So real, so graphic, so immediate. It's immediacy makes eating disorder real to people like me who are ignorant about eating disorder, who are in fact unaware about the challenge posed by eating disorder.
“The unforgiving irony of the eating disorder is that whenever I try to create distance between my identity and the illness, it becomes more present in my
life. “ So real and wise and resonant. Grateful to read ❤️
"Recovery requires me to be active, and when I try to forget about the disorder, that’s when it slips back in." This is true for me, too, with PTSD / anxiety. Thank you for putting it so eloquently.
Love the way you said the story fell out of you. It happens with anything we try to hide. I had similar feelings before covid when I was out making friends and telling my story. It really prompts one to think about who they are in that introduction moment. Great read.

Thank you for sharing that. It's a challenging battle. I hope you're doing okay.
So superbly real. This will stick with me through the long weekend in the best way
