Anorexia was my first love. We met and were and were instantly attracted to each other. We spent every moment of the day together. Through its eyes I saw the world differently. It taught me how to feel good about myself, how to improve myself, and how to think. Through it all, it never left my side.
Loosing anorexia was painful, like loosing your sense of purpose. I no longer knew what to do without it to consider.
