During groups, I was most amazed by the young women who were being treated. These girls were 14, 15 and early to mid-twenties but wise beyond their years.  I suspect it was because they had been dealing with their eating disorders for a while and some had even undergone treatment before.  Being in the disorder and recovering from it requires much introspection to understand what causes it and how to heal from it.

I learned SO much from these young women, was inspired by and gained so much respect for them (don’t forget I was 39 at that time and knew it all :)). My wish for them all is that they find a way through these eating disorders so they can live happy and healthy lives. They all are so deserving.

I hope they’re reading because they know who they are and I love them so even though I haven’t seen them in over a year.
