One of the loneliest parts of an eating disorder isn't the food, it's the silence, it's crying in your bedroom and making sure nobody hears. It's saying "i'm just tired," when you're actually falling apart.

One day, you'll sit in that same coffee shop and realise you weren't just drinking a coffee, you were rebuilding your life.

Recovery isn't a reward for being the sickest, it's support for people who are struggling. If you're struggling... that includes you.

Eating disorders don't have an end point, they have an endless list of conditions you'll never be able to meet.

You don't have to solve forever, you just have to get through this moment because every time you don't act on the urge, you're teaching your brain something powerful: "I can survive this feeling without obeying it."

The eating disorder makes all sorts of promises but if those things were waiting for you at the end of all this, wouldn't you have found them by now?

The eating disorder doesn't care if you die. But I do, your family does, your friends do and the future version of you does.

What i didn't realise at the time was that recovery wasn't asking me to lose my safety net, it was asking me to build a new one because the truth is, the eating disorder was never actually keeping me safe.

The uncomfortable truth about bulimia recovery is that your body doesn't magically trust you overnight.
