Trapped Inside an Eating Disorder

This poem tells the true story of how I fell down a slippery slope into an imprisoning eating disorder. I developed this eating disorder three months ago and I am now currently in treatment for it. This eating disorder has taken away so much from me and I wish I could go back and change everything but sadly, I cannot. If you're experiencing any of the things that I am describing in this poem, please don't be afraid to speak up and tell somebody you trust. Eating disorders thrive in secrecy and the longer you hide it, the longer your held tight in it's grasp. Recovery is possible.
