In high school, I was the fat girl. Didn't have a boyfriend. So I became ana/mia to get attention. When I met my soon to be husband I became Mia/Hyde(purple & blue), to lean out even more. I went from 190 pounds in school to my lowest just last year at 97. I guess for me I wanted to feel loved, desired, and feel good about myself. ↑

I could give you the text book answers as to why people think i have an eating disorder, but the reality is, i don't know. I was about 11, when I started to display symtoms of an eating disorder, but as for a trigger i don't think there was one, it was just how i learned to cope with life. I don't think why we develop ED is as important as how i am gogin to get this frigin monkey off my back ↑

I'm Not 100% Sure As To Why I Developed Mine.
Think It Was Just The Fact That I Thought I Was Fat And Someone Close Had Recently Passed Away.
