Example text
Ed’s existence relies heavily on the fact that you forget to separate from him (and forget everything else you learn in recovery as well). One of his greatest tactics is amnesia. So one of the basics of recovery for me was to remember to separate. ) While I was practicing separating myself from Ed, I still sometimes agreed with and obeyed him. This was actually progress in the beginning, because I at least was remembering to separate. A conversation sometimes went like this: Agreeing and Obeying E d: You can’t survive without me.
Yes, journals and meditations are helpful, but they will not take away the pain. Just as in other parts of recovery, you must walk through it. Before I tackled the food head-on, I looked to other people in recovery who were steps ahead of me for inspiration. I once received the following e-mail from Kayce, a member of my therapy group: I am still struggling with not liking anything I eat. Everything tastes horrible, but I am eating anyway. I’m doing what I am supposed to be doing with food, and it’s making me so tired.
People from across the globe have connected with the metaphor of Ed. And that is all this is—a metaphor. Of course, my eating disorder was never really a guy named Ed who followed me around night and day, but it sure felt like it. Ed stood for a collection of beliefs I had learned since I was born. Unlike other recovery models, I learned that Ed was not an aspect of my authentic self, so my goal was always to separate from him. Different recovery models and tools work better for different people.
