Boys don't have eating disorders. Those are only for vain, teenage girls. Not for Alex. Alex Rivera doesn't know why he started counting calories or why he's addicted to stepping on the scale. He just knows it's what he needs to do. His parents don't understand, and neither does his twin brother - the hotshot player of the school. His little sister doesn't get it. His fucking pet lizard doesn't get it. None of them understand how, a family so happy and so healthy, could've festered this disorder. A disorder that's taken everything from Alex. As the heartbreaking secrets unfold and Alex's disorder is brought under the microscope, the Riveras must find a way to get by, even through the impossibility of Alex's eating disorder, a molestation charge, and the realization that pain isn't always clear-cut and obvious. Told through multiple point of views, The Way We Get By shines a light on the often ignored side of mental health and eating disorders, and it shows that with a little love, humor, and sacrifice, absolutely anything is possible. - - Highest Ranks: |#1| - ednos |#1| - disorder |#1| - mentalillness |#2| - eating |#3| - recovery

Andromache was intrigue. Intrigue of what it felt like. What it feels to be a normal high school student. She only had read it on some books and watch it on T.V. She got curious on it since it's quite interesting to her taste. So she enrolled on a prestigious school where no one knows who she really is. She plans to blend like normal average student. Not planning to associate with any student nor making friends. The plan is just to observed and blend. Yeah! that was the plan. The perfect plan. But how could she do that when on her first day she becomes the number one nemesis of the schools' queen bee Alexei Morgan King. I guess being normal and average is way too impossible for her. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Post Scritum Read at your own risk.
