Along the Road to Acceptance by Rebecca S Russell Wednesday, March 31, 2010 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan I've KNOWN for a long time that I have an eating disorder, but KNOWING and ACCEPTING are two different things. To begin the journey to wellness, one first knows. To recover, one accepts.

Acceptance that my eating Is out of control, That I do, indeed, Have an eating disorder Is written On a fragile piece of paper; But the rock of denial Is holding it down. Tonight I felt The rock shudder, Just a little. Will it roll away And free the paper Before I am Destroyed?
