"Trapped in the House With an Eating Disorder"

So proud of my twin sister for talking about her recurring struggle with an eating disorder and for seeking help. Love you!

My own battle with Anorexia nervosa began when I was 11 years old. Despite a handful of serious relapses over the past 39 years, I am lucky to have been able to have a relatively normal relationship with food and a more healthy body image for the past few years.

One outlet I've had to address my past with disordered eating and self image issues is in my creative writing.
