Hi Thea
Well, first time I have admitted it, but I never wrote in my journal until I had been detoxed for 3 months. Luckily my brain just knew what to do, and I never had any problems, until later on. I lost too much weight, was getting a lot of bad attention on the street, from random strangers and other people I knew, because of the weight loss, and so I started messing with the food to try and stop losing. This is when the trouble started. I was journalling by this point though and thank God I was, I wouldn't have had a clue what was wrong and would have kept going round and round in circles forgetting what I had taken out and what I hadn't.
Things are fine now, but it took me a long time to get it straight after that. I love my journal now, and got out of the resistance by writing just everything that happened in my day in it, because I had always wished I had the staying power of writing a journal and was given them regularly as gifts at Christmas and kept to writing in it for maybe two days max.
I wouldn't recommend what I did, but I also wouldn't let it hold you back from feeling better. It will come with time, when the reason for your resistance will gradually disappear.
Love
Jane
