The Best Me I Can Be

[enbypug]

Hi all!

 

I've been dipping my toes into the rebellion for a while, but today I'm pledging myself to it. I know it's not going to be easy, but I also know that, with all of you cheering me on, I can definitely do this!

 

I'm a 20-year-old non-binary Women and Gender Studies student, currently living in Canada but originally from Britain. I enjoy video games (especially Pokemon and Animal Crossing), Tolkien and sign language, but my passion is learning about oppression and social justice.

 

I'm hoping to use the rebellion as a way to manage the symptoms my severe depression, and also to help me more effectively recover from my eating disorder. I've managed to get myself to a point where I believe I deserve recovery, so I'm seizing this chance to make a promise to myself to become my absolute best. It's gonna take a while, and I'm gonna be making baby steps, but I need to make those steps.

 

Right now, I'm just going for general fitness, I'm really hoping I'll find something that catches my eye. Right now, I'm not eating Paleo, but I want to get myself to a more stable position with my relationship with food before I start cutting things out of my diet - I know I'll use it as an excuse not to eat. But until then, I'm gonna try eating more fruits and veggies, and hopefully a little more meat.

 

I can't wait to meet you all! >^u^<
