How long have you been with an ED? Why do you think you started?
I've suffered from some sort of eating disorder since I was about 7 or 8. It started because, as a child, I was naturally extremely skinny. It was the one thing that set me apart from everyone else; People would always comment on it and, though I was young, I knew that I was considered lucky because being fat was/is undesirable in our society. But I realized that I had some fat. That’s obviously normal, but it wasn't good enough. I remember the exact moment I realized that I could pinch fat on my stomach, and from that moment on…
Being skinny was and is something I’m proud of because it’s all I have. It’s the only thing that makes me stand out. I don’t have pretty eyes or perfect hair or a good height. I’m just skinny and I hate it.
