Symptoms

The eating disorder is not the only symptom I have been struggling with.

Depression, seizures, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, bouts of oppositional defiance disorder, self-destructive behaviors, varying dyssomnia ...

Different people see different things. They try to 'cure' whichever symptom makes the most sense to them, or is what they understand.

But all of these are just symptoms of the single, deeply-rooted, wretched secret I live with every day.

I am worthless.

No previous treatment has worked because nothing addressed the real cause of my problems.

Maybe now I can fight this face-to-face.
