Today is the 3rd day of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. It’s also the one year anniversary of when I first walked through the doors of a place now all too familiar. Little did I know I would spend 4 months walking through those doors and feeling every emotion under the sun. But what I remember most is the fear.
I’m sorry. I’m sorry that instead of meeting your gaze, my eyes stay fixed ahead at nothing. Just the road. Or sometimes my phone since it seems to always be in my grasp. Anything to not look your way. I’m sorry this interaction, or lack of, is normal for you. I’m sorry being ignored is […]
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve even thought about sitting down to write. Time moves too quickly, nursing school seems to never let up, and in moments of rest I tend to instinctually grab the remote to watch the most recent episode of This Is Us or a re-run of Parks and Rec for […]
