Bulimia

My friend Joan always one to watched her weight and constantly did aerobics. She was like a hamster, always running on the wheel in its cage. She would eat healthy everyday and was in great physical shape, or so everyone was led to believe. We would hang out all of the time, and I didn’t realize it then, but she was suffering from a serious case of bulimia. It wasn’t until about six …

…moved away with her family that summer, and we have lost contact with each other over the years. I still remember that life-changing event clear as day, and I probably always will. I know that disorders like these are happening everyday, and it is scary to think about. Everyone should be aware of the people around them because if you don’t act today, who knows if you’ll have the chance to act tomorrow.
