the most I ever have been. I don't know what to do. You could have died from acidosis on Thursday. It breaks my heart. I love you and I'm sorry I haven't been as present as I should have been. I just don't have the words to tell you what you mean to people and how worried I am.
from small-one :
this is not your only option. i know it seems hopeless, but i'm living proof that it isn't. i was a "severe case," "chronic" if you'll allow for such a bull-shit diagnosis. . .for ten years, and sure, it took 10 years of being in and out of hospitals, threatened, and humiliated. . .i had to withdraw from college, twice. . .and decided it sucked. and i decided that i knew tons of people who were ass holes, but didn't torture themselves. . .so, i figured that maybe just maybe i might not deserve it like i once thought. and i started trying and experimenting with the wellness process. it took more than 5 years before i felt "normal" around food. at the grocery, or the dinner table. . .or at a restaurant. i still struggle now, in times of extreme stress but my WORST days in recovery are far better than my BEST days as an anorexic. it isn't hopeless, is my point. because NOTHING is. anything is possible, especially if you want it badly enough.

Hey, its me Steph from TF a.k.a wickedsquirt. I haven't been on TF much anymore as I've strayed unknowingly. I go back every once in a blue moon in spurts but I seem to be uninterested in it nowadays. Anyway, I just want you to know that it's not as hopeless as it seems. I know exactly how you feel, I've been there too, and it's scary as hell-but trust me, it CAN be in the past. There is so much life for you to live, and I hate to see you waste it on destroying yourself. You're such a beautiful person inside and out and it hurts me to see you hurt like this. But honey, there is definitely hope. Keep searching because it won't be disappointing.

heya Claire, no i don't think you are crazy! i did wonder whether you realised who i was when i got your note, was actually gonna pm you this evening to clarify! I don't think I ever told you where I lived so I'm not surprised you thought I was from the US, I always presumed that you were in the US until I saw you post in one of the UK threads. Anyway I had better stop rambling on. Take care. Clare xxx

Claire, so glad that you updated. I am constantly thinking of you, worrying... Don't worry if you don't reply. I just want you to do the best you can to take care of yourself at this point. I honestly had no idea that you hadn't taken your Lantus in six months. I am amazed that you are alive, let alone functioning at any level. Any endocrinologist would be amazed... Please sweetheart, keep it up. Every step counts, and I want to see you a bit better at the least. Because I want to meet you someday. And in a spot where we can have fun together. So we aren't both dysfunctional, too ill to do anything. I don't want to ramble Claire. I just want you to know that you are such a dear sweet soul. And you are extremely intelligent. Your dad doesn't know what he is talking about. I love you sweetheart. xoxo Gwen

Sweetheart, I love you, and I know that you can do this. Just take small steps, such as taking more insulin and purging less. Your body has been through so much.

from xnotenoughx :
Hey - all these steps you're taking may seem small to you (or anyone else who doesn't understand), but they're all gonna add up and be so beneficial to you. And asking your Mom to take the batteries out of your scale? I'm so amazingly proud of you. . .now, that? That's a BIG, that's a HUMONGEOUS step! I asked my Mom to hide her scale a few months back, and she did. . .but I knew my sister's was right in my bathroom to fall back on. . .so that's what I do now. I think getting rid of that scale is the strongest decision to ever make and fall through with. I think everyone should throw those damn things out. Who ever invented it, anyhow? Morons. . .*kisses*
from xnotenoughx :
I don't know what to say. You're writing is amazingly descriptive, and expresses feelings I don't even know how to express. I wish we were friends.

Claire, you are extremely talented, and with your empathy you could help so many people. I am so worried about you at this point. I get worried when you don't update. I fear that you are fading away. And it scares me. I love you sweetie. I am so far away... I wish I was there to help you. I want you to be better. I want you to be happy. Please, take you insulin. At least the long acting. You need it. You can't survive the high levels of ketones, especially not DKA. Your body is far too compromised already. I love you. xoxo Gwen

from mylostdream :
Here is my info to my diary as you asked :) : username: steel pw: wall
from pretoridpoet :
I just started reading your diary. Your writing is exceptional, your ability to combine poetry & your life is truly amazing. I must add I was scared when you didn't add an entry for a while. You seemed so sad & desperate in your diary that I was scared that you actually did something. Anyway I was relieved when you wrote another entry. I wondered what do hope to gain from being smaller?, 'cuase I know you know that it brings you more pain & makes you feel abnormal.
from rainy-daze- :
well I feel the same way. xxx
from miss-shirty :
I want to tell you that the pain goes away. That the world is beautiful, and wonderful. But I can't. It doesn't work that way. Still, you can be saved. I think. Get help. Seek it out. Talk here. Read here. It will show you, if nothing else, that you are not alone. Always, -miss shirty.

from kari92 :
I'm so sorry that you're still struggling and that things have been hard :( I wanted to say something about your last entry, and the guys who were writing notes etc. (which makes me want to cry). You are not ugly! I have seen photos of you, the ones online, and you are so pretty. Even in the ones when you're just in jeans and regular hair/ makeup, and in the ball ones you are beyond pretty! But at the same time, you are very very very thin, as shown in your latest ones. You look young and unwell and some people are going to use that as amunition against you; but it's a reflection on the e.d., not on you; so try not to take those comments personally. And I really hope things improve :(

your diary breaks my heart, so why do i continue to read it? is it because it's addictive? is because you're such a talented and gripping writer? is it because i care for you? is it because i just want you to know i want to help? is it because i can relate? all these questions, but no answers. you're such an amazing person, no words can express how amazing and special you are. you may not have true friends in the real world, but i can tell you that there are people from diaryland that truly LOVE you, and i mean that. I can't say i'm one of those, because i don't know you well enough. But i care, really i do. I care so much. i think about you so much during my day. i know all your pain is genuine and i have so much time for you. it would make my day for you to feel just a tiny bit better. you don't realise how loved you are claire. you're such a special girl, and one day, if you can hang in there, you'll shine and the bullies that got you down will be nothing. it seems impossible now, but i have faith in you. I know you can do it. not today, not tomorrow, but in time. i wish you all the best and want you to know that i am thinking of you, from my heart, every single day. With love and hugs, -Rachel xxxxxx
from anainsight :
hi Claire, I know that you are worried about Gwen, you are so sweet to think of others, but I am also worried about you. when I see your posts, and see the struggles that you have to make everyday to get through school, I feel ashamed of myself. I am struggling too, but I have no excuse as I only have to go to school one night a week (but I do have to do a lot of research). Will you let me make a pact with you, that we won't skip our insulin? I almost gave up after my last A1C reading but I'm still going at it even though every shot is a struggle. I want you to pact with me because I am so worried about you. I feel sure if you felt better, if your sugars weren't so high, that you would at least feel that much better. I know the higher my readings are, the more tempted I am to binge and therefore, purge. Please Claire, be good to yourself. I will pray for you like I'm praying for Gwen. If I were not in Georgia I would give you a hug. peace! Carole

Your mom's boyfriend sounds like he has some problems of his own..thats especially why you should never listen to any of the hateful things that he has been saying to you. You are an amazing person and I pray that someday you will be able to say that to yourself in the loudest voice you can conjure up. Please take care of yourself ((big hugs))---angie A.k.a lina19 =)

My friend, there is no email listed for you so I must leave just one more note here along with the hundreds of others who obviously care about you. So for now, I will say only that you have the soul of a great poet, yet if any of us cling too tightly to darkness and sorrow, it can consume us. And in the end, it is not romantic or gothic...only sad and final. Please do not shut out the morning light that tries to enter your life; you are of far greater value than you realize. If I may serve or assist you in some small way, I am here. Peace and blessing to you - j <katanabright>

Oh, Claire. Your so beautiful;; how can you not notice? Girls would kill to have full lips like yours. And your eyes; there's so huge and innoncente. Don't EVER let others tell you otherwise. Your an angel.
from genuine-risk :
I love you so much sweetie. It is such an injustice that we are so far away and I can't hug you and make you feel happier. I love you.
from vapidmonkey :
Thank-you for the openess encased throught your diary. Tough lines, we tread, don't walk alone. <3
from mjraven87 :
I'm so sorry about what happened... I start college tomorrow as well and I am not looking forward to the canteen as it's just around the corner from my room. I can smell the sickening and enchanting smells wafting around the corner and I just hope beyond all hope that I will be strong enough to walk the other way... Good luck xxx
from ndthsmdy :
so i sort of just read all of your diary (yeah..all of it). i just wanted you to know that you have the ability to move somebody from thousands of miles away. sometimes that can mean a lot.
from person26 :
your friend shapsecret seems to be doing better, yet she was as bad off as you were, maybe worse. Just a theory, but ill guess that since she's 2 or 3 years older than you, that may be the difference. More years meens more maturing and living and thus more confudence. U are not much younger, the same may occur for you, it does for many people. If it happens for her it may for you so try and stick around.
from kmarie420 :
Somewhere in America, a girl is thinking of you and praying that you find some tiny reason to hang on to that thin strand of hope... Just know this...anorexia and bulimia are evil and tricky disorders...they feed our minds with disillusioned thoughts and cause us to believe that we are not worth eating, living, or taking up space. We are all worthy of life. Claire, you are worthy of life. K
from secretshame :
no no no you don't deserve any of what you're going through. you don't realise this yet but you are such a fantastic person. i really do believe that. the world needs more caring, nice, unselfish, creative people like yourself. one day soon you will find a reason to be better. xoxo. what units are you studying at university? :) are you doing writing??? love you heaps. gem
from mirrors-lie :
Claire, you are someone I've always cared for, yet we don't know each other. Seems the feeling's mutual, and that makes me feel good. Thank you, we should feel special we have each other! :-) You are such a beautiful person, and maybe like with me, things have to get worse before they get better, you know? We can get through this. Erica.
from stupid-jew :
Hi,I just found your diary through Boogiebeep's profile. I know this might sound stupid,but do you have any tips? I want to get below 100,but I don't know where to start. How do you deal with the hunger pains? please email me at [email protected]
from dimstar :
Claire, Sweetie, I hope that you are okay. I know that you aren't well. Can you log onto my diary? If not I will copy and paste the entries, and e-mail them to you. Please, try and eat some w/o purging, and take some long acting as well as some short acting. I love you. I want you to live. I want you to grow up and be able to have a life that you enjoy, and I want us to be able to meet. Please Claire... xoxo Gwen
from lostunicorn :
Hi honey I just sent you a very long text. Love you:) Love Cheryl xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
from dimstar :
Claire, sweetheart, of course I am not avoiding you. I don't know why my diary isn't showing up for you... Perhaphs it has something to do with your web browswer? Have you tried not directly linking from your buddy list and going straight to dimstar.diaryland.com ? I also changed my template, because the site that was hosting my old one went down. I am so worried about you Claire. Actually, I have been thinking about what to say to you, how to help, to tell you how much I care. I know how much pain you are in. I wish I could rescue you from it all... And I know that it is so hard to stop, like an oncoming train with you tied to the tracks. But don't give up on life. I am always here for you. And I will never be avoiding you. Please, take your insulin, at least some, if nothing else. For me, and for everyone else out there who cares, if you can't do it for yourself. Just ten units of Novaprid, fifteen of the long acting... So you don't die. Because that is what I fear most. And I care about you so much. I love you Claire. Please take care of your poor body. You deserve a break from this pain. You deserve to be happy.
from hindthesmile :
i don't know if it helps at all, but i have faith in you. i think you write so beautifully. and i know you don't know me, but i'm always here if you want to talk ok? ~hugs~, -lissie.
from punkonacloud :
Oh Claire. Your last entry broke my heart. I wish that someone could help you. Look after yourself please. I don't like t hear that you are feeling so sick and sad and are self harming again. Hopefully with double the dose of prozac you might start to feel better. I love you lots and lots.... Mel
from rainyeyes :
You're in my thougths *hugs* I know this feeling very well. You are strong, don't give up.
from rapethismind :
I love you. I don't know you, but I've been reading your diary for a long time, and I have come to love the words you write. And the ProZac...please, call someone. Let them know. And think about it, think to yourself if there's any change at all, for better, worse, or indifferent. Because ProZac just made me worse, only it was a different kind of depression. But I think I already left you a note on that. Please, take care of yourself. Or try to. To be honest, I worry rather often that one day you won't post anymore...whether ir be because you are just so depressed (or whatever it may be) that you just don't feel like posting...or whether it be the other, no doubt obvious, reason that I fear most. I'm here if you ever need to talk to someone. *hugs*

