I am Lorna. I am a 22 year old female living in the UK.
I originally set up this blog to document my own recovery from eating disorders so that I could use it to look back on how far I have come, but I have ended up blogging about other mental health disorders and advice in hopes that I may be able to help others choose recovery.

My own mental health story began when I was around 10 years old and started to use eating disorder behaviours as a way of coping with my anxiety and to try to control my weight due to a low self esteem. I suffered in silence for 10 years due to feeling ashamed and embarrassed because of the stigmas surrounding mental health which is another reason I now enjoy blogging about it as I want to help break the prejudice so that others don't have to stay silent like I did.

I have taken part in a variety of different therapies (I have some blog posts about this) and was discharged from the hospital, I attended for two years, in September 2016 and have since been trying to stick to recovery on my own.

I hope that if you're reading this and are going through similar things to me, that my blog may be able to help you.
If you have any requests for blog posts you'd like to see feel free to leave me a comment letting me know :)
