Why I Shared My Anorexia Story with the World

When I first started writing about anorexia, I had so much information that I felt compelled to share.

There was so much pain and misunderstanding around the topic that I couldn't stay silent.

It began slowly, with incremental posts, but I knew the importance of sharing truthful stories.

People called me brave, but honestly, I was just apathetic at that point.

However, I realized that sharing my story could make a significant impact, especially after hearing someone else's story about suicidality.

Have you ever felt that sharing your story might help someone else?
