It frustrates me that we live in a world where people have to wait for treatment; that people are told ‘lose more weight and then you’ll qualify for treatment’; that there is so much stigma attached to eating disorders still and society thinks we do it for attention. Eating disorders kill. Eating disorders are a mental health illness. Recovery is more possible with early intervention. That’s my wish. To help every sufferer to recover. IT IS POSSIBLE.

Stop letting society dictate to you how you should look. I know so many amazing people whose potential is thwarted by society’s rules on appearance. Fuck the rules; create your own. Be who you are. Be all you are capable of doing. Throw away the scales; stop looking at calories; fight against your ED; be a RecoveryNinja just like me. I am recovered. I am happy. I am curvy and I like it! I can do whatever I put my mind to. I’m alive & I am so glad I survived.
