Grief is a part of healing

There is grief in the loss of safety in one’s body, the loss of agency and choice in one’s relationship to food, and the terror that internally manifests as those two violences combine. There is grief in the complexity of holding two things to be true at once, that we have been socialized into systems of oppression and that we long for liberation. 

there is so much wisdom and reclamation in your grief.

We recognize the pain of dissonance (a tension or clash resulting from the combination of two disharmonious or unsuitable elements). 

You are not wrong for your grief.

It is welcome here.
