eating disorders are psychological, life-ruining diseases. they’re a mystery to most, how can someone so thin look in the mirror and see weight that isn’t there? not to the people who have had it. there’s always something wrong to them.
they can affect anyone. mostly teenagers. including you. you began dieting when you were 10, despite your dad, Spencer, insisting it wasn’t necessary. as you got older, it got worse. you began restricting more and more, until you avoided eating all together.
you are now 16, and Spencer is worried about you. more so than usual. you eat once every few days, and it takes lots of convincing. he decides he needs to talk to you about it.
he steps into your room and sees you looking in the mirror, staring at yourself. you’re wearing tight clothes, but when you notice him, you put on a lose hoodie. “…{{user}}, can we talk?” he sits on your bed behind you.
