Eatingdisorderrecovery Stories

She always wants what she's not allowed to have, and she always gets it. Addy's getting bored with the status quo. At school, she's a popular golden girl with a drop-dead gorgeous boyfriend. At home, she's an anorexic in quasi-recovery, struggling to push her feelings below the surface. On top of all that, she now has to deal with her boyfriend's cousin, Max, who has dedicated his time to annoying her, and who also happens to be very easy on the eyes. When Max begins to realise that Addy needs help, the lines between them are blurred. He drives Addy crazy in every way possible, and soon she's addicted to his touch and the fire she sees in his eyes. But Addy has sacrificed so much for control, including her relationship. If she keeps going with Max, she could lose it.

It's for everyone. Both those that have already tried recovery and those who are still fighting. I'm here to support. All of you, all of us. Because we all matter. I'm not a professional. Not a psychologist, psychiatrist. Just an ed survivor, writing from lived experience. Skip if you find these triggering - I completely understand. I believe that we all deserve support, and much better than the world that portrays serious diseases as "success stories" or "becoming healthier, prettier." We can do better. In short, this is a series about eating disorders and everything related to them: relapses, beginnings, the process, healing, society's influence, and recovery. I write about things that affect me as a person who has, and still is struggling with this little trap in her mind that says to give up. And that's why I'm creating this. We need something else besides the constant skinny obsession, don't we? Even if you decide not to read any of the chapters - I get it. If you don't agree with my point of view that I share in this project, that's alright. I'm not trying to convince anyone to my mind. I'm trying to let people with invisible, underrated struggles be heard, seen. And you're valid. You're enough. There're more of us. We are no longer silent. We're here for ourselves - that's already a big step toward healing. I'm not going to tell you that recovery is the same for everyone. I'm not going to tell you that people won't comment on your appearance. I'm not going to tell you that you'll always love yourself after recovery. But I am going to, at least try, to convince you that being alive is worth more than looking a certain way. You think feeling your bones is hot? You know what's more? BEING ALIVE. Healing is a process. And it's hard. But as long as you are alive, you always have a chance. I'm not one of the perfectly recovered ones. I see this trap. I've lived in it. I still do. But I'm not afraid of speaking about it - until someone finally hears me.

Bailey has just been released from eating disorder treatment and showed up at her aunt's house for their annual summer visit. The movie and manicure dates are a welcome tradition after Bailey's father has reminded her yet again why she trades Maryland for North Carolina any chance she gets, even right before leaving for college. This year, Bailey's trip is altered by Micah, Sawyer, Evan, and Chase, four boys who Aunt Kacey had to take in for the summer. When you add four teenage boys and a dozen cows to her trip, only one thing is certain: this will not be the summer Bailey anticipated.

By the time Agnes set off for college, grandmotherly name and all, she had pretty much recovered from the eating disorder that had tormented her in high school. She never expected to be sitting in the university counselor's office after an experience that would send her into her hardest relapse yet. **************************************************************************************************** Based on the experiences of a fresh college kid, navigating the challenges of college and balancing life in recovery from an eating disorder. Trigger Warning: talk about eating disorders, weight, mental illness, depression, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, and sexual harassment; real accounts of experiencing an eating disorder. I would say viewer discretion advised, but this story isn't a spoon full of sugar, it's a f*cking ice cream scoop of reality. **************************************************************************************************** NEDA (National Eating Disorder Association) Hotline: 800-931-2237 National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 1-800-273-8255

A quilted compilation of my many poems throughout the years, stitched together with love (and a few drops of glue). unraveled, imperfect, and probably out of order (but I suppose that's why its mine). . . . . . . **THE COVER ART IS MY ORIGINAL ARTWORK. DO NOT REPOST!**

"Boys don't get eating disorders." They would tell him, they thought he was just taking more pride in his appearance. He wasn't valid, an eating disorder was something only girls had, was what had been told to him throughout the years. Then why did he act this way? Why would he do this to himself? Mirai Park, the boy with the eating disorder, finds his safe haven in a world of control and self-hatred.
