I haven't checked this thread lately and am late to the party, as usual.
I personally have not had an eating disorder, but I have witnessed their effects on close friends/family. I'm also a teacher, and I see so many young women struggling with eating disorders and self-confidence.
I f*cking hate it that society/the media teaches young girls that the single most desirable quality they can have is beauty, and by extension, beauty via thinness. Warped, disgusting, and oppressive. We've still such a long way to go.
You ARE worthy. Just as you are.
