i didn't realize i was headed down the rabbit hole until i was already falling / it wasn't until i landed into the arms of MyFitnessPal and protein shakes that i knew something was wrong. (cc, 2022)

i don't remember when or how i learned that eating disorders bred infertility the way Ryan Murphy produces another tv series / but i remember how it felt when i found out / the cold dread that filled me like a glass of water on an empty stomach / the chill in my bones so heavy, i convinced myself i was full.

#MentalHealthMonday Let’s talk about that mean little voice inside. Not everyone has one, but I sure do. I named her Patrice. Yes, like How I Met Your Mother, Robin’s coworker Patrice. Mostly so that when she is being a self deprecating little monster who tells me that my arms (or legs or tummy) are too fat for that outfit I can reply with NOBODY ASKED YOU PATRICE. Over the years from therapy I have learned some coping techniques to not get self destructive again, but it’s a daily battle. The best tool I have learned recently is to give her rules. I have to eat. She can’t mess with that. I can’t throw up my food anymore, dental work costs A LOT of money. Does she bring up any valid statements? If so, take it with a grain of salt and brainstorm positive ways to overcome it. If not, girl bye. I know it’s not a lot, but these are the steps I have taken the past 4 years of recovery. Yeah, 4 years and still a daily battle. Give Him/Her/Them a name, and know your NOT alone. • • • • • • #candiedcurves #celebratemysize #curvywomen #curvygirlsvip #iamsexysize #plusmodelmag #boldandcurvy #plusandproud #bigandblunt #effyourbeautystandards #bodypositive #fullfigured #iamperfect #beautybeyondsize #curvyfashion #nowrongwaytobeawoman #loveyourbody #womenstyle #edrecovery #neda #nedawareness

I am not a science project. I was not made to be viewed and I hate the fact that I feel like I am on constant display, asked to answer for a body I did not choose but love all the while.

Posted this on the rest of my socials so why not put it on here too... Ignore the don’t usually share it on here lol

My experience with anorexia and mental illness in general is something I don’t usually share on here. But more awareness needs to be spread. So, for the sake of NEDA week a couple of thoughts: • Diet culture is dangerous. • Eating disorders don’t discriminate based on size or shape or anything. They’re probably more common than you know. Be mindful of others — you don’t know what they’re going through. • Recovery is possible and worth it. I can’t say I’m there, but I want to be. More information and resources in my story!💚💙
