There are holes in my memory, missing pieces of time claimed by malnutrition. It is a bitter pill to swallow, knowing that my own actions had such severe consequences. Knowing that I so wholeheartedly believed that what I was doing was right, that it was what I deserved. Losing pieces of myself to an identity that did not belong to me. A girl is not supposed to be a disorder becoming nothing more than an illness personified.

A girl is so much more