be brave, going out is scary but it gets easier each time I find, sometimes you pretend enough that it almost becomes real. we'll all be better eventually, take care xx
from onyx-cherub :
my love, i've missed you. i'm sorry i haven't written. i think of you often and the picture on your layout inspired me to write something. i've hated my writing for the last while but i think that'll change, thanks in part to you, dollface. <3 i'm always around, and i love you.
from secretshame :
hi claire:) i will never be sick of you or the words you write. you are beautiful. you tell your stories so articulatly and you make me feel like i completely understand you. i know that's impossible, because i am not you, but you make people understand. next time you see that woman, please please please please please go and say hi to her. she probably needs someone to talk to. and i think you do too. and also, im so sorry that your friends don't treat you equally. it hurts more than anything, i know. that used to happen to me a lot. hold on claire, you are gonna be okay xoxo
from mjraven87 :
Prozac never helped me. Nothing they gave me lifted my spirits, they only made me ill and collapse when I came off them. Don't rely on them and certainly don't trust them - the doctors or the prozac. If they want to put you on something stronger don't let them force you as that probably wouldn't help either. This sounds like a really depressing post but all I am trying to do is give you my experience. Feel free to completely ignore it if you want as it's up to you in the end. Take care and good luck in everything, Shell xxx
from hindthesmile :
hi. uh...well, i've never been through what you're going through, but i'm here if you want someone to talk to? ~hugs~ -lissie.
from punkonacloud :
Oh please be careful Claire. I am glad you watched that show. You really are hurting yourself. You've been incredibly lucky already, but it is true, you cant play around with something as serious as diabetes. I love you lots! ~ mel
from space-ranger :
I've been keeping up with your diary for a while now, I always wanted to leave a note but never knew what I'd write. I still don't know what to write. Let's just say I understand your eating disorder. I'm better now. A lot better. But I can relate. And I feel your pain. And my best friend, She does the same thing you do. She's not getting better. And it tears me apart to see her so fragile and weak. That's how I'm seeing you. Fragile and weak. You deserve to be happy and healthy. You deserve to wear a pretty summer dress. You need to stop killing yourself. Food is your way of comitting a slow and painful suicide. Who needs those pills you have as your back up plan when you can binge and purge yourself to death? I wish I could cure you. Make you happy in some way. Make you forget about food, but I can't. You are SUPER skinny. You are NOT fat. I saw your notes page. You have SO MANY people who worry about you and care. You're a fantastic writer. And be careful with the prozac. When I used it, it all got better for a few weeks, and then I got more depressed than I was in the first place. <3333 [tina]
from sad-doll :
<3 i love you doll.

from lostunicorn :
*love you* Sending hugs. I know you said you couldn't deal with seeing people but if you ever need to run away from it all I'm here. I would love to meet you and give you a well needed hug xxxxxxxxxxxxx
from punkonacloud :
Im thought yo needed a hug to help you today.... so I am sending one across the ocean and continent telepathically. there are lots of us who love and care about you. You are SO FAR FROM USELESS!!!!! ((((((hug))))))
from rapethismind :
Be careful on the ProZac. It messed me up. It's not common, but it can happen. I didn't have any lows, but I didn't have any highs, so it put me in a completely different kind of depression that was really dangerous for me. (I stopped eating subconsciously, but I was so numb from the medication that, consciously, I had no idea I wasn't eating.) Just...be careful. It's not common, but it can happen.

mm, you make me wish i could be your lightning bolt. love.xox
from punkonacloud :
hi Claire. I have been worrying about you for a while because of your dropping weight and depression. I am really hopeful now that I hear that you have been prescribed prozac. I am still bulimic, but not half as depresed as I used to be. Medication has helped me lead a functional life and I hpe it will help you too. Please look after yourself in the meantime and know that I love you and worry about you. MWAH!!!!

I want you to get better. I don't know you, but I've been reading your diary for a while know and I care about you. *hugs* I really do hope one day you get the courage to stand up and tell someone with force that you need help. But the fact that you realize it is a huge step. Blessed be.

there is more to life than this. one day you will find it. just hang in and scream out for help if need be. they will listen, just make yourself be heard. your in my thoughts and heart. xo sharla

oh Beautiful;; i really understand [exactly] how you feel;; i honestly wish i could help you in ANY way [big or small] but i dont even know where to start;; *!*angel*!*
from supergirl7 :
Wow i know what you mean not being able to tell others that you don't have the energy to have a night out. Or that you aren't going to a resturant to hang becouse the mere thought of it sends panic corsing throughout your body. It's really a sucky deal. What the things we do to ourselve...we can't help it. We are after all, very sick people. But still...oh i'm not to sure where i'm going with this. Hang in there, everyday i wonder how you are doing. I hope the rest of the week is better.

I've always wondered. How tall are you? Seems like we are both falling down hill more and more. Really....is it worth to keep falling. Or, are we doing whats best. I wish i knew the future.

from david34 :
You probably will not like this note, but if you got worse and I hadn't said it, I'd feel like I wish I had offered. You may have trouble after eating being alone, with the pressure to throw up. You can always call me after you eat, and I'll pay the entire bill. You can call repeatedly and we can talk after you've eaten to relieve the pressure. You owe me nothing. Unconditional caring. Please think about it. You, of course, could call whether you had eaten or not, but it may be more needed at that time. Forgive me, I apologize if this note just irritates you. I felt a need to say it. I want the best for you, regardless of whether or not you respond.

from genuine-risk :
Hi my darling. Thank you so much for your sweet note. Each time I get one it warms my heart. I'm so trapped. Like I'm in a spider web. I don't know what to do, so I'm paralyzed. We DO have to try and make an effort. I think I am going to go on the very low-protein diet with heavy-duty amino acid supplements that are recommended by the author to save my kidneys. I have been cutting protein for protection, not as much as the book advocates, but it has been without any supplementation (not even a multi, because I was afraid the phosphorus wouldn't be good for the kidneys), and I'm malnourished, which is one reason I have been feeling so blank. First, I have to make an appointment with my dietician for planning. I'm scared. I need to get my act together. This meal plan (less than 20 g of protein a day, with supplementation) is a huge life change. But I won't let it turn into an anorexic disaster. I'm doing this for health. I think so much about giving this disorder up. It's on my mind constantly. But I'm too scared to do it. I don't know. I want you to try too. Will you try? How are you trying? Want to rejoin as moderation buddies?? Have you been tested for microalbuminuria? Do you know what the status of your kidney function is? My cholesterol is high (and I'm even a vegetarian) and I have a level of microalbumin, a sign of damage. So I have to take action. I REFUSE to ever go on dialysis. The book is by Mackensie Walser, MD. If you don't have any kidney disease then perhaps you don't need it....but maybe it will be a motivating force for you. It has been for me. Ok, ok, no more of that talk. The weather here has been STORMY! Driving back from vacation we were caught in the midst of horrible storms with tornado warnings. So bad that I covered my face with a pillow and cried! But I am a wimp. I came back to work again yesterday....and went to physical therapy with for my wrists...I've been paying bills, reading, watching Sex & the City (!), etc. I'm about to eat some dinner and take a walk. I miss you. I want you to try to. Tell me how you're going to. Love you. xoxoxo
from punkonacloud :
Oh Claire. I wish you could have what you need. I wish someone could come and make it better for you. I love you lots and think about you lots and worry about you lots. Just so you know, I also have lots of hope for you. You are too good and talented to go this way. Just hang on a little longer... this is not the end. Life is long and it WILL get better. Even if I have to meet you oneday and MAKE it. Lots of love ~mel

All the way along i have been creeping silently and pushing everyone out. I never imagined they would let me go so easily. I haven't let you go and I won't ever. Would you like me to phone you??? In fact I may try tonight if you feel up to it:) Love and hugs Cheryl x

Oh dear Claire. You haven't done anything to annoy me. I have just been sick and depressed and unable to type because of my carpal tunnel. :( I love you. I don't know what else to say.

from person26 :
Dear JF: You have an interesting journal. You are so honest in your openness. Let me tell you something. I think others have said similar things. Really, the only peace ive gotten over the last good many years has been from asking God for help. I prayed and had others praying for me. I'm not even the most devout person around. I am suspicious of people who claim supernatural things. I tried to pray as a little child relying on God and asking for help in my intense pain. I had the feeling from things that happened and things that strangers said to me that God was getting my attention, picking my mind and touching me in a personal way(s) enough times so intently and personal that even as a suspicious person, I concluded overwhelmingly that God was touching me personally. I had much relief for years, although I am back in the bad now. How quickly I turned to other things to hide in when in reality the main thing that worked was relying on God to help me and not other things. Through exhaustion, I have gradually given up the addictions that I relied on, simply because they do not work and bring emptiness and hopelessness, agony. I am scared and feel bad, but God was really the only one who knew how to get me out in very personal ways. The things that happened made me realize that God is really closer than He seemed before. Still, it is hard not to latch onto other things. I dont have "any" answers other than that one. "Carelessly" maybe said it better than I did, she has read your journal much longer than I have. Try to be like a little child needing help from God. Our ways lead to emptiness and hopelessness. Even the simple things in life meant to make me feel better bring emptiness when i think of them. Only the thought of God and relying on him give me peace of mind. The rest is a black hole in my hungry heart. You are important. That's why I wrote. bye
from morbidhippie :
oh miss beautiful claire, please don't apologise for making me sad. you've nothing to be sorry for...i wish you equally as much as what 'rainforme' said...it would be a pure treat to see you start getting better, as i imagine you know..i think you're lovely. your words touch me everytime, and i feel mass empathy for you even though i can't honestly relate to alot of what you're going through. i'll continue to hold hope for you miss claire, as i imagine countless others do. keep writing, Your words are beautiful..xox

I am trying to hide as I write this becasue your entry has made me cry and I am in a public place. I wish I could be there. You have described your pain so well... too well. Even I cant bare it. Oh please hang on. I love you and I am worried and scared for you. And I am so so sorry that you know that much main. I feel helpless. I wish I could make it better. I dont even know what to say, BUT PLEASE HANG ON!!! Love you lots... so much. mel.

mobidhippie mentioned you in her diary, so i came to have a look see and... i think you broke my heart. i was in tears over your entries and your photos because you are so incredibly beautiful and brave. i wish you a million gazillion moments with your cats, your books and your friends. everything that makes you happy. you have a gift with words and strength inside... let the strength shine. you are not just-fine, you are just-wonderful and i believe you can make it. take care of u. hugs.

