You can recover! Everyone's definition of recovery may be different; but that doesn't mean that it is not possible! Take the steps necessary to take care of yourself, today! Best to all of you! -- Troy

Kayleigh, I so hope the film inspires you to find your own "someday". I know it's difficult at times but never give up hope. You CAN do this. xo ~Misty

I am really looking forward to finally seeing this film....I have been struggling with bulimia for 8 years now, (currently in a bad relapse)...just from the previews alone I see a lot of myself in Melissa and her struggles. Thank you for all that you have been doing to bring more awareness to eating disorders. xx

Dear showorker, I'm so glad you're in recovery and so grateful you shared it with me. You discovered the "magic" ingredient - the willingness to fight through the pain, both physical and emotional. Hearing stories of recovery are what fuel my determination to continue speaking out and sharing Melissa's story. I wish you the healthy future you deserve. Many hugs, Judy

Last october was my last stay in inpatient. I went from over-exercising, to purging, to diet pills and I've tackled each problem head on. Melissa's poetry reminded me of my own diary. I later turned it into a movie on youtube, complete with my own photos and my own voice reading the words... I relate so much to Melissa's drive and creativity- but also her lows in life. I have attempted suicide more times then I can actually count (my brain was so messed up when I was sicker). I'm actually still amazed I made it through what I did- because I know many who haven't. A friend of mine passed in April of this year to complications from her eating disorder. I walked at the NYC walk this past year in memory for her.

Watching Judy reminded me so much of my own mother and the exclamations she would make when I was at my depths... words liked demons... she could sleep knowing when I was in the hospital. I'm not out of the woods yet. I'm 23 now and have had my eating disorder since I was 12 so it's an everyday struggle still, but I have been stable for about a year now.
