Taming the Inner Bully: A Guided Visualization. Content Warning.
Introduction The mind. Bully. Find somewhere comfortable where your body can feel supported. Whether it be sitting in a chair and lying on the bed or lying on the floor somewhere, you won't be disturbed. And it's important that you don't drive, cook, or use any machinery while you practice this mind bully visualization. And once you're in your quiet place, make yourself comfortable making sure your arms and legs are uncrossed and your head is comfortably supported. You might choose to close your eyes or simply look slightly downwards and let your eyes become unfocused. And now just notice your breathing. Take several normal slow breaths and notice what that feels like. And as thoughts and sounds enter your awareness, you can just notice them and let them pass without responding to them. Just let them come and let them go. That's okay. You will notice that your mind wanders. Thoughts come and go and that's okay, because it's just what our minds do. We can notice those thoughts, images, sensations and just let them pass on by as your mind lets them come so your mind can let them pass. Maybe like clouds drifting past as they go by. And each time thoughts, images or sensations come into your mind, just notice. And then quickly and gently bring your attention back to my voice and allow your mind to create its own helpful possibilities.

My Last Day
My diploma above will have close ups of staff signatures further down. Before Program: Today is my last day at partial for my eating disorder. I need to feel ready for not having it five days a week but I don't FEEL ready. Logically, I think I am. I know I have made a lot of progress but those negative thoughts keep telling me that I haven't changed as much as I think. Except.... I saw my chart. Completions are way better. Behaviors have decreased, at least my initial behaviors (binging and purging). There has been some symptoms swapping the last week and a half (restricting instead of binging and purging). I know I'm stopping the restrictions way faster than I did before program. Before it, I was restricting for nearly a day after a binge/purge episode. That was on average two to three times a week.
