The impossible standards of perfection take hold of a young mind and twist it into something almost unrecognizable to even itself. I wish I could say that I never have these thoughts anymore but at least I can tell them to shut the fuck up:) ( I only cursed it because I fucking meant it:)LOL Jenni,

What a stringent initiation process to get into a sisterhood. I'm glad we both survived and have come out the other end strong enough to share our stories and try to help others understand and avoid this path. You are doing great things my friend to help so many. XOXO Indeed, the sisterhood of the eating disordered. What a stringent initiation process to get into a sisterhood.

I'm glad you battled the disease and won - even if the thoughts creep in from time to time. Sometimes we hold ourselves to impossible standards... in many areas of life. ANd sometimes those standards are dangerous. You are fucking amazing. PS- I am trying to only curse now when I fucking mean it. Deb-

So I'll say this. I'm so glad you are alive. You are a eating disorder survivor just like me...our paths were very different, but we are like sisters understanding the world of shame together.

I am lucky, I survived. NOt everyone does. I have to tell this story because if it can save even 1 girl from this fate, I will shout it from the roof tops. THe comment was taken as it was because 1) society had already conditioned me to think that I needed to be perfect. When my own father inferred that I needed to "run more" in my brain, it was solidified. I had to control this and not be at the will of the weight. I realize it sounds crazy but it is how my mind wrapped it up and processed it. Jess,
