Dying on the Inside and Suffocating on the Outside

People often say that silence is golden. In certain cases, it is. But when someone is suffering from an eating disorder, silence can lead them down a dark and isolated path. A young woman named Skylar has found herself on this path. As she strives to find her guiding light, she is weighed down by worry and self-doubt. She reaches out to her mother for help, but her mother refuses and misery takes Skylar's hand instead. She finds herself losing her sense of direction in life, her last shred of happiness, her soul. But hope is not lost. Skylar seeks treatment and is rewarded with newfound family and friends. They are the first crucial step to her long recovery, and fill her with the determination she needs to reach her full potential. With newfound confidence, Skylar digs deep to find her true purpose in life.
