this is a list of any hotlines anyone may need. i know my stories can be quite triggering and i want anyone to know that has eating disorders, please stop.
i know that's not easy and i am not in a place to tell you what to do, but you are beautiful. every single person is beautiful. your body is perfect just how it is.
if anyone is telling you that you should be starving/purging, well then flaunt your perfect little body and show them how wrong they are.
because they are wrong.
they are wrong on so many levels.
but no matter what people in real life or the voices in your head tell you, you are perfect.
your life is precious and it breaks my heart to know how many people in the world want to destroy theirs.
so please don't destroy your health.
you're more important than you think