*big hug* ..wish i could give you one for real. i wish you had someone near you who you could cry to, tell everything to. i wish you could tell you mum, and have her hug you. i wish the people who're in your life were more active about helping you rather than being in denial. god, it's so unfair that you are fighting this alone. you have us girls on dland, but you deserve so much more claire. it's not fair. xo

from lostunicorn :
On an unrelated topic how do I add my notes page to me diary? Also how can I change what the links are called on my page. I have some basic html knowledge but can't seem to make it work. Thanks honey x
from lostunicorn :
Your entry about why you are here touched me so much that words cannot describe it. Although you cannot see it you are a beautiful and intelligent girl and the world would loose an angel if you left. I know nothing I can say will make you believe this so i will say that everything happens for a reason. If you believe this you will stay strong. I don't know if you believe in a God or anything but I wanted to post this bible verse. I am not trying to push religion on you or anything like that but I wanted to give you something that has given me amazing courage and comfort: I John 4:10-12 "This is love: not that we loved God , but he loved us and sent his sonas an atoining sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends since God so loved us, we ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us". In essense your love and care for others is what makes you an angel x x x x x x x x x x
from genuine-risk :
I just wanted to add a few more "and's" to my note. And. And. Ha. Love you. xoxoxo
from genuine-risk :
I will believe in you as long as I know you Claire. I have seen the strength and and talent and love and vitality that is buried within you, and I KNOW you can make it. I care for you so much you sweet lovely girl. I miss you.
from limned :
i read your journal pretty consistently, and i'm going to butt into your like, k? you write in a way that gets right to the marrow of your soul, it's intense. you're alive because you have something to offer this world, and like everyone else part of it is your pain. don't forget to read poetry, there's so much that's been created from pain that's beautiful.
from wipethetears :
You are obviously still here, alive, for a reason. Who ever is up thier in the blue sky above us is helping you survive because you are to be something. I know you probably here this alot, but so many poeple care about you... they love you so much, the last thing they want you to do is suffer, but even worse die. Your scaring everyone surrounding you, even poeple reading you. I had a sister who was bulimic with anorexic tendencies, and it almost killed her. She fucked our family over so bad. Now look at me. I am suffering and wishing I was oblivious, due to the fact that she fucked our family up. You don't want to ruin others lives, trust me... You have a bigger effect on poeple than you think, and don't ever forget that. This is not a bitch note... I love reading you, sometimes you bring me to tears. I hope to God you survive.
from genuine-risk :
I'm sorry about locking it up. I unlocked it. I'm just afraid of everything right now. I miss you. What can I do to make you feel a little better? Send me your address. Do you still have my email? xoxoxo

I thought I'd leave you a message to tell you I'm thinking of you, and that I appreciate our friendship. I think you are truly beautiful and I'm sorry I never seem to let you know all of these things enough. xxxooo
from kmarie420 :
Sweet girl, I don't even know your name, but you mean so much to me. From the moment I read your diary, I knew that you were special. I know they're words that you've heard before, but you deserve to smile (for real!), to feel good in body and spirit, and to live the life that was meant for you...Anorexia and bulimia are lonely diseases. I've been lonely for almost 10 years. Never lose hope, for hope is what keeps us alive another day. Remember that there is a reason why you are still with us. Something wonderful is planned for your life, if you allow it to happen.... You are never alone... Kristina
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* I think you're amazing x x x
from punkonacloud :
You need a huge HUG and I wish I could be there to give it to you. Dont feel guily about the way you feel and think. You cant help it at the moment, and every person here can see how you are always trying. You are fighting a really brave battle against bulimia and depression, which are both DISEASES. You dont chose to be that way, so dont jusge yourself harshly because of the way you feel and think. As far as colleges go... perhaps not going to college this year is a good thing. It gives you some time and space to try and figure out what you want and need from life. It is a chance to try and regain some health. Then next year you can apply again and hopefully have more fun and do better than you would if you went now while you're trying to deal with everything else. Love you lots Claire... and I am keeping my eye on you always...

I am so sorry that you are feeling so low and down. It is a feeling that I can relate to a hundred percent. And the worst part is, you think it is never going to go away. It's like a heavy weight, heavier than you think you can bear. Sometimes I feel just like a black veil falls over me, and I'm never going to get out. When I try to tell my mom how I feel she never understands either and I end up just shutting up and hiding it all inside. I wish you would write some more poems. Maybe if you could put it all into words and get it down in that kind of format, that would help it go away. I am sad about Gwen but hopeful at the same time. I wish that you would have the same chance. I think of you often and I look forward to your posts. If I were not in Georgia I would give you a hug.

hello darling; i love your new layout... i caught myself up on your diary entries today, and am sorry things are not very happy for you. :-/ i hope you feel better, you are lovely. xoxo, katryn naomi
from kari92 :
I'm sorry you're feeling so down :( I really wish there was something I could do to help, or even to make you feel just a little better. Cling to the fact that things can get better - you can get better - and you won't feel like this forever. Take care...
from genuine-risk :
It pains me deeply to see your latest entry. What do you need from me honey? What can I do to help ease your sadness? I wish you lived in this country. How can I help you? You are so hard to get in touch with. Oh dear. I emailed you and PM'd you about Gwennie. Love you sweetie. You CAN pick back up. And if you do that you and Gwen can come stay with me and I will love you and we will be happy. xoxoxo.
from brokenmirror :
haha, oh sorry, that letter is a Swedish � (pronounced "o"), i must incidentally have pressed the wrong key on my keyboard :) I searched for it, its right over the img link you just changed. You can simply delete it, it has no function at all. If you ever want me to fix/ change/ whatever something, you know where to find me :) love you lots!!! =♥= Ria
from brokenmirror :
angelheart, I'm so glad you like the layout!! :) Though there seems to be a problem with your image, thats because I hadnt found a really reliable free image host but now i have!!! Just go to "change each entry", search for the "img" tag and replace the whole tag against "<*img src*=http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/v168/xbloodsportx/burn.bmp*> of course without the 3 * ;) lots of loves and hugs, you're so amazing and beautiful, I love you so =♥=
from genuine-risk :
I got excited when I read about you shopping for the new clothes. Don't be shy about being stylish. You are an artistic soul. I'm sorry, again, that you're having a hard time. Claire, what do you need to put the breaks on the purging? Do you see a therapist? Do you think you need to? You were doing well earlier- you wanted to be better for YOU. Where did that go? I know how hard it is to be in the middle- wanting to lose more and more, wanting to please others and be free of their scrutiny. It's so distressing. I'm worried about you. I know you can make it Claire. I am worried that you don't have the right kind of support. Oh hon. What do you think you would need to get better- even just a little bit better? xoxoxoxoxoxo thinking of you.
from cherry-girl :
Like the layout, though I can't see the picture. I added you to my LJ friends....mine is _blackeyedgirl_ Love you Claire.
from brokenmirror :
((my sweetest, this is just a flying visit I should be at class already. Did you receive my email with the attached file of your layout? I'll come back later this day to read your diary, I'm sorry for the shortness. Love you heaps and heaps, gorgeous =♥=))
from cherry-girl :
Waht's your livejournal, sweetie?
from genuine-risk :
Oh sweet Claire. I want to rescue us.

Hiya honey added you to my livejournal my name is madeofmagic x x x x
from supergirl7 :
Hey i was just wondering if i could be added to your list on your livejournal. I just got one of those. And i still have my diaryland one becouse i read yours as much as anorexics drink water. My addy is fairpoppet at livejournal. Take care
from genuine-risk :
Oh dearest Claire, no words you write to me would ever be meaningless, only precious. I feel like you and Gwen are my soul sisters. We are struggling together. My heart is there with you. xoxoxo Sarah
from mjraven87 :
Whatever I can do to help
from genuine-risk :
I wish I could be near and do kind things to make you smile. And I wish we could feel comfortable. Feel like we are ok. Like we could begin to heal. I wish we didn't hurt so much. I wish this wasn't happening to us. Claire I am thinking of you and every day I pray that you will find this easier, find your way to health. xoxox Sarah
from punkonacloud :
Hey Claire. I am so sorry to hear things are bad for you again. I love you always. I locked my diary ... well... suddenly I felt exposed and it scared me. My username and password is in my sig on tf. I would post it here, but my paranoia is intense and I dont want people I dont trust getting hold of it. Love you lots and lots and lots... mel
from shellbell212 :
I clasp on to your words every day. I don't know what I'd do without your diary. Although your pain is different than mine it still cuts the same flesh and hurts just as much. *I treasure you*--shell
from mjraven87 :
If I were there and I really knew you I would hug you and hug you. Don't know what else to say....
from zerodoll :
if you cant handle a real entry just leave a note so that we may know that you are still ok. just so i dont have to worry to much about you. you are in my thoughts. with all my love, sharla
from genuine-risk :
Oh honey, you are so sweet to me. Thank you for your kind kind note. It makes a world of difference to know that someone is there with you in this fight, doesn't it? I am with you too, Claire. I am sorry you're having a hard time. We are just a bit depressed at the moment! Dammit, I think we need some Spice Girls ;) What are you trying to do to get your sugars in check? I have ordered a new pump with this new calculator technology...you can read about it on minimed's website. Also I am trying to dose more effectively and not go so high. I miss you sweetie, haven't seen you around the boards much lately. We have got to set up a time to chat soon. xoxo, thinking of you.
from brokenmirror :
Yes angel, I found the pen, too, and thank you soo soo much for it!!!!!!!!! Its beautiful, so glittery and happy and magical, it absolutely made my day!!!! THANK YOUUU!!! I do think that burn2 fits your writing style, I've chosen the picture because I knew you would like it. THe size of the pic is fine? Or do you want it a little bigger? There wont be any adds at your diary, dont worry! Do you want me to send you the code for the template? I love you heaps and heaps, keep going angel!! =♥= Ria
from rainy-daze- :
I'm not sure :-s Please don't be paranoid [not that you can help it]. Grr, I always put my foot in it. I just erm, recognise you. Perhaps we've passed on the street. Hayley was in a hospital near Lancashire, if that means anything..? I dunnow, I've probably never even seen you. Don't worry. Thanks for the note, I'm honoured :) xx
from genuine-risk :
Hey sweets, how did Easter dinner go for you? How was your holiday? Mine was ok. I ended up purging part of my dessert...but I didn't want to throw up too much lest I take too long and other people became suspicious. I am thinking of you. xoxoxo
from rainy-daze- :
aah, Spice Girls rule. I looked at your photos. They are so sad :( But hey, you look so familiar. Don't mean to pry, but where were you in hospital? You don't need to tell me, you just look really familiar. *caring hugs*
from homerismygod :
PS i am quite obsessed with the spice girls too, i listened to them on the way to work today ;)
from genuine-risk :
Hey honey, thanks for your note. I am doing ok. My sugars have been pretty BAD- last night I had one that was 468, one of my highest ever. I don't know where that came from- I ate something and underestimated the carb content. Then this morning I was 62. :roll: My last A1C (about a month ago) was a 7.9. A few months before that it was an 8.0. Not so good considering I have been 6.9 within the last two years. I need to get my act together. I'm picking back up again today, I swear. Love you girl.
from floatnangel :
Oh God, ((for some reason)) i just NOW looked at you photos && you are [really] beautiful! && i cried because, i wish you could see what we all see..... but i know you cant =( *!*AngeL*!*
from homerismygod :
you are soso beautiful, and it makes me so depressed that you don't see it in yourself. and about the modeling- how is that a bigger accomplishment than your poems? anyone could be a model if they wanted to be, but only a few could write beautiful poems like you could. stay strong. xxx jasmin
from genuine-risk :
You GO to that movie sweetie! Keep smiling, and play that music as much as you need to. Hold on to these positive feelings. You are a beautiful young woman. I know that it won't change your perspective, but I wanted to say it anyway. Thinking of you, xoxo.
from genuine-risk :
It hurts me to see you feeling so sad. I wish we all lived closer to one another. I can't help feeling that we would be good at giving each other things we need. I would be crushed if you ever tried to take your life. PM me, email me, IM me, even call me (we probably can't afford that!) if you need to talk, ever. xoxoxo
from prosperpine :
Your words are beautiful, but the sentiment so sad...
from mjraven87 :
You're not the only one darlin. I never had much of a social life before but now I have even less of one. As for purging behind trees, I've done that too. Dignity doesn't even come into it does it? *sigh* Hope things work out for you I really do. Shell xxx
from sweetxtears :
aww sweetie i'm sure you'll get your life back. maybe you should consider telling the truth, let them help you. or if you cant do that set a goal of weight you thnk you could handle like maybe 100! you'd still be skinny and even more beautiful. and then you can just work out time and time to stay in shape. <3kaylin
from genuine-risk :
Oh Claire, of course you are going to feel distressed and a bit deceitful/on the defensive at such a stressful event- where you are being evaluated and measured and analyzed, and you know the result they want, they want you to be totally well. Well sometimes you can't be perfect and do everything at once. You can IF you are doing it for the benefit of others and not yourself. But this time any gains made toward health are for YOU. I don't believe that the feelings you had at that meeting mean that you will always have an eating disorder and be ill. Actually I think that is completely incorrect. If you can maintain that will and that hope then anything is possible for you Claire. I am thinking of you a lot. xoxoxoxoxo Sarah

