I was the happiest I had been in my life, finally done with therapy, actually able to be normal, and the best part; I was going away to Central Michigan University tomorrow.  I would make new friends, have many new stories to tell, and I would never want to head home. Well that's what everyone had told me at least. However, when I showed up to the dorm and met my roommate, I could have never foreseen the tragic future I had in store.

Flash forward to six months later, I was slowly losing my grasp on reality, anything besides sleep felt as though I was in a corpse, just experiencing the motions of life. My body had transformed from a solid 180 pound girl, to the pale shell of a person with whom I now had no introductions.

This is my true horror story of how the poor decisions of university officials have now destroyed my life, and left me as a damaged shell of a girl.
