Hello guys! :D I'm excited to share with you this blog I'm creating on my journey with an ED, especially since the forum and members have inspired me a lot. The main idea of the blog is to share tips and tools about what I did, different therapies I tried, meditation, yoga, EE, motivation tips, and I am adding articles published in SOTT about medication and it's risks, etc. Since it's also going to be my thesis project, it is in Spanish, but maybe some day I will translate the content into English too :)
But I wanted to ask you guys something, since I am not a doctor or specialist I'm a bit hesitant in for example, I don't know how to approach the diet topic. I've done some research as how keto diets or paleo have been helpful to other girls in overcoming ED's, but the last thing I want to do is put the idea of another diet into the mind of girls, I know this is not a diet but a better lifestyle that benefits our brains especially, but even for me it was hard to realize this and not look into it as a diet, I don't know if I explained myself clear.. So I have my doubts as to how write this, maybe putting out the information backed with medical research maybe? Or as all the other topics I'm talking about write my experience with this diet and how it helps?
I added the layout of the blog here, every menu has it's submenus, with different topics; science explains us: what is bulimia, what is an ED, how it affects our minds and bodies, etc., motivation: books I've been reading, inspirational quotes, testimonies, healthy mind healthy body; meditation, yoga, EE, types of therapies, relapses (here I will talk about relapses I've had and how this can help us too, I used to think of relapses as something awful but in many ways it has helped me to get my courage back and keep on going and the final menu is called towards a healthy lifestyle: food as medicine, mental and physical exercise, hobbies, etc.
Since it is a topic with a lot of things to put into consideration, I would very much appreciate any input you guys may have :D I plan to put it out at the end of the month so I can finish writing more content. Thank you for reading :)
