Trigger warning ⚠
I've been wanting to do a video like this for so long but never felt the time was right & was also scared.
But if you know me, that's exactly when I know I SHOULD do a video like this.
As Mum & I slowly wade through emails & ring backs as we start to tentatively 'un-pause' SEED Eating Disorder Support Services the things I'm reading & hearing break my heart, but they spur me on to keep going. We are vitally needed. Thank you all for your continued support & patience.
We can't get back to everyone all at once as it's just Mum, Dad & I at the moment, but what I can do is share my truth in the hope that it -
🌱 Helps raise awareness of eating disorders
🌱Dispels the stigma in the hope that it encourages others to not feel ashamed & seek help
🌱Hilights the devastation an eating disorder can cause
🌱 Educates those who don't understand Eating Disorders
🌱 Educates health care professionals on how they can make a difference in a positive way AND a detrimental way
🌱 Deters anyone from going down the path an eating disorder wants you take & hopefully encourages you to chose the path to truly thrive
🌱 Helps anyone experiencing what I have/am & know that recovery is possible & they are not alone.
I am sorry if it's graphic, but is too important a conversation not to have.
I hope this helps 🙏
You matter 🌱
Love G 💚 x
Ps - I may run & hide after sharing the this & it is my brothers wedding tomorrow, so apologies if I don't engage or reply straight away 😘
