Countries that aren't so hasty and truly value help, honesty and such qualities?

Hi everyone,hopefully the title of this post is understandable, lol. Nevertheless, I'll try to put it more clearly. This thought has occured to me now and again, but now even more since experiencing distress at my internship (apparently many workers there are complaining that I am too slow). I have every bit of good will and motivation, but I can't help the fact that I am "slower" than other people (that has to do with my autism).After a long and emotional (but yet understanding and supportive)…See More

Profile Information

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.
- Vegan since August 2004; 811-LFRV since 12 May 2012

- Suffered from compulsive overeating from childhood until 14 years old (2001) and suffered from anorexia for 11 years. I lost my period as soon as I began losing weight with 14, became amenorrhea, and developed dangerously low bone density. Thus I continued to undereat until I found 30BaD, decided enough was enough, wanted to give myself the best health possible and wanted to LIVE and THRIVE and as a result I became 100 % LFRV since 12 May 2012.

- I am very grateful for many people here, for what I learn, and the support that I become here.

- Even when I struggle with my complex-issues, I can't stress it enough: Focus on optimal health and supporting the animals, NOT on being a certain weight - ditch the scales people!


-------------------------------

Hobbies/Interests:

30BaD (especially learning from Esperanza - The Raw Vegan Monkey), animals, my vegan lifestyle, optimal health (=HCLFRV), painting (watercolours), sculpting, drawing, reading, writing, researching random topics, my child-free lifestyle, onomastik, geography, languages (would like to learn Dutch), the Netherlands

Durianrider & Freelee started this site to bring together high carb, raw vegan lifestylists' across the Globe! 30bad is a high standard and high performance team! We're here to help you make our team! Let us know what HCRV assistance do you need?
I want to make the best of myself, learn to love myself more, reverse my bone density (build it up to where it should be), and when I improve myself in those points be able to help others here.

Until then, I'm open for all tips such as clip-on hair extensions or weavings because I'm obscessed with keeping my hair long, but it must be done in a 811-friendly way.

Today is my 1-year anniversary of being HCRV and clean from anorexia! :)

Posted on May 12, 2013 at 6:00pm 7 Comments

Hi fruity gang, :)

today is my 1-year anniversary of being HCRV and clean from anorexia! :)

I'm still on my journey to optimal health, especially regarding my bone density. Luckily I'll be hearing from a rehabilatation sport centre next week and the lady meant I'll be able to start in June at the very latest. I'm really looking forward to it, as I am convinced it will be complimentary to my lifestyle. My vegan vitamin D3 (from Nature's Plus) has been able to…
