What's Happening to Blogger?

By Rubytuesday
I'm worriedBlogger seems to be falling apart Breaking down Coming apart at the seamsVery few of us are posting these daysAnd those that are posting are struggling massivelyEvery day it seems another person drops off the face of the blogosphere I remember a couple of years ago There was a thriving communityNowIt seems there are very few of us leftI hope the ones who left Have left for a better life That they don't need this community anymore Because they are getting on with their livesThe reality is some will have recoveredSome will be living somewhere between the disorder and recoveryAnd some won't recoverAnd will possibly die It's a stark reminder that this illness is not a fadOr a phase Or a diet It's a deadly mental illness that destroys lives If these ladies did go to find recoveryThen I am very glad I would rather have a quiet blogosphereThan a blogosphere full of very ill people I wish them every health and happinessAnd hope they find a life beyond EDChristmas is a tough timeWe need to stick together Support each other Look out for each other Our community is dwindling And we need to look after the ones who are left 
As for me I'm doing ok Slowly trying to claw back the ground I lost I'm still weighing which is a problemI know I do a lot better when I avoid the scalesFor a while thereThe only thing in the day I looked forward to was standing on the scales in the morningHow sad is that?Apologies for the short posts these days I don't want to go on and on about how I'm struggling I'm hoping that soon I will be back on track And back to myself Living my life Volunteering Going on dates Spending time with friendsAll that good stuff Thank you for staying with meI appreciate it more than you know
