"It felt like I was stuck in a black and dark hole and I kept trying to haul my self out but kept falling back into it over and over again. But eventually there was a light and the hole opened up." "A constant fight against the mind and body that you'll never win ."
"I always felt hungry but something was telling me not to eat. I constantly felt like I wasn't good enough, it didn't matter how much weight I lost it wasn't enough."
"Its a living hell, that controls everything you do. You can't escape it not even when you go to sleep, its there 24/7 and no matter how much people try to help you, you are powerless to the eating disorder voice, it becomes you, it takes over your life, and your trapped, in a torturous turmoil that could ultimately kill you" "Like hell on earth.
Fighting with your worst enemy only to realise you are you're fighting yourself. Have you ever heard the comparison between an eating disorder and a life boat? "Imagine you're on a ship, there's a wreck and you fall into the water. It's cold, wet, stormy and terrifying. You have one life jacket. In the distance you hear someone calling to save you but in order to do so you have to let go of the life jacket. Anorexia is that life jacket. It is her safety and she's terrified to let it go"" "I couldn't think about anything but food, calories, weight, numbers. Nothing else mattered. I hated it and I hated myself. Recovery still to this day feels like losing a best friend." "Well, It's like you f***ing love food so much but eating is the worst thing you can do. You battle between eating the food because or beautiful, or the regret afterwards." If you're suffering with an eating disorder and are looking to get help click HERE.
