From people who came through it
“I was right where you are in 2023. The gym as punishment. That was my life. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. Sending love.”
Matilde G. · been through eating disorders“For whoever is where I was: I was right where you are two years ago. Back then it was counting everything. This morning I sang in the car. It changes. It really does. x”
Fisherman in Uppsala · been through eating disorders“I was where you are in 2022. I remember when an inpatient stay when I was 17, like it was yesterday. I got a new job this spring. You get yourself back in pieces.”
palesa.root21 · been through eating disorders“Reading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are about three years ago. A dietitian I trust, every single day. I picked up the guitar again. Bit by bit it comes back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
