About Me
- Bio
My name is Christina and I am 21. I've suffered 10 years of physical, sexual and verbal abuse carried on by two males that were in my life. As a result, I have suffered binge eating disorder, bulimia and anorexia nervosa since I was 10. In addition, I had over exercise addiction have abused weight loss teas, amphetamine pills, diuretics and laxatives. My weight went from 130 to 278 pounds to 68 pounds at height of 5'7. I started out over exercising and had lost over 130 pounds in only 11 months. At the time of my exercise addiction, I was also restricting and bingeing and purging. Once I reached a normal weight I developed anorexia in which I just stopped eating completely. I dropped a pound a day and was so convinced that dropping weight was my ultimate drug. My hair eventually fell out, I had massive edema eventually and just sick. I ended up in the hospital and almost died of heart failure and brain damage. My speach was quite messed up for a while until that eventually got better. I went to treatment for 60 days in which I regained weight. After I left treatment I immediately hopped on a scale and freaked out so badly because of the weight gain that I started bingeing and purging again; I felt extremely out of control. So here I am trying to recover AGAIN. I want to recover but I'm struggling with the health conditions that comes along with healing and recovery.
Aside from my other life, eating disorder, I am a very free spirit and I love people in general. I love black and white photography and I consider myself an old soul. I'm very sweet, empathetic and caring. I have been through a lot which is turn has made me wise, strong and understanding. There is a ton more about me so if you would like to know more please feel free to contact me. I usually don't like to fill a lot out in these things.
Looking forward to being here.
<3 Christina
