"have you ever ...(ED and Fibro)"

Sorry the sound is so low and the quality so bad.
Mini update at the begining, today's not a great day, feeling a lot of joint and muscle pain, and im really tired.
Here are to extracts from my English oral exam on the topic of Fibro and Eating Disorders.
00.0015 - 00.01.58 : Fibromyalgia
00.0158 - 00.06.12 : ED. (i'm still not sure about putting this up here, so i may take it down, i was trying to express what it is like to have an eating disorder, and how scary the feeling of having to gain weight can be, and is for myself. I also was trying to get across that eating disorders are NOT about losing weight to look good, the behaviour is usual just a symptom of a bigger issue or coping mechanism for something else. Obviously eating disorders effect everyone differently, and not everyone has the same thoughts or behaviours. I haven't mentioned all the behaviours in this, it is mostly focusing on restricting and over exercise.
I feel really stupid posting this, so it may not stay up for long.

The Fibro symptoms are spot on -there are days were it hurts badly to walk then you do gain a lot of weight. I am trying my hardest to fight it and exercise to try to lose weight with huge amounts of pain but if i sit idle i wont be able to move very well... Hope one day they will finally figure it out.... Wish you luck on your struggles

@tiredofbeingsick Thank you,

Yeh, i lost weight because of the vomitting/sickness side of the Fibromyalgia, but obviously weight gain is common with any debilitating illness.

Thank you for watching it, hope you are as well as can be.
