32) After a huge fight i had with my parents, i was taken to a phyciatrist about my ED. As she felt my heart rate, a concerned look came over her face. her words still haunt me. ‘You need.to go to westmead hospital now or you will die of a low heart rate.’ upon my arrival, i was told i would be placed in a ward that treats people with anorexia. The worst thing is when you tell people that you have this disease and they say ’ why cant you just eat?’ but its more than that, its a mimdset. Even though i have recently gotten out, i still battle everyday.
