My Eating Disorder Story

This is the first time I’m addressing my eating disorder for my friends and family to see. I’ve been aware of its severity for a long time now, and even addressed it on Twitter and an invisible illness video on someone else’s channel (   • 25 people describe their invisible il...  ), but I was always careful to talk about it where no one I knew would see it. So, three years into my eating disorder, here it is: all my dirty laundry hung out for you to see.

After three years of disordered eating, I’m coming to terms with the fact that I need to recover before it’s too late. I could feel my body giving up over the past few weeks and I’m forever grateful to my loved ones for giving me the kick up the butt I needed to choose recovery.

If you’re struggling with an eating disorder, or even if you’re unsure, please reach out to someone. It can be a professional, a loved one, a stranger on the internet… Just please, don’t feel like you need to struggle alone. My DMs are always open on Twitter or Instagram.
