Lorelai Swan could not care less.
She knew she was fucked the moment she was diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa and intense Depression at the ripe age of 12. She knew she was fucked the moment her own mother kicked her out because she didn't know how to handle her own daughter's mental illnesses. She knew she was fucked every time she saw her weight drop on the scale, despite it making her feel so good.
When her little sister, Bella Swan, moved back to Forks, Washington to live with her and her father, Lorelai thought it would be a good thing. She was so sure that she wasn't manipulating her own emotions to believe that something good could actually happen to her and her father. She was so sure that maybe the three could truly be happy together.
Now, what she wasn't so sure of was dealing with a coven of vampires, never mind maybe even developing feelings for one.
Yeah, Lorelai Swan was fucked.

I would also like to warn you all regarding the comments of this book. This book is a safe space to talk about these topics in the comments at your free will, whether it's to seriously talk about your darker thoughts or to joke about them. If you are more sensitive to topics such as mentions of weight or others' depressing thoughts, I would advise against reading through the comments of this book, or at least preparing yourself mentally for them.Not all of them are terrible, but I know it can be triggering for others, and it isn't something I can necessarily control as an author. This book is a safe space for many of you, and I don't want you to feel unsafe or feel like you can't open up. I simply just want to make this warning for those who might be triggered by these kinds of comments.
DISCLAIMER This story was inspired by the movie To The Bone. The first few chapters may seem like a copy of the film, but I promise it branches off and gets a lot better lmao. :')

i've republished and rewritten this story so many times. i'm really sorry for doing that. however, i feel that as an author, as well as someone who suffers from anorexia/depression, it's important that i write this character and her story the right way.
i've read far too many stories that romanticize eating disorders, as well as mental illnesses. if you feel that i'm doing a poor job of telling lorelai's story, please message me and let me know what i can do better.
if you feel similar to the way lorelai feels, please do not hesitate to message me. i promise that someday, things will get better.
