| How would you confront a friend with an eating disorder?From my own experiences, confronting a friend with an eating disorder will lead to nothing. When people would tell me how skinny I was or that I needed to eat more, I ignored them. What did I care? I knew what I was doing. I didn't need someone telling me it was bad or harmful. I knew all of that; I just wouldn't change. Yes, it is a good-great thing to have encouragment from friends, but in my case, it did not speed my recovery. The most important thing is God and therapy. Therapy isn't just for crazy people, so don't go jumping to conclusions. That is how you dig deeper into the root of the problem. You can't just treat an eating disorder from the surface. Go to the core. The only reason I am alive now is because God had mercy on me. He was gracious enough to let me have a second chance at life.

| I really kind of hoped this would trigger something in his brain. Perhaps he would change his mind about certain things (or people) and see the plain truth. The obvious facts. Perhaps. Not. No, don't wanna be the only one you know
I wanna be the place you call home
I lay myself down
To make it so, but you don't want to know
I give much more
Than I'd ever ask for
