As someone who has been in elevated levels of care, this is brilliant. You and your words are brilliant. Thank you.

I have struggled with anorexia for over two years and this piece is very relatable, especially the last line. Right now, recovery feels impossible, but I also imagine a future full of freedom and independence. I created my own Substack last week called Swimming Through Molasses where I share my own experiences with anorexia and the recovery process as well as opening up the comments for other people to share their stories. I just wanted to comment on how much your piece meant to me as well as asking if you have any feedback for a new writer and young person struggling with an eating disorder.
