Do you feed your dog regular dog food?

[MyOwnStickFigure]

OH no, that's like feeding kids fast food crap. He eats ALL raw, raw meat, produce, coconut, avocado, sea algeas, he eats like a king and is a HEALTHY and happy 95lb german shepherd.

I'll make an effort to educate those around me about Orthorexia. I have Anorexia, but there have been times I just couldn't eat something for just the reason it had so much sugar in it.

i love all the videos you have posted, wasn't sure which to comment. It's people like you that are helping people like me through the long, long, long recovery process of anorexia/bulimia, and i really wanna thank you for that. i believe that my ED has morphed into orthorexia- which there isn't enough awareness/information availiable for. Again, thanks for being such an inspiration x P.S. I know which wolf i'll be feeding :)

[jdpasino]

thank you so much for sharing that....i was wondering if maybe you could message me or something and we can talk about letting the voice come and actually hearing it because i've never thought of that before and it sounds interesting and possibly helpful...

[pumpuriukas]

Love your dog. thanks for those 3 vid, they are truly educationg, everybody needs to know. hugs for both of you :)

[PrettyxGirlsxSuffer]

I really wanted to hug you during part 2. Almost started crying, I know how you feel, I recognize the whole *convo*, not the same words, but the same meaning. I know how it is to listen to your ed, telling you that you'll end up dead if you dont listen, feeling the anxiety growing inside. Love the poem... we all need to stop listening to the ed's words, to think calm and logic thoughts. Your video's is a huge inspiration to stop living ed's hell & get back to life, I have to say: thank you.

[Pepperbomb]

Thankyou for saying that all ED's hurt. I hate that just because I am EDNOS people think I am not good enough to hurt.

[ChandlerrVictoria]

Don't worry, I don't think that.

I wish you well.

[Isabet]

I understand. I was diagnosed EDNOS, and people shrug it off, saying I'm not thin enough to worry about. Sometimes, I think they are right, but I still keep fighting. I hope you are still fighting, too.

[Carriesue81]

I was just reading thur your comments and I do really understand the approach u are attempting to make concerning how you mustn't anger towards them (the voices) but rather to really try to just listen to those voices. This is really good advice.

[insidethemusicbox11]

aww your dog is so cute!

i really like the story at the end :)

[MyOwnStickFigure]

dante says woof woof = thank you!

[Sentina83]

well I know that helped me during my ED recovery- I starded to hate my ED,and through time my "true" side prevailed.

I wish you all the best in the future, lots of inspiration for your art,lots of happy moments with oyur lovedones, and most of all victory upon these awful diseases,that roobes you from you,from your life.

(sorry for my bad english :)

See the ed is a part of me and the longer I hate the more I stray away from myself. If hating the ed worked for you then I am so happy to hear this for you! For me though, it's only gotten me sicker so I had to try another approach ... listen to the voices and mend these littl broken hearts with attention not hate --- and by attention i dont mean ed behaviors. I would love to discuss this privately

[Sentina83]

However there`s one thing that bothered me during your dialogue with your orhorexia/in order to recover It would make more sence to shout at disease and not being nice to it :)("Hey,orthorexia"...."thanks for speaking your mind"..."nice to have you here" )I think "your true,logical" side should at that point(when talking to orthorexia) start to shout at it ,..."F.u. orhotexia/anorexia/bulimia/ I don`t care what you have to say to me,you`ve messed with my mind& body long enough.

[MyOwnStickFigure]

No actually that is the absolute wrong approach. I've learned this in therapy. It causes this, inner child, the voice of orthorexia to rebel more due to rejection and neglection. I am learning to love myself as a whole and bring all parts together - then the need to rebel and abuse continues to dwindle.

[MyOwnStickFigure]

i think i will take a moment soon and make a video response/topic addressing this issue, thanks so much for the idea dear

[Sentina83]

Hey:) I like your videos very much, I think you`re amazing - you express yourself and your  disease very directly and honestly.

[MyOwnStickFigure]

thank you so much dear

[peppernme]

Good job on your final thoughts on this series. Can you send me a copy of that Two Wolves story? I'd like to really read it and understand for myself. Lots of hugs to you for getting through these videos without engaging in b/p behaviors. Proud, proud proud...

[MyOwnStickFigure]

Anything for you love!

[MyOwnStickFigure]

ahahah go see my new hello kitty tattoo, i address this issue. hell yes, it's all still up but it's time to take it down. it's dead but it was so pretty and peacock and pink!

[LucyShy]

Hmm, m' comment disappeared... DAH well. It was positive anyway, lol. "Just think positive".

I do need to address something though: is that your CHRISTMAS TREE still up?? LOL.

Thank GOD I'm not the only one!

[MyOwnStickFigure]

It's more like a "piece" or prose. Yahoo search "Two Wolves" and you will find it. I should hang it on my wall too, good idea.

[shav0nne]

Is that a published short story or poem. If so what is its title. I would love have it and frame it to hang on the wall. :)
