Help Us Heal: NEDA Fundraiser

It started with a diet. It quickly progressed to restricted eating, leading to full-on restriction, leading to guilt every time I ate, leading to purging. It started when I was 7 and has progressed throughout time to now at 19, almost 20. Eating disorders are no joke and nothing to mess with. They're not fun. Not quirky. Not cute. Not a personality trait. They ARE AN ADDICTION. It becomes a PART of you. It CONSUMES you as you feel the need to not consume. I have lost people to EDs and I lost MYSELF to them. I was better for a short amount of time, relapsed, got better, and recently relapsed again but am recovering and NEDA empowers everyone else to recover and strengthens me. I want that for other people as well. Donating to this fundraiser for NEDA will provide community supports for current struggles and survivors as well as awareness. Please donate and help me empower others.

REMEMBER HEALING ISN'T LINEAR.
