*If you are struggling with an eating disorder, please seek help immediately.*

Hello.

My name is Kiki, I'm from Sweden and I am a recovering anorexic. I am happily married, two kids. My all time passion has been writing.

I wanted to tell my story about my seventeen year long struggle with disordered eating. 

It started when I was just fourteen,- I am now thirty-one and on my way to live a healthier life. I chose to write the story through Phoebe. She's her own, but i relate to her a lot. 

It is in no way to trigger anyone- it is only my intention to create more awareness, most people do not know what it feels like to be anorexic / bulimic. 

--ABOUT PHOEBE--

Phoebe Jessen is sixteen years old and lives in Stockholm, Sweden. Before her ED she was very happy, social and open person with a lot of friends. She lived with her single mother, Martha, and sometimes her older brother Jonah would pop in. 

Phoebe has always struggled with her weight, and even from a very young age she was introduced to dieting. As a kid, her mother was always working late, so most nights it was easy, delicious- but very unhealthy foods and that resulted in her weight-gain. 

Emotional eating was also a great part of it- as her father left her when she was just eight.- Bullied for her weight, and the comment from the dietitian was too much. She had to lose weight. And it had to be NOW.
