Thanks for sharing. I think plenty of people get into these situations. They are tough to recognize, and even harder to act upon. I respect your thought about recovery, its been almost a year since I left my scenario, I've had to learn slowly how to forgive myself for not being able to get back up to 110%. You'll get there at some point but all those years in a bad situation do take a toll, be patient with yourself and celebrate every step of progress. (like the .5 lbs I lost this week!)
