#eatingdisorderawareness

REAL TALK: I wasn’t going to post this. To be honest, I still feel very self conscious and unsure about so many people seeing these photos…but this week is National Eating Disorders Awareness week, and if I can help even just one person, it’s a million times worth it❤️
I wouldn’t wish an eating disorder upon my worst enemy. It doesn’t just destroy the body, but it consumes the soul, leading you to wither away to nothingness. Losing all control over your life, your health, your mind.
Eating disorders make you lie, isolate yourself, break things, act irrationally and obsessively, hurt the people you love, hurt yourself.
It took me almost a decade of suffering to speak up about what i was going through, and even longer to truely admit I had a problem with food.
Admitting I had a problem was one of the hardest things I could possibly imagine. But it is nothing to be ashamed of. We are never ashamed of having a cut or a broken leg, so why should having a broken mind be any different?
If you are reading this, THIS IS A SIGN. Take that jump. Take a leap of faith. Reach out for help and accept all the help you can get. Recovery is painfully hard, tiring, scary, but I can tell you with all my heart, it’s so worth the fight
You don’t have to do this alone, and no matter how impossible it may seem right now, I can promise you with all my heart: if I can, you can too✨

Hey love bugs! I wrote a funny short film about depression and how to coexist with it. It’s been a rough few years after my diagnosis and I’m really proud of creating something that allows me to laugh at it. I want to do the same for others now.
Please vote for my film! The grand prize is to get the film fully produced, which would really be a dream come true.

With so many women (and men) affected by eating disorders, disordered eating, and unhealthy body image, I hope this will help you realize you’re not alone and things DO get better ☺️ link to this post “5 THINGS I WISH MY TEENAGE SELF KNEW ABOUT HEALTH” is in my bio.

As we head into a food-focused holiday that can be filled with emotional pitfalls, here’s a much-needed reminder: your worth is not defined by the number on the scale or on a clothing tag. Fat is not a bad word, it’s a neutral descriptor. And you deserve to enjoy food without punishing yourself for eating.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
I can still remember taking the tiniest pieces of food and being applauded for my “self control.” I can remember allowing myself to actually eat… because I knew I’d get rid of it directly after. I can still feel the sting of relatives commenting on my body as they watched me eat, and immediately losing my appetite due to the power their words had.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
If those comments don’t resonate with you, then you’re lucky. Even if these things don’t impact you personally, be an ally. Stop negative body talk as soon as it starts. Change the topic, let your family know they’re being rude when they comment on people’s body fluctuations. Stand up for those who get emotionally trod on.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Oh, and happy turkey day.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
