Poetry by Jodi

I have been battling an eating disorder for 20 years. Unable to tell anyone about it because it has been my friend. I am slowly being able to face this disease and writing helps me to express how I feel and how much control it has over me. Now having daughters of my own, I want to set an honest example of body image but I am unable to until I deal with this myself. I fought a drug addiction now I have to fight an eating addiction.

I was sexually abused when I was 11 and I am now in my 30's and still have not healed from this pain. My life has been one addiction after another and for once in my life I am going to face my past so I can move on. I realize today there are sick people out there and I cant keep punishing myself for something I am not responsible for. Writing poetry helps me to get my thoughts out of my head and to express myself in a way that I would normally not. Thanks for letting me share.
