World Premiere: Starving In Suburbia!

An eating disorder is not just about wanting to be skinny. It’s about control. We all feel so powerless and overwhelmed in this world…the society puts so much pressure on us, so we desperately grasp whatever we can control- for some it’s how much we eat. When I was a ballet dancer I couldn’t control how arched my feet were or how flexible my back was- but I could control how skinny I was… You fall into the trap of false sense of power- but the war that you are fighting is against yourself… Do you really want to win? #starvinginsuburbia airs on Saturday at 8pm…#anorexia #eatingdisorder #thinspo #thinspiration #fitspo #dancing #dance #ballet #obsession #addiction #loveyourself #healthy is #beautiful #youarenotalone- via izabellamikoblog
