I received the lovely message below from Mia last night. Her recovery and subsequent ED advocacy have amassed her a following on YouTube of over 4,000 subscribers.
Mia's videos are heartfelt and honest. Please take a moment to watch her video below and subscribe to her YouTube channel if you are struggling with your ED. You will not regret it.
Cheers to you Mia, and thank you, for all you do in helping others to recover. Love, Medusa xo
"Hi Medusa, this thank you could be a long one. I first discovered your
website at the age of 23 when I was living in London 5 years ago,
spending Christmas by myself and stuck in the worst b/p cycle I've
probably ever experienced after weeks of starvation. Whilst looking for
pro-ed material, I found your site and couldn't stop reading.
Particularly when I found a page titled 'Bulimia Kills'. When I saw the
photo of the deceased young woman in that post, I was shocked to my core
and forced out of my ED denial for the first time. I wouldn't get help
for another two years, but the image of that girl is still with me every
day.
I have been in recovery for 3 and a half years and started to document my recovery on YouTube, as a journal. It's somehow transformed into a recovery community with over 4000 subscribers and I have found my purpose (and obligation as a survivor) in becoming an ED advocate. Some portion of this is thanks to you, for giving me a touchstone and purpose for getting better and a drive to try and help where I can. So thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Yesterday, I put out a video featuring that photo and detailing how I found it on your site. The response has been so overwhelming and that is yours to share in."
