Assignment 8: Alternatives

Assignment 7 was really personal and was about some family problems. So I decided to veto that assignment and move on to assignment 8.

This assignment is about coping skills and if I should be disciplined or not.

    • Pray
    • Journaling
    • Drawing

    • Complimenting others
I deserve to be disciplined because of what ED tells me. I don't deserve to be happy or nurture myself because I am not skinny, pretty, or perfect enough to be nurtured. I need to be punished for choosing such bad behaviors and for being a bad person, sister, friend, influence, and not being perfect. SH and ED keep me from nurturing myself because of the things they tell me. 

------------

Today I still think in some instances that I do need to be punished by myself. But I know I shouldn't because it would be giving in to my impulses. Although I have been struggling lately but I am doing by best to carry out those coping skills.
