man, i fucking love everybody on edtwt. like, i just want to grab you guys and smoosh us all into one big hug and tell you that it& #39;s going to be okay,, because it WILL be. it really will be.
like you guys are all just so fucking cool and smart and interesting and i really admire you all so so so much !! it& #39;s so inspiring to see you all going through such tough things and yet you& #39;ve never given up on your aspirations outside your ed.
i just want to talk to you guys all day long, i want to know everything about you and stay up late just chatting about anything and everything.
so please, if you see this, don& #39;t be afraid to dm me, or reply to any of my tweets an excessive amount of times !!! because i. love. all. of. you.
we all have some sort of ed here and i think that& #39;s something we truly shouldn& #39;t overlook. although every ed is different, it still allows us all to have a connection/a mutual understanding because WE KNOW. we ALL know.
we know the guilt of eating. we know the excessive worrying about calories. we know the frantic purging after going over your calorie limit. we know the exercise obsession. we know the feeling of trying to hide it from your family.
we know the feeling of wanting to recover but "not being sick enough". we know the crying and the frustration and the pain. we know.
and because of that, i think we all know each other - in some way or another. we all understand what it& #39;s like to go through this, to have an awful relationship with food.
whether you have anorexia, bulimia, bed, ednos, orthorexia, pica, etc. whether you are diagnosed or undiagnosed, whether you are fat or thin, short or tall, older or young. we understand, we empathise, we relate.
so PLEASE,, we can use this to be more connected. the world is cruel, life is short - we& #39;re wasting so much of it on this horrible relationship with food, you shouldn& #39;t have to waste it alone too. we have each other!!
just slide into my dms and ask how the weather is, or if i like this certain band that you love, or send me your favourite music playlist, or rant about your favourite film, or reccomend me this book you& #39;ve recently started reading, or send me a cute picture of your pets !!
tell me how your day went, or about how that cute girl asked you out, or how you managed to eat another meal today.
tell me how you baked something, or you painted or you wrote a song, tell me how your brother gave you a hug or how you and your parents laughed at a joke together.
