Hi, my name is Huntress.
Since early this year, I have suffered from anorexia. It has been hard. I am still trying to get over it. My friends have been supportive, my teachers have tried to help. Despite this, I still find myself questioning whether I’m enough.
I chose to reach out for support.
I chose to start healing.
That’s why I’m here. To reach out.

Hey there @Huntress
I just wanted to say welcome to the SANE Forums. My name is Amber22 and I am a peer support worker here at SANE. I think it is a really brave thing for you to do to reach out for some support and some advice on what you've been struggling with, and I really hope that you get that support here.
I just wanted to let you know that I am sitting with you and sending lots of hugs 💘

Hi @Huntress i just wanted to say hello and welcome to the forums 👋
I too have an eating disorder- atypical anorexia and it’s often an up hill battle. Just wanted you to know that you’re not alone and there are supports out there. Have you reached out to the butterfly foundation before? They are great…. But they have become very difficult to connect with, but certainly worth a try.
im around too if you ever wanna chat.
