WARNING! This story is all about Anorexia Nervosa and what it is like, so if that is a trigger, do NOT read this!
This is a story about a young Camilia (a girl), who is struggling with Anorexia Nervosa and the normal problems with being a thirteen year old girl.
In desperate need to talk to someone, though she believes she has no one, she starts writing in a journal to her sister, Beth.
Beth was the one person she trusted with her whole heart and talked to about absolutely everything. That was before she died in a tragic car accident.
And remember that this ENTIRE story has one giant trigger warning: Eating disorder, starving!
Please don't comment things like, that's not what it's like when you have Anorexia, and all that stuff.
I myself am struggling with it so I am writing all of this from first hand experience.
Anyways, enjoy!
