There aren’t enough words to describe how this article made me feel, but I’m so glad you wrote it. I think regardless of what you said/did, Brandie would have continued to harm herself until she reached her breaking point and found motivation to recover. Whenever people in my life apologize to me for not being there more during my eating disorder, I always remind them I had to go on that journey to find my truth and reasons for recovery. I enjoyed every minute of this story and part 1. Thank you for choosing vulnerability always my friend.<3
