About this user
My name is Cassie, I'm 20 years old, and I have Eating Disorder not Otherwise Specified or EDNOS.
"When you are sick like this you begin to wonder too much. Death is at your shoulder, death is your shadow, your scent, your waking and dreaming companion. You cannot help, when sleep begins to touch your eye, but think: What if? What if? And in that question there is a longing, too much like the longing of a young girl in love. The sickness occupies your every thought, breathes like a lover at your ear; the sickness stands at your shoulder in the mirror, absorbed with your body, each inch of skin and flesh, and you let it work you over, touch you with rough hands that thrill.
Nothing will ever be so close to you again. You will never find a lover so careful, so attentive, so unconditionally present and concerned only with you."
- Marya Hornbacher, WASTED