You're not selfish *hugs* Shell xx

Hi sweets, thank you so much for the notes you left me. I am doing ok. The BG have actually been great since I left my job, although I am struggling with restriction impulses. I miss our little PM's, I'm sorry I haven't been online much lately. I am still so proud of you and I think of you every day. Want to chat online sometime soon? I hope your day today is beautiful. xoxo
from caged-mia :
I had braces for a few years until I was 17, and they did wonders for my self-esteem. I know they are uncomfortable, but they really will make your teeth look awesome in the end. take care caged-mia
from knock-first :
dont be sad- you seem really neat- I used to be like you, then I got sick of being a victim-when you decide that, you will be done. Now I have to scrape to come up with depressing things to write about. Hehe, at least you still have plenty of material.
from punkonacloud :
I was also a brace face once. I know how much they can hurt and how scary it is to get used to how you look with them, but I honestly think they are worth it. What braces did for my smile and as a result my self-esteem was worth every night and day of crying in pain. Hopefully they can act as a deterrant from purging as well. Love you lots~ Mel
from freaknuraw :
I was reading your diary. ( I got it from Gwennies diary). I'm Jori, and am very close to Gwen. I'm so sorry for everything that has happened. But just know that there are people out there who do care, and never give up. Take care, and be strong. Always, Jori
from the-thinline :
dear, braces really aren't so bad. after one becomes used to them they are really only a bit of a nuisance sometimes but that is all. i've had braces two years and finally am getting them off. they can do wonders for a self esteem. i wish you good goings on your appointment. they are scary as you already know. i'm keeping a prayer for you dear, take care, <love><me>
from mjraven87 :
Braces suck don't they? I had one top and bottom about 2 years ago. The one on the top was to pull all me teeth forward to fill in big gaps where teeth should have grown but didn't so I know how much it hurts. *hugs* take care darlin, Shell xxx
from punkonacloud :
Oh Claire, I really am sorry that this is such a difficult and painful process for you, but everytime I read and you are able to say something a little bit positive despite a bad day, I have hope. It really is a 3 steps forward, 2 steps back process though. I am glad today went better food wise, but I am sorry to hear you are starting to feel depressed. I wanted to tell you though, that this is going to be a vital stage. You are going to have to dig real deep, but this is where you have to be particularly determined. Dont give into the craving to hurt yourself and give into depression again. Aks questions, ask why. You said something vital feels missing, you need to try figure out what it is. Your self-harm is a way to hide from that emptiness and to ignore the real issue, but you need to know what the emptiness is. The craving to slip back into ed behaviour and depression rather than figure it out is what your next big step is going to be. So write. Think... do anything but binge. Surviving this stage and examining the reasons for your sadness and self-neglect is what will set you free to be happy and what you've always wanted. Good luck... I am always following your progree and holding thumbs. Lots and lots of love and admiration... ~Mel
from wolfstone :
i just read your entry; claire, i would give anything to help you, truly. i'm so worried about you, and no, worrying is not the only thing you make us do, you touch us as well. your entries are really moving, and claire, you are so beautiful, you really are. just that i'm so worried about you..take care, alright? *hugs*

*hugs* wish there was something I could do to help you hon. xxx
from brokenmirror :
OK, angel, we'll make it differently. This is what i wanted to say in the email :) There are a few pages that offer images like www.freeimages.co.uk, or www.gettyimages.com, or www.deviantart.com. You can always do a google image search by keywords. I also have a very good friend who's a photographer. You can find some of her pictures at www.kristentruax.com If you dont find what youve been looking for (but have an idea of what it should be like) just EMAIL HER!!!!!!!! She has tons of pictures, shes amazing, and she LOVES SHARING!!!!! Really, she does. Dont be afraid to bother her by requesting a pic, you dont, infact you make her happy!!! So DO ASK!!! I'll also post the link to the pics i wanted to send you, I've uploaded them to my webspace. Just copy and paste. I hope you'll like them or give you an idea. love always =♥=
from sapphire292 :
457. Over four hundred and fifty people are aware of your worth, screaming that you don't disappoint, you don't fail, you do matter. ... I'm sorry that you couldn't make it 3 days, after purging 6 times a day this week of no control has seemed a hell. Getting "better" for them means no motivation on my part, and I know as soon as their eyes are on someone else, I'll be heading down the same self-destructive spiral. Sorry to ramble at you. You are beautiful Claire, I wonder if we really could leave it all behind if we wanted? Much love. Here always.

from punkonacloud :
you have no reason to feel worthless. You are seriously doing so well. Bulimia is an addiction. It is going to be hard to overcome. Dont stop trying thought because it is possible. Frankly you are just making me so proud because you are trying. I am thinking of you often. :hug: I hope today is easier for you, and more than that, I hope you forgive yourself for today. Lots and lots of love~ Mel

hey. You don't know me. I love reading your diary...it's amazing and right now im crying because i want so much for you to make it through the next three days. You are the most beautiful writer and probably are an equally beautiful person. Know wut? I'm gonna try to do this with you...although i probably wont be successful. I truly believe you can do it tho. I'll be praying for you my dear.
from cheerbear623 :
i'm so horribly proud of you for not giving up even with minor setbacks. it's going to be really hard, but just remember that there are soooo many people here and elsewhere, myself included, who believe in you. keep up the good work, and best of luck.

Look at all these people who love you, care for you, feel you, wanna help you... Anyway, your latest entry is probably one of the most beautiful. The emotive language you use is spectacular, i am so jealous of your talents. Anyway, good luck, and look forward to reading your updaTE. I know you can do it sweetheart :)
from brokenmirror :
dear, I sent you an email with my newset ideas on your template, with links to photo galleries and 2 pictures that i thought you might like at your template. I have found a poem to add for the links and I have found a poem you published in your diary that you migth want for you moving text. Did you receive that email? If not I can send it to you again :) Love you heaps!! =♥=

Hey hun. My mum is exactly the same. The "I know your're dieting/restricting" etc when I'm sitting there infront of her eating something baffles me. To me normal is 2 meals, dieting is 1 meal, maybe less, and restricting is nothing but water.
from punkonacloud :
Claire I am so very very happy and so proud of you. I cant describe. I know this is and will continue to be hard for you. It is a long process, but you are so strong, and full of such amazing stuff I am sure you can do it. Watch out world! Love you LOTS!!!
from the-thinline :

from emadream :
Dear Claire, you dont know me but I'm emadream on TF. Ive been reading your diary for some time and you write amazingly well. Your entries are always so touching. You seem to be such a beautiful, caring person. You definitely don't deserve to be trapped with this ED. Pls get well. It will be okay, girl. You hang in there. *hugs*

from punkonacloud :
Oh Claire! I am so happy after reading that last entry. I still wish that you could see what a wonderful worthwhile person you are, and use that as your motivation to recover, but just to consider recovery, to give it a 'try' is making me so incredibly proud of you. I hope things go well. I am so glad you kept the soup down, small steps. I love you lots and lots and lots and lots and lots!!!!!!!!!

oh- no worries :) i rarely check my guestbook anyway as it is rarely signed so i did not recieve that messege until just now. but it is okay :) i will catch up with you later and i wish you the best <love><me>
from the-thinline :
i have been thinking of ideas for a template for you and when i think of what "fits" would be smoky colors.. soft, pretty but kind of sad. like a dusty rose or cobalt blue. i was wondering if you'd like images, if you had one in particular you would like me to build a template around, or if there was a certain theme you are interested in but i understand if you don't because i can't ever think of any for myself.. but any thoughts would be helpful and i'll make a few to give to you and you can choose what you'd like :) take care darling. <love><me>
from ponyluv :
when i read your diary, i just hold my breath. beautiful and touching words. another girl on another keyboard on the other side of the world who puts together sentences that make me hold my breath. and you suffer so much... it's not fair. you are a beautiful person and a talented writer who touches other people's lives. i wish i could fix everything for you. i believe in you. okay. bye bye <3

oh my god, I feel exactly the same as you about Holly and Jessica. I watched it last night too, and like you, cried my eyes out. It makes me so angry, so confused. It hurts me to know that such precious angels full with innocence are being murdered, assaulted, abused... the list is endless. Holly was such a beautiful child, the spitting image of her Dad. And Jessica too... two best friends, removed from the world. Why? And all Huntley gets is prison. What good will that do? Like Holly's mother said, perhaps he should be hanged. And slowly at that.

from carelessly :
this may mean anything to you. and i'm probably not the first person who has said this to you either. you are worth something. God made you worth something. God loves you. amongst the lies that live inside and the holes that consume i know you can't feel this love. that you can't find it in all the darkness that covers you. but i promise, it is there. this disease is a trap that was set for you. it is not your fault. none of this is your fault. i pray that as you read this, that you would look for God and find who he really is for yourself. because that is what he wants. he wants your heart to truly believe it. for him to give you the freedom you have to want to find him, to know him. i believe God has never been real to you because of how you view him. he is closer to you than you think. he is not far away. this is by no means some quick fix "because Jesus loves you everything will be all better right away." because the pain is there. it is tangible. felt every second of every day. i'm just saying looking for God might be your only hope, your last resort. He is there for you. no matter what you have done or the mess you think you have made. i've been reading your diary for a year now, i just come back every so often and catch up. i have grown to love you. to cry for you. to feel for you. to hate this disease for you. this is all i have that can help you. it may seem small, but to me it is everything i need. thank you for sharing your life with me.

Ah honey, Don't give in. Don't drop anchor here. This dieases is just trying to fuck you over. But you are so much more then that. Better then that. Don't you dare give up. Talk about what hurts.

i was reading Mel's diary.. her entry about how she wishes she could help you, because you truly desrve it. and as an example of how many people care aboutyou, she suggest you search how many people link to your diary.

