Recovering from a mental illness can be difficult without support and guidance. You have to have the clear mind to want yourself to get better and to succeed in a new healthy lifestyle. Having a recovery plan is the first step to a better living style. Your first step is to have a health mind and body. Seek help from a therapist or support group to go to, and talk about your daily emotions and how your everyday thoughts. Your mind will be clear of bad thoughts to give you more room to think positive. A healthy body is important too. If your new, positive mindset was once a bad body image mindset, start healthy eating. Create a health plan for you to follow in your recovery. Start going to the gym or taking time for yourself to go on walks or runs. This can be 2-4 days a week, or as necessary as you feel. The next thing to do in your recovery is to make sure you have a stable living environment. Live by yourself for peace and time to make that space your own or live with a supportive partner so you can have comfort from someone who cares. Along with a stable living environment, you have to have a purpose to your recovery. The main goal to recovery is to make you health again. Whether the purpose for recovery is for you family or your partner, the soul purpose is you. You will get the most benefits out of getting better and becoming a new version of yourself. Recovery is a challenge and can be succeeded with the correct, positive help around you.
