Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This is not an attempt to seek sympathy or attention, but a pledge for support and encouragement as I participate in the great north run in sponsorship of the eating dissorder charity beat.
Having suffered with an eating dissorder and endless attempts of recovery and relapse for over 10 years now is my chance to overcome obstacles I never thought I could. All I ask is for a donation to sponsor me, and support others who are suffering and enduring this silent disease and mental struggles in every day life.

Support from loved ones and encouragement is the most important part of recovery. I could not tackle daily struggles without the help and support I am receiving and it is truly overwhelming to know just how much help is offered to those suffering with eating disorders. Speaking out and seeking help was the most difficult part after almost 10 years, but the support is incredible. Mental health is nothing to be judgemental of or hide from, it should be embraced, tackled and fought together. So here’s a huge thank you to all the support so many like myself have received, recovery is not impossible, it’s a challenge you cannot fight alone. 

I myself am still recovering and facing new challenges with this disorder and mental health issues every single day, but this is a new challenge for me, something to push me and make me more determined to overcome this illness that has controlled my life for over 10 years. With your help let’s fight this battle. Thankyou!