Claire, never feel like you are bothering me. I would be so sad if I didn't hear from you. I always look forward to messages from you. :) I never got the e-mail :( Hopefully I will though. My sugars were under control for a while. In fact, I had the best sugars in the clinic. I never let my mom give me an injection though. And I have had some very severe hypos as well, in the 20s. I think that is in the ones. I should have been comatose, but I wasn't. I never started skipping insulin until I decided I didn't deserve it and could lose weight by it...etc. My brother was so jealous of all the attention I got too, but it was awful. I was punished for high numbers, and put on a protein low calorie diet at age 10. I hated it, and became malnourished to the point where I had to go live with my aunt to go to the hospital up in San Fransisco. Things got better, but then my ed kicked in full force. Sigh. We have to meet Claire. We will. Do you ever turn on your instant messenger? I love you sweetie. Please take care. xoxo Gwen
from thinmedown :
This is anawaif01. I am back with a new diary and I'm ready to loose...*sighs* It never ends.
from anainsight :
I wish I could tell you how much your poetry just blows me away. I used to write poetry but I am way too scared to post them. I can't even describe how much your poetry speaks to me. even though we are far away from each other I feel like I understand you perfectly, and yet I am very different. I hope you don't mind if I add you to my list of favorites. when your poem gets published I would love to read it. I send you a hug from way far away in Georgia.
from mjraven87 :
I wish I could say something a little less pathetic than *hugs* but thats all I want to do; hug you.
from sad-doll :
I love you Claire. ♥ Things will get better soon.
from mjraven87 :
I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to hug you forever xxx
from dimstar :
Claire, I am so worried for you. If I was there I would have given you a birthday present and thrown you a party. My mom says that we will sponsor you to come here if you would like. I talk about you all the time. Consider it anyway. I worry so much about you, and I care. (((hugs))) It may not be the best place, but at least we could work through this hellish eating disorder-diabetic stuff together. I love you sweetie. xoxo Gwen
from rainy-daze- :
If only I could hold you. If only I could ease your pain. If only I could wipe away your tears lined with sadness. If only....... loads and loads of love and hugs, -Rai
from brokenmirror :
sorry for messing up your notes setting :/ Dont worry about me, please!! My friend silver and i just decided to trade suicide notes I'm so very sorry for worrying you. love always =♥=
from brokenmirror :
HAPPY VERY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so very sorry i didnt congratulate earlier, but theres already something little on the way to you that i hope you'll enjoy. and also my angelheart: CONGRATULATION ON GETTING YOUR POEM PUBISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we've all always known that you have an incredibly awesome talent at writing!!!! Walk that way darling!!!! I love you heaps and heaps xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx =♥=
from dimstar :
I feel your pain and it breaks my heart. I wish I was there with you, or you were here with me. You always have a place here. Please Claire, take some insulin. I guarantee that if you take 30 units you will feel much better, and you need it so badly. I am praying for you. You are always in my thoughts. Desparation to help you runs through me, but it can only run to this keyboard, trying to say the right thing, do the right thing, make the right words appear on screen... And I love you too much to have you go blind, lose your eyesight, kidneys, limbs.... Or life. Please Claire... God, I wish I knew what to say. I love you sweetie. Take care. xoxo Gwen
from quantum87 :
did you just realize my diary is locked?
from mjraven87 :
"I can't find a middle area between still and sprinting. I need to learn to walk" yeah, me too xxx
from rainy-daze- :
you are such a talented writer. If I could do *anything* to save you, then I would. I've never met you, don't even know you, don't know much about you, yet I feel as though I know everything. I feel as though I should be helping you. I feel a sense of responsibility. Your latest entry is heartbreaking. If only I could help. xx
from dimstar :
But Claire, you must try to live. Because we are one and the same in everything, and if you go I go. I have been thinking like that lately as well, because it seems so scary, hanging between the lines of life and death, never knowing if you will make it through the night or go into a diabetic coma, or die... It seems like death would be easier than the fear, and it probably would. But someday I will meet you in person. And you will get better Claire. My mom keeps commenting on my weight loss, and it is harder and harder to get up. More and more soda cans sit next to my bed, a sign of how much worse things are getting. But we must make it... My mom says you can come here if you want/need, perhaphs on a student Visa? You could go into treatment here, or just come stay with me. I swear Claire. Please take care. At least a bit. xoxo Gwen PS- thank you for scanning the pictures :) Now I just have to figure out how to post them. Is there anything I can do for you? Let me know if there is. Anything...
from floaty-ana :
hey, ive just read your diary and you kinda remined me of myself when i was 16, i took an overdose, i thought suicide was the way out and that the world would be a better place without me in it, but the truth is it wouldnt be any different apart form the fact that my family would be sad. its not the answer trust me, and with a little help things will get better. they might not get much better but they improve... try to hold on and dont be afraid to ask for help, you seem a really sweet girl who's just got a hard life. just give it time xxx

i think that you are strong enough to make it through this. i know you will! look at what youve made it through already! i know that you staying around might hurt, but, it might hurt you not to. you really dont know what the future holds for you and i think you should stay around and find out.
from lostunicorn :
I think your a star Love Lostunicorn x x x
from david34 :
17 years old. Still quite young. I haven't forgotten that you exist. Remember Claire, you are more than an eating disorder. Your true value isnt determined by what others think of you or even what you think of yourself. I dont want to come across as goody goody, OK. If they've forgotten that you exist, well, Claire, they weren't your friends to begin with. I'll be here if you want to contact a true friend. I hope you have other true friends. Each tear is worth more than all the gold in Fort Knox, Kentucky, USA.

Happy Birthday sweetie. maybe this will be a new beginning for you. I know how much you want to get well, and i know how hard you are finding it to find a way of doing it. hang in there. the main thing is not to give up. every step back is a blip - keep your will to succeed and you will get there one day babe, xxx Mo xx

from dimstar :
Claire, this makes me so sad. But I am so glad that you are still here. I constantly worry and pray for you. Your dad reacted probably the same way my grandpa did on my 17th. I was on a pass from treatment, flew across the country to come home for my birthday, hadn't been home but one for a day in eight months, and all he could talk about was how he didn't pay to take everyone out on my birthday so I could eat a salad, and how come I didn't have more meat on me? So yes, I understand. And I love you so much Claire. It breaks my heart. You deserve better. I wish you could come live with me... I love you. xoxo Gwen

Don't say that Claire. Saying that you are losing will make you lose this battle. We are in this together. Don't give up. Please. I love you. I am here for you. I wish I could be there.... xoxo Gwen
from brokenhrtd86 :
Claire, I don't know if you remember, but last year you left me a note on my diary page. Ever since I've been reading what you write, and it really moves me how you are able to write so openly about what you're going through... I wish I could. I was forced to try nonchalance after I was found out... it never stopped me. I think you're fascinating, I really do. I just wanted to say hey.
from sweetxtears :
thx, i really hope life gets better for you and you win this struggle <3 <3
from andmia :
I just want to say that u are an amazing writer. I find you to be so interesting. I am sorry that the struggle is really hard right now, but hang in there. You have so many great things to offer!If you ever need support or just to talk--Im here for you! andrea
from sweetxtears :
added you as a favorite hope u dont mind
from supergirl7 :
I was wondering, if you could tell me how much a stone weighs. Like in kilograms or pounds. I've always have wondered that. Anyway. I love your diary, i read it every time you update. I love the passion that goes into your writing you say so many things that i wish i could say. I hope this new step in your life helps you. I wish the best in your recovery.
from dimstar :
Hey Sweetie, I think the shock feelings are due to dehydration and low potassium, and perhaphs a low bi carb, because I also got them as well, and still do, especially when my sugars are off the meter. I wish that I was there for you :( I am so worried, and I care so much. I do not know what I would do if I lost you. Take care. Just small steps... xoxo Gwen
from secretshame :
claire, on a scale of one to ten, ten being the highest, my level of worry for you is about a nine and a half. you seemed so insistent on getting better last week, but then again i know how hard it is to kick a "habit" so to speak. i have some really really bad habits in my life that i can never seem to kick no matter what my mood is. but someone once told me that you can't let go of one bad habit unless you replace it with another. (which if you think about it, sounds pretty smart) i'm so worried about you feeling those electric shocks in your head! that sounds awfully scary and sounds kind of like an emergency...please don't just let it keep happening, see a doctor. anyway, i propose to you that you take up smoking. i know, i know, smoking is addictive bla bla bla, but it's far less risky than bulimia and i can garuntee you that it is impossible to think about food after you smoke. i guess that's a stupid idea, but i don't want you to kill yourself with this bulimia because you are so beautiful (and you think you're ugly?!) you could be a model anyday claire. and you can go to university! you have your whole life ahead of you, you just have to want it enough. hope you're okay, xoxoxoxoxo gem
from sweetxtears :
awww sweetie i have read a couple of your past entry's. you write so well i can realate to you on a certain level. you deserve so much more then life is giving you at this time. dont worry about the job, your still a wonderful person. i hope one day you belive that. <3<3kaylin
from writergrrl88 :
you deserve better than what life is giving you right now. i'm sure things will look up eventually, as long as you allow yourself the chance. don't give up and don't give in. i know you can beat this, and i know you can find a job that really will suit you. this was fate's way of saying this wasn't the job for you, it's not a reflection of you as a person.
from dimstar :
Claire, I am sure it wasn't you. There must have been so many applicants. You deserved the job so much though, and I am sorry. Please remember though, there was nothing deficient about you. (((hugs))) Don't take this out on yourself. It doesn't mean that you are fat and ugly. Claire, don't give up on recovery. Don't let this kill you. Fight it. I believe in you, and I so desperately want you to live. Start to try for recovery again right as you are reading this. Take 15 units of your short acting insulin, just to lower your acid blood levels. I love you Claire, and I believe in you. I will never give up on you, no matter what. Take care. xoxo Gwen
from rainy-daze- :
aaah noooo :( I am *so* gutted for you, I really am. You really deserved to get the job you wanted. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be. You never know, it could've been really poor working conditons? You might not've liked it. But I am so so sorry. I really hoped you'd get it. Don't let one rejection stop you though. Keep going. You have to. I've been turned down before, and, like you, I take it to heart. Keep searching, and I promise you'll get a job. Good luck, take care and lots of love. xxxxxxxx
from onecutabove :
Good luck on getting the job. I really hope everything turns out for you, in your social life as well as hopefully your eating disorder getting a little bit better. I'm happy to hear that you're going to try. That's all you can do, really. Sorry I took so long to get back to you, I just checked my notes. The username for my diary is ilove and the password is tf. Good luck with everything and I hope things continue to go well. Love you hun.

