There's a whole world or worlds that are unknown to me, and sadly I only know the too-simplified explanation of eating disorders. This was enlightening...

I would never want to shame an addict - but you helped me to call myself out on thoughts of: I want to be skinny to - and I too have a sugar addiction and an overeating problem that I need to manage...

-- and stop just naming one end of the spectrum addiction...both ends are equally unhealthy. I recognize this.

We also need to start realizing the middle ground of those two ends doesn't have a "specific look" - and that's where it gets dicey when everyone has their own definition and still move to shame those who don't fit "that look".... 😒😕

Keep writing - keep educating -- keep growing beautiful you!
