by waking up inside   Jan 11, 2007


Just for your info, this is not my work this is my favorite song by Kelly Clarkson, and It describes my relationship with my disease even though its intened to be about a guy.hopefully this helps you to see how my inner battle with myself goes day in and day out... enjoy and be sure to read the comment I wrote abt this poem its very important especially to those of you who have jus started and eating disorder or those of you who are having serious thoughts abt "becoming" an anorexic. please take a couple minutes and read it, give me a chance to change your mind before its too late.
***************************************

It's like you're a drug
It's like you're a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stuck
It's like I'm running from you all the time

And I know I let you have all the power
It's like the only company I seek is misery all around

It's like you're a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me

And I know I let you have all the power
And I realize I'm never gonna quit you overtime

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interacting me
In my thoughts, in my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

It's like I'm lost
It's like I'm giving up slowly
It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me
Leave me alone
And I know these voices in my head are mine alone
And I know I'll never change my ways if I don't give you up now

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interacting me
In my thoughts, in my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

I'm hooked on you
I need a fix
I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it
Just one more time, then that's it
Just a little bit more to get me
through this

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interacting me
In my thoughts, in my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me...

    This is basicly showing I can't get away from my disease.. no matter what i do, im never going to quit, no matter how many times im in the hostpital or how ever many IVs and feeding tubes.. i can't let go, its in my thoughts in my dreams my obsession has taken over me. and shes been in control for so long now my close friends and family say I'm not even me anymore, Im not even a victem of a disease to anyone I'm just a label a "mia" or an "ana" I'm not looking for pity I'm trying to get it thru your heads that this is a DISEASE anyone who is bulimic or anorexic knows they don't want to be this way and I know every single one of them wishes they could concentrate on things like guys, fashion, and school instead of how far the scale has moved so far this week for most of us our lives have already spun outa control so fast we can't stop it, and for those of you who are just begining to spin get out now before you pick up speed and get help. its deadly and though you may enjoy that empty feeling in you stomache everynight when you lie in bed planning out your meal for the following day remember that soon all your organs can shut down completely any day and you'll have nothing to show for it but a weakend fragil body that wasn't stong enough to survive. please girls [and guys] think twice before you skip another meal.
