What People Need to Realize

What people need to realize that you cannot fail at an eating disorder. Just because someone lost more weight, or purges more times per day, does not make their struggle greater than yours. Just different. The only way to “succeed” with an eating disorder is to take it with you to your grave, I don’t see that as success. Do you? If you do then obviously your struggle is great. Everyone who has an eating disorder deserves help and support. They do not discriminate, I hate hearing people say that they aren’t sick enough to warrant attention. An eating disorder is a mental illness not a diet gone wrong. You can beat this. You deserve to live an eating disorder free life. There is no failure in having an eating disorder, it isn’t possible.
