Stephanie's Ellen Project

 Hey beautiful people! My friend Stephanie Chard is an amazing advocate for survivors and have helped so many. She has a mission to appear on the Ellen Show and talk about these issues. She writes below about how you can help. Let us work together to start the conversation, erase the silence and let others know they are not alone!

"Hey everyone!
As I am sure you all remember, I started a project about a year ago to campaign to get Ellen DeGeneres to address the very important topic of sexual violence on her show. I’ve written in a few times during her 11th season asking her to do so and to help me spread awareness. I’ve even create a YouTube video for survivors and to ask Ellen to join the conversation. Well the Ellen Show is now back after the summer hiatus for season 12 and now it’s time to get those typing fingers going again! There are some great categories right now on Ellen’s website for writing into the show! Take a look at her website and if you see one you like, please take a few minutes to write in on behalf of my project and tell Ellen why you think it’s important to talk about sexual assault and why having a survivor like myself on the show could go a long way to help! I feel season 12 is our lucky season! Never forget that we have the power to change the world with the power of our voice. It’s time to band together and get this conversation going!

Stephanie Chard."

Taking back my life one lil step at a time

Happy Monday, you fearless readers! I had fallen into a deep depression, but I have clawed my way out and I'm ready to continue taking back my life one little step at a time! I'm choosing self care over self medication. And I'm focusing on my present and so positive relationship instead of the past. My abuser got my past but he does not get my present or future! I'm focusing more on all the positives and blessings in my life. I'm being fearless and choosing Joy! How about you? Are you with me?! Yes! Yes! The darkness doesn't last forever. I'm proof of it! Fearlessly and Joyfully, Katie💗💗💗💗

Psych appointment

So, I went to my medication doctor. Because of my PTSD and anxiety, we increased a med. And I know I can't blame this on my rpaist. Because it's MY decision, but if he hadn't hurt me I wouldn't be finding stupid ways to numb the pain. Not only am I depressed and have PTSD,  my anorexia has returned to help me turn off this... I don't even know. And have some control over my life... But who's controlling who? Even though I know I need to eat and get better, my mind is fighting it. Saying how am I going to deal with the crap when I can't numb it. I'm just tired. Does anyone want to take my hand and help me through this?  My best friend just walked out on me and I just need a friend. Someone to talk to, to laugh and just numb some of this crap. And she said the difference between wanting to lose a little weight and it being unhealthy (anorexia) is WHY I'm doing it.  And she wants me to go to my therapists' next group meetings o...

The number will never be enough.

I have realized on this hell-ish journey of what they call anorexia, that the number will never be enough. I've been starving myself off and on since about February. First it was to lose about 10 lbs that I gained while my thyroid was under active. I started eating better but just ate less. I finally got back to my normal weight. And I decided I was gonna go lower. Mostly because I hate my breasts. So, I started cutting back on calories. Counting them on an app and a tracker that counted how many calories I had burned. I'm really not much of an exerciser, so I mostly just restricted what I ate, between eating normal on weekends or when with friends. Didn't want them to catch on and wanted to still enjoy myself and not put my life is jeopardy. Well, I'm at about 10 lbs away from what I called my goal weight. And the last few days I really restricted so I can finally reach the goal. I've agonized over getting help and eating right and just a constant battle with my th...