from smartchick89 :
Dear just-fine, Wow. I never knew a person............. never mind that. I mean I see you are going to through a lot of stuff right now. If you are fat or something, why try starving yourself. Why are you hurting yourself. I think I'm way to skinny. And no matter how much I eat I can't seem to gain weight. You remind me of a friend I have. She tried to kill herself because she thought no one loved her and she was ugly. I was so scared for her life. And I might not even know you but I would like to get to know you. If you feel the same way. You can just leave a message in my notes. Peace out. Smartchick89

from brokenbits :
:-(...... Heeey! I have been reading your diary on and off for a while, but more regularly recently. i see through your writing that you DO face tough thoughts and desisions, but all in all i really beleive you were getting stronger. Your illness is one which always has downs as well as ups. can you explain to the hosp that sometimes your thoughts are not ALWAYS reflective of your deeds? i remeber when i was at my most ill, the ana was the main thing in my head, but in the 'real world' i was trying really hard to fix it. this is what diaries are for!!! I hope you find a way to resolve this and that you can at least trust those closest of your online friends. i see you have many people who are SO there for you. i hope you find you cna let them in again one day as i see you get a lot of strength from their friendship. MO xx

from david34 :
Dear Claire: Let me introduce myself. I'm David. I live in North Carolina in the southeastern part of the United States. I know a lot about depression, too much. I've spent most of the last 12 years in deep depression and agony, 7 of the last 12 years, and almost all of the last 3 years. I'm easy to know. I'm NOT A fairweather friend. Despite my pains, I received so much positive love my first 11 years or so, so it comes easy for me to nurture. I have 17 cats. My email is [email protected] If you give me your email, I'll send some photos of me my girlfriend tonya and our houses and 17 cats. I'm about 94kg now but a few years ago I was about 60kg and the same height, a bit taller than average, and I was quite weak. I know about low self-estteem . Mine is so low now almost all the time, the agony I'm in, the oppressiveness of life. I will try to build you up in my letters, im here if you need to talk, I've written to your friend Hayley quite a bit. I'm glad you have her as a pal, because she knows your pain, at least more than most. I know what the word "friend" means, it means someone who is there for you. If you dont have a gold membership, let me know and I will purchase you one. I am kind and easy to know and you owe me nothing. It may take a day or two for me to get it sent off, but I'll get to it very soon. Don't let yourself die, please, remember you have to have accepted Christ as your savior before you die, or you'll go to HELL! i TELL you this as a friend, not to make you feel bad. Please try to survive for my sake if for no one else's . I dont know the full story behind your emotional pain, but I have read large parts of your diary today and I'm sorry to see your pain. I don't know your level of pain, but I know about my pain, which is intense almost all the time, emotional pain, and the rejection of others and society, especally when I was your age. I have Tonya to help carry my burden now, and I would like to help a bit with yours. You dont need to tell me where you live, but I want to plaster you with caring from across the ocean, to help sustain you a little to hopefully carry you over to a time where you will have at least SOME success over your emotional and physical problems. Write to me and read the words I write, the words that I hope to BURN INTO YOUR PSYCHE, TO LET YOU KNOW THAT YOU "A----R----E" WORTH MORE THAN SHIT! Read my notes if you will, you owe me notheing. love and best wishes and prayers, david p.s. HELL IS REAL, I DOUBT YOU WOULD PUT YOUR HAND IN A FIREPLACE, WOULD YOU?!!! AND THEN LEAVE IT THERE?!

i love you, claire.
from life4rent :
Please don't give up wanting to get better, i know this doesn't mean much, you don't even know who I am, but right now, I just had to say, don't give up wanting to get better, please.<3
from pinkwolf :
k. right this might not help in any way, and u might stick ur tongue out at me for being naive, but i do kinda know where u r coming from. i have been in hospital too, and the only way i ever found to cope with stuff like this is to look for the funny side. right, i know it might seem like there isnt one, but there ilwasy is. im not askin u to look at the happy side, cos there mostly isnt one. im pretty much better now, and i still have trouble finding the happy side, but there is always a funny side. i would find it for u if i could :( send u my love. xxxxxxxxxxxx lara.
from brook7 :
I'm new to this, and happened to stumble across your diary. What a stumble. I read over other people's notes and instantly saw that you have many people who care deeply about you. You are lucky to have them. I don't know if it is really my place to say...to say any of what I am saying, but having my own experience allows me to have true compassion. I do not know you, but you have nothing to apologize for. I too feel sorry when I feel like I am slipping...I feel like I am letting down the ones who care about me the most. I feel like I am weak for not working harder, it is nothing to apologize for. We all work through this at our own pace, and get lost and fall along the way. The path to where we want to go, whether it be recovery, or simply a better state of mind is not paved nor is it straight. Please write me back, I am eager to "talk"/email with you. I hope that you arn't offended or think I am butting in. To give you a brief sense of me: 20, female, junior in college, "brook" is NOT my name, and I struggle daily with my obsession over calories and weight. Please drop me a note if you are up for talking. take care, goodluck.(wowlongnote:)
from brokenmirror :
Oh sweetest, I'm so sorry :( I know that hospital isnt really a place where you can expect a lot of empathy cos all doctors I've met seem to be insensitive assholes but they really are just reducing you to machines. Please, dont feel sorry dear, dont do!!! We're all here to support you, no matter what happens, and no one expects you to be perfect. It'S so hard getting over this disorder, but i KNOW you will make it. maybe you can somehow manage to just reach a certain weight and then demand to be let home again? I just wish so bad that you're feeling ok, it isnt enough to be kept alive by food, you deserve to be HAPPY. Also I was pretty shocked that they put you on so many pills cos pills wont improve your situation AL ALL, and they had never been a topic for you, so what the hell,you know? I'm woried about you, angelheart!!!!!! I wich so much that you find a place where you can get better physically AND psychically :( I love you with all my soul, I'm constantly thinking of you!!!!! Keep going angel!!!! =♥= Ria

My dear Claire, you are not a failure. Recovery takes a very long time. I love you and I know you can get through this. I will never give up on you. xoxo Gwen

You made my day by reading your diary... I felt like... well I felt understanding... an unspoken yearning that I too feel. I now share it with more and more people... thank you for sharing, for being beautiful, and strong.
from insanegerbil :
didn't read your diary or anything,but wow..kick ass profile.we like (apparently) all the same stuff.but then,i like alotta stuff,so maybe its just a coincidence your profile has my favorite stuff on it.eh..anyways

hey! u sound ill darling! how does it work out with ur diabetes, i havent tested in about 3 yrs! my doctors dont know why i lost so much weight so quick because i never did the 3 monthly blood test, i said it must hav got lost in the post. however im not gonna do it anymore, id rather not eat because the consequences of not injecting are worse and i dont wanna get things like thrush!!! surely if ur not eating and not injecting u might as well inject coz ur only gonna loose weight if ur sugars r high, and they cant b if ur not eating right?
from cherry-girl :
Please get better dear. :/

from small-one :
oh my goodness. busted. well, atleast it wasn't your THERAPIST! and yes, i am speaking from experience...i was caught buying a grocery cart full of day-old cakes and ice cream once. it was horribly shaming, but i survived. as awful as you may feel, you can always use the excuse "i was picking some things up for my mum." best of luck. xo small-one

from small-one :
i was curious because i have experienced something called 'vasospasms,' and it FELT like a freakin' heart attack! i guess it sortof IS, but it happens when part(and part) of your heart isn't able to receive enough oxygen and actually about to die! scary stuff. i've had kidney failure and that is something you want to "watch" for...kidney/liver failure is bad bad news. besides, it would be a shame to go out like that! how are you lately? i mean, do you have physical symptoms, besides numbness in your extremeties? are you still very low wt? do you have wt. goals or have you well surpassed them? how does your family react to you? zillions of questions, sorry. i just haven't found many connections here and that's what i long for. gotta jet. be thin. xo small-one
from sad-doll :
Claire, you are so amazing, I mean just dazzling. I looked at your pictures, and you're tiny I'm so jealous, I wish I could be beautiful like you. I miss you tons, I hope you are okay and you don't feel as hopeless as me. ♥ Audrey

hey babe...i read a note about your having a heart attack, i'm curious about that. when? and what happened? and stuff like that;0) (and how tall are you anyway?) hope you're feeling better. xo, small-one

I feel so inadequate when someone so talented like you is in pain, I really hope things start to brighten up for you soon...xx

Thinking of you, and I hope you feel better. Wish there was something I could do for you. xoxox Kathy
from breakthemold :
lily got a note and was called "lovely". :-D heheh. . .did they put you in a psych. ward once they realized the e.d. attributed to your heart attack? i been in the psych. ward twice. . .ya meet very interesting people there sometimes. :-9 yeah, but everyone in my family (except my mom) has been hospitalized for some mental problem at least once. . .so, yeah, it's kinda tradition to be institutionalized in my family. hah!
from breakthemold :
fuck what the doctors think! just, fuck 'em. that's all i gotta say to you. you know who you are and what's true and what isn't, and that's all that matters.
from small-one :
if it's any consolation, ANY CONSOLATION AT ALL, someone else has been in your place. for me, that particular hospital just wasn't the "right" place...i sought out another and another and another, until i finally found that the change had to come from within my own walls...that *I* was the one in charge. and that if i couldn't agree with everything "this dr." or "that dr." said, i could atleast agree with some of it. it sounds like those people FLAT OUT BETRAYED YOU. i am forever sorry. people shouldn't treat other people that way, even if we are vulnerable and unsure. it's not okay and i am sorry for you. do not give up. xo small-one

I love your diary and the way you think. I have the same problems as you (purging) but two people could never share or express the same emotion. I guess you could sort of say that I enjoy escaping to your emotions instead of gripping on to mine. It's a way for me to let go. You are so awesome! xoxo
from breakthemold :
what's up with the hospital? i've recently just started reading your diary. omg, it's so cool you like geri halliwell! did she ever come out with a cd after "schitzophonic"? i love that cd! sylvia plath is my GODDESS, too! i haven't read any of virginia wolf, but she interests me. did you ever see "the hours"? i freaking loved it! i also saw the last note someone left mentioned you had a heart attack! you must be so strong! how old are you? was it on account of your e.d.? well, gotta go. keep writing! xoxox
from pleasediana :
wow, you've had a heart attack!? You're so young!

from dfallenangel :
i completely understand you not wanting to get better, because you feel it will ruin your creativity, i think it's the only thing that stops me from trying my hardest to get better, but by me not getting better i lost alot of people, the people who were trying to help me, they gave up on me, because i chose creativity over them and i want you to know whatever you choose i'm sure there are many of people me being one that will stick by you and support you! <3-Toni Marie

I hope things go well for you, you should go. I understand what you saying about not wanting to go anywhere or even talk to anyone, thing is you have to force yourself to occasionally, I went through a stage where I didn't leave the house for ages and then I couldn't leave the house. But go, if it doesn't do anything for you, then leave, if you can't leave, still I think it would be worth trying. At least you've got the support behind you. Love -Toni Marie

hi. god, how you remind me of...what's her name... MY*SELF, a few years ago. it's uncanny, it really is, right up to the "i just don't want to be rescued." well, of course you don't! you want to be able to do it on your own, right? (subsist, that is). i don't really have any corny advice to give you, but just that your adult life can be whatever you want it to be. as kids, we're screwed, we have no choice...but now, now we can pick-up and move far far away...or not! we can do anything we want! that's what i do; whatever the hell i feel like(plus, going to work, b/c of those dreaded bills...rent, electric, water, HOSPITAL BILLS!...how damned depressing...) anyhoo, people have been telling me this my entire life and i didn't quite get it until i lived it...perhaps you aren't in a position to start-over somewhere else, but let me tell you, it isn't so bad. be good...but not too good. xo

I love you Claire. I admire you so much. Your strength you don't think you have.... you are amazing.
from morbid-lover :
Don't cut. I know you probably hear that so very often. I haven't cut for a month, either. I wish that I could just tell you something, and you would obey. like "don't cut." "don't feel fat." "love yourself today and always." etc. But it just doesn't work that way. I weigh myself everyday, too, but it's to make sure that I'm gaining weight, because I'm working out, and gaining muscle mass. It's really helped me alot. Maybe it would do the same for you, I don't know. But when you're in a rut, you have to pull yourself out. No matter how hard it is, you'll feel so much happier once you do. ♥

your reason for being is you are stronger and smarter than this mia. And one day you will realize all the people who love and care about you need you to stay with us <3 Deja

I've been ana, mia, and SI for a long time...I don't cut myself anymore but the scars are always there to haunt you.

