I have suffered with anxiety and eating disorders from a young age and haven't had the courage to speak out for help until recently.

I had moved to a new school and was feeling the pressure to do everything at once which sent me into a state of panic and frustration that gave me anxiety attacks ontop of my emetaphobia. My friends were the first to notice, and i realised how much i needed friends in the dark of where my mind rests.

Its easy to go into everyday with a smile on your face with nobody to notice as you get used to putting an act on, yet something that came back to me at all times was when i read that 'the only person who can help yourself is you', which stuck to my mind throughout my suffering, as it gave me the motivation to want to get help.

You need to fight for the love you want back for yourself. You are all loved and it can get better, it takes motivation and support ❤️🩹
