Why this petition matters

It may seem as if not many people in this world have an eating disorder (Ed) but in truth many do. I was diagnosed in September with anorxia and since then I have seen 2 people every week who help to keep me alive. Most people who have an Ed don’t talk about it because they don’t feel like anyone would understand. In the past month I have found 2 people who both have anorxia; it was so comporting to know that I was not the only person who was struggling with this. If nothing goes unchanged there may be many people who struggle or even die from this problem. I hope that some day it will be normal for people to talk about Eds anxiety depression or any thing like this and not feel judged. If I could gather everyone in the world who has or had a mental disorder I’m sure someone you know would be there; you may not have even know something was wrong. As time goes on it has become more common for people to talk about anxiety and depression, and no I’m not saying that it’s perfect yet, but people who have Eds can never talk about what they go through. We get comments like well why don’t you just eat, you know you just have to eat that it foamy matter if you want to or not. These things don’t help at all in fact they make things worse. Eds are not really about food they are about control so if someone tells you to eat you want to do the exact opposite. These are things people would know if society would not make us feel judged. I hope that someday girls and boys of all ages will be able to talk about their Eds, and I’m hoping this petition is a first step, so if you would please sign and share this to help many people some who may even be your friends or family.