from crazywicked :
i know that this is suposed to send you an email when you get a new note, so i fugred id send it here so i wasnt just another worried person singing your guestbook. i have found that when you write something like cutting yourself, being abused, controlversial things, people react. they panic and write false words of comfort and concern. it annoys me to no end, but i also look for their words. i love the stly in which you write, and hope you contintue on with this diary. it helps me to vent, and it seems to help you too. i wish you the best of luck, and if you dont mind, i will continue reading your diary. if you ever need someone to lean on, please contact me. [email protected] http://crazywicked.diaryland.com i would love to help. ~kel
from sad-doll :
I was just looking through my old notes and guestbook entries, and I found some that you left me forever ago-- and they were so beautiful and gave me so much hope. I wish I could do the same, I'd give you a thousand comforting words but I'd end up carving them into my skin. I love you Claire-- I just wanted to say thank you and that you are beatiful. ♥ Audrey xoexoh

(a hard battle, I know. but one genuinely worth the effort.) take care.
from itescapesme :
hey.. today i felt really bad because i slipped back into my old habits. they are similar to the ones that you have. I've read your entire diary, it was like a force that was unstopable i couldn't stop reading it. Such truth and honesty. if i could have half of the truth you have i might keep myself sane. I hope you don't ever loose that honesty and the ability to put your thoughts on display. I added you to my aim buddylist i'd really like to talk to you sometime.
from toshchaya :
Claire--I am addicted to your diary, I read it and it makes my soul cry for you. Please, please be careful. Your feelings are so raw and screaming with pain...I wish that all the wounds are soothed...

from corpulent16 :
You are such a beuatifull writer!! <3 Kara
from toshchaya :
You put that so exquisitely!! I've tried so many times to explain to someone that I do not maintain an eating disorder for attention, but I can not pinpoint the reason. If I attempt it I get myself into a lame predicament where I feel like I am foolish for even trying to argue my point. This is the emotion and reasoning so perfectly phrased!
from suicidalwhim :
hey hun i know u didn't mean us, (lol what else has Hayley told you? :P) I wasn't sure what u meant, tis all. I'm so paranoid of homeophobes now I'm *out* Its odd. :-S sorry xxxxxxooooooooo hope you're alright Lub yoooooou xx

Hugs my dearest. What's really weird is that I have been VERY tempted to shoplift lately too. Bizarre. ED's and shoplifting MUST be interelated somehow. Wanted you to know that people do care, and I don't think you're selfish.

from beat-me :
randi loves you too
from beat-me :
binge, fast, purge it all out... sad little doll, stuck in the corner surrounded in food. you cannot decide what to eat, so you stuff it all in... run to the loo and expel it all out, dash back into your room, and find that you are in the same situation... i love you claire... kitti
from cherry-girl :
hmm i wonder when youll get it...i hope you do get it.
from dimstar :
Claire, I am so worried about you. Your weight has gotten so low, and you are very, very sick. I am afraid that you are going to have another heart attack or go into insulin shock. Please honey, call your docs. You really need to be seeing them right now, before it is too late. I care too much for anything to happen to you. xoxo Gwen
from go-ask-alyce :

from cherry-girl :
:D i hope you get my letter. love you too. xox
from suicidalwhim :
Please get well. I check your diary regularly now. I hope I can help sometime. I can't believe your mother did that. My mum told me she wished she was dead, so she didn't have to see me hurting. They are worst words in the world. You are a beautiful person. Don't let this destroy you. xo
from pixie-cutter :
you seem so sad. i'm so sorry that your feeling so unhappy. i remember the worst times for me, i remember all too well. your so beautiful claire, don't let this monster consume you. read your notes, we all love you and we all care. if you can't believe that you have to at least seek solace in that fact. take care and keep in touch, please. x
from delicategirl :
don't you dare let your mother blackmail you with her suicidal threats. You have an illness. You didn't buy it, bid for it on fucking e bay so don't blame yourself. You don't need to cut...just get yourself some help. Help doesn't mean you will gain weight it just means you may gain a greater or different perspective on yourself, your friends, your family and your situation. Please concider thisYou have a beautiful caring shineing open heart so please don't harm it or yourself because contrary to your beliefs you do deserve better than that and i assure you with a totally relaxed heart that you will arise from your cocoon a wonderous butterfly and while you are counting on your second chance you may very well be using your third.
from cherry-girl :

from junior89 :
I am okay. Still stuggling with my ed. I wish I could write about it in my diary, even though I know it'd never come out as beautifully as you write. Anytime I see on my d/l buddylist that you've written I smile because I luv reading how you write and about how you are. You are beautiful and I know since I have an ed you may never understand that nor see it...but you are a kind, great, and beautiful person...always keep that in your mind. xoxo <3
from freyalinx :
I know you've heard this, but I'm gonig to tell you again, you have a beautiful gift of speaking with words, I don't know how you feel, but I've been in situations similar. I just want you to know there is hope, and to just believe that one day everything will work out.
from poisonedtear :
I'm sorry your family don't understand and treat you with such ignorance. You know where I am. I love you.
from onyx-cherub :
i'm so sorry i haven't written to you in so long, darling. i've been away on vacation but now i'm home and i've manged to catch up with your entries. i wish i could tell you that your situation isn't dangerous. i wish i could reach through the screen and pull you out of this hell you've been subjected to, i wish i could give you a hug and heal all that is broken inside of you. reading your words makes me cry. i feel so useless like i can't help you through anything. i wish there was SOMETHING i could do that would make a difference for you because you mean so much to me. i'm here for you whenever you need me. i love you, claire.

I'm also getting really bad pains in my stomach and somtimes i can't even move they hurt so bad. But you should really just relax and try and get better.

ok first i want to say that i think your a wonderful to talk to and it is not that they hate you but they see the beauty that you do not see, they care about you and love you, so please know that. Now about the diabetic thing, you can go blind if you do not watch the insulin use, that is very imporant. But one thing that is worse than going blind is death or falling into an diabetic coma. If you do not take your insulin then you can become dizzy but if you tak to much then you can basiaclly OD and go into a coma, please do not let either happen, cause we have only talked for a short time but i already see your beauty through your words, so if not for you for everyone that cares about you. much luv and please take care. nick

from chilindrina :
I asked a friend of mine (she's a diabetic) what could happen if she stopped using insulin, and she said: "You'll only get dizzy and have low (or high, I can't remember) sugar on a short term period, BUT you'll eventually, on a long term, GO BLIND OR THEY'LL HAVE TO CUT YOU LEG or something." She said it. no me. and she didn't even know why I was asking. Be careful my girl.

from pixie-cutter :
:). i hope you don't mind me emailing, but i felt i had to. that was when i was k i guess, but now its all down hill again. i'm back purging and binging and not eating and harming and its all gone wrong. as for the bullying, i know how you feel. i was bullied, badly. i remember, how as my name is abigail, they used to call me flabbygail.. and they had this song about me... 'she's big she's round, she bounces on the ground.' yeah.. you can forgive, but never forget. x

sweetheart, i love you. your words touch me so deeply. they hit old scars and raw nerves in my soul. i've found myself crying many times while reading your diary. you are breathtaking. i can feel all of your pain. i know this is a rough time for you and the path ahead is going to be full of bumps and twists and turns, but you'll make it. i believe in you. you are beautiful, despite the pain you suffer on a daily basis. you're a cherub facing a wall of fire, but somehow, you'll make it through, despite the burn marks and heat you'll experience. i love you. xoxoxox

from darkeone :
Woo I want a magical flying cat, too. And btw, I've read The Virgin Suicides, and in my (admittedly worthless) opinion, your words are more touching and engaging. If you were a book you'd be glued to my hands, you know... Stay stong. H x

from onyx-cherub :
you're absolutely beautiful and i adore you.
from anapathy :
Thank you for your kind words in my diary. I read some of yours as well. I am so sorry about your mom's response. My eyes are full of tears, from the pain I felt from your words. It makes me sad that someone so young feels like I do... suffers like I do... I really can't speak for your mother, but as a mother, I have found that sometimes we react in ways that our children don't understand, that even hurt them. For most parents, its in no way intentional. I know that many times, with my children, its because I am afraid that my own sick thinking will make their problems worse... Don't know if thats the situation and I don't mean to ramble about myself but I wanted to let you know that your mother most likely loves you, but doesn't know how to respond, what you need. I am sending a years supply of hugs honey. XOXO Anap
from lovemetwice :
you're not alone. atall. sometimes. knowing that isn't enough. it'll never be gone. but you can control it. becuase YOU are that strong. if let yourself be. i know you can.
from cheerbear623 :
i'm so sorry bout your mother not being there for you, it doesn't mean she doesn't love you though. and even if she doesn't there are so many people who do. good luck with your doctor's appointment, i will be thinking of you. *hugs*
from lostunicorn :
Congratulations on making the doctors appointment. Will be thinking of you at 4:50. *hugs* x x
from poisonedtear :
Claire, I know you don't want to here this but you have to go to a hospital, it's gone past should now, you have to. If you don't go now you will die. I don't mean to sound harsh but I really don't want to lose you and I know that there a masses of others who don't want you to go as well. Ring or text whenever you're afraid or lonely, I'll always be here for you. Claire x
from loseurself :
claire, don't feel alone, you can talk to anyone, no one would turn their head away from you. you're too special to just slip away like this. you have to ask for help, otherwise you might now get it. please, just do what you think is right. you're a truly amazing person, people who you've never even met care about you more than you know, keep your head up <3 lauren

from weathernoise :
there is this quote from the fight club that i dont remember right now, but when i get home ill look it up and paste it for you hun... but it says something about how insomnia is not never being able to sleep, its never being able to wake up; how falling asleep is really just waking up from your dream... that Truth and Beauty are in sleep and dreams, not reality... or something. i thought of it when reading your entry today... take care hun, its not over till everythings okay... and if everything isnt okay, its not over.
from alysia :
aww. thanks for saying i am a beautiful person. i think you are great too. <3
from lostunicorn :

from blankstares9 :
oi, hey, i understand. and you're probably thinging "no, you don't so shut up." but i do. I have an eating disorder and my mom knows but wants to deny it. so i let her stay that way. i look in the mirror and hate what i see. I'm boney, but i'm the same instant i feel so huge. It's hard, but i'm getting through. So, i'm praying for ya. You can stop cutting too. It's all up to you, and what you want. Well, i'm out. Hope you find your happiness. As i hope i find mine. Later days ,Annie

from loribear :
I just randomly came to your diary, and I started reading your notes... I haven't even read any entries... I can't believe you want to get down to 90 pounds. I'm guessing that you have an ED... so do I. But I'm trying to recover from mine for my boyfriend. Anyway. I just wanted to say hi. so... HI - Lori
from poisonedtear :
I'm glad you didn't get down to 90 pounds, in fact I was terrified that you'd make it. Even if you had got there you wouldn't have wanted to stay there, you'd still have wanted, needed, to lose more. You're perfect just as you are. Claire x
from dying-beauty :
hang in there.....life will get better...don't let anybody bring you down....

from mslola :
RE: 1/3 entery Word of advice. When people dump all over you and tear you into little pieces, it usually has more to do with them and not you. Yes, it hurts more when it comes from someone you love or least someone that ought to love you. Please, try not to let the stinging words get to you - don't hand over your power to what your mother said. It is more about what she is going through, not you. You cannot take responsibility for her baggage.
from mslola :
i was just in surrey yesterday. i drove through while spending the holiday in whistler. in case i haven't said it already, thanks for the thoughtful note. cheers!

