s-e-c-r-e-t-s… (shhhh)
I have a confession that has nothing to do with EDs (at least not directly)… every Sunday, I love looking at the PostSecret website to read the cards sent in by anonymous people from around the world.
Today, I noticed that the eighth postcard down described a coke (the drug, not the drink) user’s realization that s/he just liked abusing the stuff because it helped him/her remain thin.
Ouch.
Cocaine is a fierce foe, and I understand it’s incredibly addictive and extremely tough to quit. The thought of someone continuing to use it so s/he could be skinny is unfathomable.
Wake up, ladies and gentlemen.
Thin (especially at all costs) is not “in”.
The next time you find yourself degrading anyone because of his or her weight, think first and hold your tongue. Stop sending the message that being skin and bones is better than living a long, healthy, rewarding life.
