I'm just an ordinary 39-year-old--with a 20+ year history of anorexia nervosa. It has the highest mortality rate of any mental illness, yet somehow I'm still here and now at a healthy weight.
Not long ago, I met my soulmate--a brilliant man and a vision of perfection. He saw something in me that convinced him I was amazing and in turn, I developed the motivation and courage to fight this eating disorder. Everything made sense and all the suffering and consequences of my poor decisions in life that landed me in this exact position to meet him, made complete sense! I had a purpose and love, a reason to pursue my dreams again!
