This isn’t everything you are.

I look forward to the day when I can say that “I’m recovered.” I had an eating disorder and I battled depression but I worked hard and survived it.
I have defined myself by my illness for so long and tonight I had an epiphany. No longer will I let myself be controlled by my illness. I know that somedays it will be hard and the struggle will take all my effort but I am willing to put in the work. I am willing to continue fighting for a life free of this hell.
