Still fighting

I am not done fighting, I will continue to try to beat my eating disorders, I’m not a quitter…I will not let the eating disorders win.

My Recovery Story :)

My psychologist assured me that we were working together in my recovery, which enabled me to feel empowered.

I started to believe my body was wrong and I needed to change it to be worthy

In high school, Sarah began comparing her body with those of her friends and women on TV, social media and in magazines. The distress of conflict at home led her to seek comfort in food.

I hated my body

Ever since I was 10 years old, I was told that I needed to lose weight or I was too big. I would get told this a lot from my skating coach. She would tell me that I needed to look a certain way or that I was too fat to fit into a costume.

Recovery is Possible

I struggled for 8 years with body image and my eating disorder where I viewed my body to be fat, disgusting, never good enough and obsessing over it. For me, this came from extreme insecurities, low self esteem/self worth, being a perfectionist, identity issues, anxiety and depression and placing other people’s opinions of me as higher than my own.

The Hidden Truth I’ve Been Too Afraid to Talk About

For most of my life, I’ve been very insecure about the way I look. Purging and bingeing is something I turned to as a coping mechanism when I was a teenager. I kept this a secret from my friends and family because I was afraid that they wouldn’t understand.

From me to you: please be brave

It has taken me six years to be able to talk confidently about my experience living with an eating disorder, six years of management and sorting through all sorts of conflicting emotions until I can logically share my thoughts with you in some sort of suitable word limit.
