What is one thing you wish people knew about your eating disorder?

Leave a message or reply to this post with one thing you wish you could tell people about your eating disorder. How does it affect you, what do you feel, what do you want the most, what is it about, anything like that. I want to take all of your statements and make it into a visual of some sort (video/picture/etc) to help challenge the assumptions people make of eating disorders. Hopefully this will help all of us see beyond the very idea of an eating disorder and understand the hearts of the individuals. 

It won’t take too long! Your one statement will help raise awareness.
