Dearest Kate, I am so sorry that you are experiencing night terrors again. And I so appreciate your fighting through the mire to share it with us. Hearing from you is a reminder that we are all struggling and that I am not alone. Though I wish you weren't suffering, it somehow eases mine. It reminds me to be kind to myself. Reading your post last night, I was in a tornado of self-loathing and pain that follows a binge. I decided to take a personal day today, instead of trying to fight through. I am going to take care of myself, go to swim at the community center, write, sleep and care for myself as I wish I could care for you. You fill me with compassion and I turn that love to myself, for once, to care for me like no one else does, and to live for today.
