Okay, fellow readers, I want you all to read this-
I am a survivor of anorexia- I have been down that hard road and back, and let me tell you- your weight isnt everything- sure, you wanna be skinny and blah blah blah- but, its not worth it-
you are just hurting your body, youre hurting your mind as well as your heart, not to mention the people I love you- its not all about you, ya know, you involve others with your actions- people care about you, and once you start destructive behavior, you drag them into it-
for some reason or another, our society has a demented view of what women "should be"- I say f**k it all- everyone is different, and everyone is beautiful in their own way- no, thats not bull either- its true-
listne, and listen close- until you can love yourself for who you are, you will never get pas these eating problems- this coming from someone whom knows, who has been there and done that- trust me, I have- and it sure as hell wasnt easy- but, if you stop now while you can, you can save yourself..................Please, take these words to heart and listen to me- you are worth it- what you weigh is not everything-

if anyone would care to talk to me, I am here............

So true - an eating disorder is just a b*tch who won't shut up.