Thanks for the e-mail. I respect you for your choice. The mask we put on in hopes that no one will know. That no one will know our deepest secret. Hey, I was just thinking. If you hate life now. Why not give the conseling a chance? If you don't like it or think nothings changed you can always go back to where you are now. Just a thought. I wrote you an e-mail. Please read it as soon as you can. =) I respect you even if you don't respect yourself.
from deadblckrose :
* big hug and a kiss on the cheek* I miss you when you don't update often.. love you.
from beat-me :
i just took pictures last night, i need to get the film developed, and then i need to hook up the scanner, and then figure out how to get my damned pictures on my page, then you can see me, and see my cuts, and stuff, fun, i love you doll... kitti
from namelessgirl :
oy.... seen your page before, some day or another. i remember it cause it had such a great layout. i can't say a cliche like 'i know what you are going through' or 'i've been there, hang on'. actually, i don't really know what to say.
from no1knows-ed :
Hey! yeah that was me. Sorry I thought I gave you my addy. Oops. It's [email protected] Hope to hear from you soon! ttyl
from hazelrain :
hey, i'm a cutter too so i know what you're going through... i hope it helps you because it helped me until some bitch at school saw the cuts and told the nurse... got me in some couseling. but i like your diary..
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* Autumn always makes me feel nostalgic
from deadblckrose :
As I am for you my love.
from typical-girl :
Thank you 4 being you!!! I swear I can say with a relaxed heart that you are one of those special people who has made me feel comfortable just being me. I never meant to make it seem like I was ingnoring you. I swear I wasn't. I will explain in my diary. I was hurting... and running. Everywhere and nowhere. You are such a beautiful shining person. A beacon in my life anyway.
from brainwashed3 :
i love you too, babe, **screams at self... NO MORE** not to you, to me, well stay strong anyway, i love you girl
from mary-poppins :
It would be worthless to lecture yoo on binging, so I won't. Instead I'll just shut up and say how much I loved your diary. It's beautiful. -gina
from brainwashed3 :
come on, you want to stay strong right? you even said it in your last entry, the whole binging thing is expencive... please please stop, buliemia is not worth it, please, i dont want you to be so blind as to not see the hurt that you are setting upon yourself... i love you girlie... kitti
from xbrokenxstar :
thankyou.your honesty is beautiful-your writing shines.xx
from prettywaste :
Thank you so much for your support & your kind words - they mean a lot to me. ~ Christina
from deadblckrose :
Happy Halloween. Love.
from brainwashed3 :
i know how it feels, the movie playing over and over, and everyone is lined up to watch, but, they dont understand that the film star is tired out, they come to scare themselves, and think, "im glad that that isnt me in there" and dont realize, it is you, you are the one being hurt, you are the one, it is all a joke to them, not to you... stay good, be strong, you can make it... kitti
from thisisjohn :
your writing is "just-fine". (ha, im a dork)
from brainwashed3 :
i get it all, it is all worth the time, and even though they think nothing of you, well, when everyone has left, you are the last to be called, you still watch over them, you still care for them, even though, they have grown from you, you are still on them, i am here for you too, i will always be, i am your kitti, just-fine, you may say that, i may say that, we are not, you and i, are not just fine, we may say that to hide the tears, to hide the gashes, to hide the inner us, but no, if you read between the lines, you will soon be able to tell that, there is not one thing that is just fine, i love you, my heart will be with you through it all... kitti
from sb1rustybg :
Your diary entires are so tantalizing. They just grab me and i wnat to keep reading all day long... Keep writing, keep being honest. You have no idea how many people you are connecting with, how many people you are helping by being honest and admitting your fears. I admire you.
from anti-all :
i read. i'll be comming back to read more. hope you are having a good day. =)
from jadedmist :
I would love to do the same to myself. I wish I could think of something clever to say to take away your torment, but the truth of the matter is that I feel the same. So maybe we can just help eachother through the darkness.
from retard-grrl :
i just read your entry "silent". the words you wrote make so much fucking sense & saddly i can completely relate.
from girl101 :
hi.
from brokenwords- :
i love this.
from oweirdone :
Thanks for your message! I wanna jus add a few things to maybe argue my point a little. And what i wrote in my diary wasn't only about you...it was about quite a few people, i was just angry and upset at the same time, you know? Anyway, you should never think you deserve happiness, you were put on this earth to expierience life, not hate it! (you may think im like all god god god...but i aint, i dont believe in him, anyway!). All you gotta remember is that friends are always gonna be there for you no matter what...lying to them because you dont want them to feel hurt or anything isn't always the right thing to do...i mean if they were to find out and confront you it might be alittle to much pressure for you, i know it would for me. But i really do understand where your coming from and i would love to be a friend of yours if you let me? Heh, anyway, hope you have a nice morning/afternoon/evening and i hope to hear from you soon!
from raven72d :
The layout image you have is heartbreaking... And I find myself captivated by your writing...
from deadblckrose :
I have just gotten the courage to write you and tell you that I admire your writing. I get so sucked into your writing and I just never want to come out. Your long entries make me feel like I know who you are. And I can tell you now, I wouldn't turn you down. I'd be your friend. You may get that a lot, but I do honestly mean it. And I think, if you aren't, that you so go and get into kissmyfist diaryring. Because your writing is.. wow... Love. Erin.
from oweirdone :
I read your diary with tears in my eye's...and IMMA GUY!. I've never ever really cried over someone before in my life (cept when your young and jus cry for fun...well i did!) but i almost did with you because of the things you say you go through...i dont know you, yet i feel i care for you and everyone else goin through all these problems. I just wish i could help in some way and i'm sorry that i cant..
from xtornintwox :

from prettywaste :
thanks for stopping by. I read some of your entries - there amazing. Take Care - Christina.
from lostunicorn :
*hugs* Gives you a glass of water and a big warm blancket and tells you that it will be ok. Why not write your english presentation about embarressment then it won't matter if you go red. Take care Lostunicorn
from sb1rustybg :
Thanks for the message you left. My heart hurts while reading your diary entries... I keep thinking i'm reading my own diary, of a few months ago. I have come so far. The only advice i can give you (if you want it), is to keep surviving the way you are, until your life becomes unmanageable. Keep using the puking and starving and cutting for all that its worth. No one can 'make' you 'get better' until you decide to.
from lostunicorn :
Hiya honey, Would I be right in assuming that your in the UK somewhere? If so do not worry about coursework, they tell you it needs to be in december, it actually doesn't get posted till april 2003. How do I know, cos when I was doing mine I left 11 pieces until the end of March. Don't worry you will get it done. :) Moving on if you ever need someone to 'talk' too them my email address is [email protected] I visited my thearpist this week and have realised that I'm not ready to let go but that isn't a bad thing because at the moment this is keeping me alive. Take care Luv Cheryl x
from sb1rustybg :
I used to hate myself. I made myself puke and i exercised for hours just becuase i knew i wasn't good enough that i thought that i'd never be good enough. I wanted to reach that perfection though... Perfection was what i longed for. I wanted it more than anything. If anyone would even TRY to take away my bulimia, i blew up. It was MINE...it was MY secret, it was MINE, the only thing i had. What i didn't realize though, was that i had a disease. A disease that could not be 'won' by willpower. I would either die if i kept doing what i was doing, or i would live if i chose recovery. This may not be your time yet...i mean, maybe your eating disorder and the cutting and all that is still working for you..maybe its still giving you what you want from it. I'm not going to tell you that you need to stop. But if it ever stops working for you.... There is hope of escaping. I have found recovery, and, if there comes a timew hen you want it, you can find it too.
from purplelagoon :
I'll always be here for you. stay beautiful. Claire... x
from deadblckrose :
That's what I figured.. I don't think your runied. You're still young... think of it that way. It may suck now, but maybe.. hopefully it'll get better. hugs.and.kisses.Erin.
from deadblckrose :
I have a question.. since I don't really know much about purging and whatnot.. when you throw up isn't their like remains from your vomit. Cuz the last time I pucked there was still vomit in the toilet after about 3 flushes.. I'm just curious. Much love. Erin.
from deadblckrose :
I want to hold you and kiss you all over...
from ed-is-dead :
I know there's probably not much that I can say, but I am at school with both isolatedsoul and sharpsecret and know more people with the same problems. So don't ever believe that you are alone in whatever you choose to do. Believe it or not, there are people out there who will accept you for who you are. I know I do. xxnick
from porcine :
Thanks for leaving me a note. I like your layout, as well. And I appreciate your writing. I can understand both viewpoints (you and your friends) on the hospital situation. Trickery isn't the way to go about it though. They should have just tried to talk to you about it. It's your choice, and it kinda rocks that no one can take that away from you.
from brokenmirror :
Love, I hope your alright? What has happened? Your last entry worried me a lot, not to mention the one before, I really really hope your OK?? Please please say a word!! Lots of love & I miss you xxxRia
from dramawhore :
love your diary hun :)
from supergirl06 :
i read your diary and i love it, i can tottlay relate. how did it go with your friends?
from sabgrffn :
Sorry, one last thing I forgot to say a second ago. I wasted 10 years of my life sitting here in my room 'cause it felt safe. I dropped out of high school (and only got my diploma last year), I've not gone to college, I've had 1.5 serious relationships with guys, I can't get a job now because I've only had one previously and I'm *27* years old. I've often wished I could go back in time and kick my younger self's ass, tell her to get some help before she just sat on 10 years of her life. So in lieu of being able to do that, let me just say... don't let this happen to yourself, if you can at all. --Sabine.
from sabgrffn :
Sorry to have been so long getting back to you. I am so glad you're feeling better, and hope that one day you get to a place where you want help. It's truly worth the effort, and I feel like one day you'll probably get tired of being down and unhappy all the time. Or that's what happened to me, anyway. I realized that I had a right to be happy, so I figured out what I had to do to get that way and went after it. Not that just taking a pill solves all my problems--far from it, in fact. But it gives me a better outlook on solving my problems, I feel. If you ever need to talk, my email is [email protected]; feel free. Hope you're alright, Sabine.
from sabgrffn :
I hate to be the kind of person who's dishing out unsolicited advice, but I feel a great need to do it, just this once. You can get mad or angry or whatever all you want, just listen to me. You need to find a therapist and get on an antidepressant. I'm not a doctor or anything, but you sound to me like you've got severe depression and anxiety. There are drugs that can help you get through these things, but you have to want to get well first. I've been living in the dark for about 10 years, until I finally realized that if I didn't do something, I was going to either waste my entire life hating myself and feeling like shit or I was going to kill myself. I want to do more than that. I want to be happy and I want to do things I enjoy. Paxil is helping me do that. I know I sound like a commercial and everything, but it really is worth it. Take care of yourself, Sabine
from art-esque41 :
*thanks for the note. i cant really put what i feel into words so its good to know some people understand. get as much help as you can and take care *
from brokenmirror :
Yesterday my friend asked me if eating didnt make me happy. I wonder how this should be possible, I wonder how I can et anything without worrying about my weight. Still my worst days are over, its not as extreme anymore as it was last year. My cutting episodes however are asgreat as ever before. Just minutes ago I wasa longing for a knife t refresh my scars and make me real and help me escape from all this, alhough I know I should find an other way - if there is one which I doubt. I dont think you can get along with life without cutting if you dont want to lose your dark side, and Im more afraid of becoming boring and light than of somebody seeing my cuts. Thanks for saying I could always talk, Id love to return that offer. You can email me anytime under [email protected]. Take care dear and dont hurt yourself, please xxxMiranda
from hungerbites :
Thanks for the note you left on my diary. I just read yours and well, about the laxatives - ouch, they're really not good... however, people don't bat an eyelid when you buy them (at least not in England). Anyway, no ones ever commented or anything whenever I buy them so I don't think you've got anything to worry about there - just be careful if you do take them! Best wishes - Hungerbites.
