Produktbeschreibung
Now a sophomore in college and in recovery from depression, anxiety, and an eating disorder, in this courageous personal account Lucy Quigley erases the stigmas associated with mental illness, explains the feelings associated with living through the often hidden and painful reality of disorder eating, and helps motivate other young women like her to recognize their worth within their moments of darkness. Lucy's story of her first year of recovery honestly depicts the struggles and emotional issues that many high school-age and college-age women endure as they move through the challenges of establishing their identities and finding self-worth and confidence in the midst of life transitions, setbacks, and confronting the unknown. The most important lesson that Lucy learned during her year of treatment is never to give up hope because when you're at your worst things can only get better. An eating disorder is like an abusive relationship. If you put in the work to challenge the voice of the eating disorder in your mind, your own true voice will get stronger. Your relationship with yourself will improve. Making the decision to live a full life, taking the time to care for yourself, and connecting with people will empower you. Never forget that you are worthy of a wonderful life.
