anorexia coast dave disorder eating fiction franco idk teen washington west

I suck at summaries but: &quot;Trying to start over, especially when you don't want to, can be rather hard. Violet Dempsey would know. All she's known is dance, and a fast paced NYC life.. That is, until she's forced to move across the country to the small town of Pearwyn, Washington. This is where she meets Graham Bryant. He has the perfect life. Captain of the soccer team, the mayor's son, and student body president of Radley Academy. The two form an unlikely friendship, Violet learning Graham doesn't have everything, and Graham being able to see past Violet's façade. This is a story about saving yourself, because a wound can't really heal unless you open it. All it takes is a common interest, a little bit of sarcasm, and a whole lot of balancing.&quot;   © 2013 by heavenlywaytodie. All rights reserved.

and Rory was her name by diyulous

(not checked for SPAG) Aurora Montgomery, quiet and cold. Waiting for someone to help her out of her misery. No one came. After losing too many people in her lifetime, she becomes a person who's so worn down that no one could pick her up. She feels broken. She finds herself in senior year and while she's got an IQ of 145 and skills that could last her years if she were to list them all, it's still hard for her. Throw one snarky bad boy called Kingsley Nightingale, him being your fake partner and him being a dickhead to you into the mix, and what was supposed to be her life would be hell. But is it really hell? Because I'm pretty sure hell doesn't end up in real relationships. (This is a happy ending story though I feel as though 13 year old me did not think the name through!) (Set in 2018 (shes 18 in 2018) for the sake of your minds and my own, the maths needs to add up for me. If anything in my story is ahead of its time, don't correct me :))

Keep An Open Mind {Lynn Gunn} by Run-Dont-Walk

TW: this book may contain mentions of violence and of suicide. DISCLAIMER #1: I wrote this story when I was a teen and while some mental disorders are the focal point, they may not be accurate representations as I was far from being a psychologist. There are several things Lynn doesn't quite get about the world she lives in, which makes it harder for her to figure herself out. She is not your average teenager. She's young, intelligent, though something about her is off by now. Everyone is quick to misjudge and point fingers, everything and everyone is so corrupted that she's afraid she'll lose herself among a bunch of wandering, empty souls. Therapy can only help so much, depression is hard to die, and in Lynn's case it's caused solely by the fact she doesn't 'fit in'. She can't really find her place in the world. But there's something really special about her; Her dreams are haunted by a wonderful, mystical place. No one understands her, they think she's off her rocker, that she needs to cut her childish daydreams. But Lynn knows deep in her heart that place really exists, and she'll do anything to find it, with the help of some new found friends. There's only one thing she must do: Keep an open mind, it brings open hearts and open eyes. -- DISCLAIMER #2 This fanfiction is inspired to Mind Over Matter by Pvris and their lyrics in general. All you read here is fiction. every reference to real events or people is purely coincidental. I do not own the songs featured in the book.

Loved by Tate Langdon by youtubeislife143

Disclaimer: this story does not follow the plot line of Murder House. This was written in 2016 when I was 13 years old. I was depressed and going through an eating disorder. This story reflects on that. I wrote it as an outlet. Tate Langdon doesn't know how to love. He is a confused teenage boy. But, one day a girl his age moves to new York and happens to live next door to Tate. She changes his life. Little does Tate know.. he changed hers, too. Read to know all the things they go through together <3

Abigail by hmarieh1218

(In editing) She's depressed. She's anorexic. She's suicidal. She's insecure. Abigail has grown up with her three brothers and James, never meeting her parents, who abandoned her at birth. Her brothers were left to take care of her and keep a roof over their heads. Everyday they struggle to take care of Abigail, while working to keep them in their home. Life for them is hard. Life for Abigail is even harder. She has a dark mind and not by choice. Somewhere along the way she's developed these feelings of loneliness and hopelessness. Everyday is a struggle for her and just getting out of bed is a success. She meets Zach, a bad boy with a bad reputation. He starts off as a tutor, just to help her out, out of pity. But eventually feelings get involved and Abigail finds herself liking a boy for the first time in her life. Things get serious and she somehow learns about his drug dealing business. Everything gets hectic and Abigail doesn't know what to do with her life anymore. Or if she even wants to live.

Finally Free by lulustoriesss

"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes. I lean into him, our lips not even an inch apart. "Sophia we shouldn't..." He looks hesitant. "Please, I need you." I almost started crying. "Please." I mutter one more time, my eyes begging for him. My body needing him. Sophia Carrington. She just moved from New York to California in search of a new life. When her life took a dark turn she's forced to leave everything behind. She just wants to finish her final year of high school, numb to the world, while learning to cope with the trauma she's endured. Carter Marquez.
