Freak
Years after the story became a classic, a girl named Alice finds her own Wonderland. She visits her dreamland when she feels the need to eat, and it convinces her not to. Her weight is dangerously low. She locks herself in her room every night and her parents are concerned. Alice thinks she's fine, what's wrong with having your very own world where you're completely happy? But when Alice gets stuck in wonderland, she begins to learn that being perfect isn't everything. The things she always believed were lies--beauty is within you, everybody's beautiful as they are, blah blah blah...--are starting to make sense to her. Alice wants to learn to love herself again, but "recovery" isn't always as easy saying yes to food again and pretending you're all better.Complete

Harmony in the psyche becomes the engine for future changes in the eating behavior of people with eating disorders and obesity.

Taylor's little sister, Elizabeth, is struggling with an eating disorder. Lizzie is 15 years old and Taylor is desperate to help her. Trigger warning: this story will contain topics related to eating disorders, depression, self harm, anxiety and mental health. However, I will try to avoid mentioning numbers related to weight or calories. This is actually based on my story, but of course there's fiction too.
