Demi Lovato's Fight Against Eating Disorder

In 2011, she opened up about eating disorder and bullying. You know who I'm talking about?! Demi Lovato, a 22 year old Disney Princess.



Currently, she's on tour, and she told Fitness Magazine that she almost went back into rehab because of her eating disorder.

She had the chance that her boyfriend told her something was wrong. How's that? He told her she was obsessed again with food, and overeating, and terrified of eating... That's a lot to handle alone, but by aknowledging it, she got the chance to get back on track and not going back to this vicious circle of bulimia.



However, I'll use this post about Demi to remind everyone that eating disorders are mental illnesses and not a lack of control over what you eat.
As I wrote it above, it's a mash-up of feelings, and bad thoughts about yourself mainly, combined with the obsession and aversion of food (you can't stop thinking about what you're going to eat, at the same time, you're trying your best not to eat, and every bite of food makes you trembling, shaking and sometimes even crying).

People who suffer from eating disorder are not good in their bodies, they don't appreciate themselves for what they are. They are people who clearly are lacking of self-esteem.
And I'm not just mentioning bulimia there, anorexia is concerned too by this poor self-esteem (even if some psychiatrists are telling that anorexics love themselves.... pro-anas maybe....).

I'll write some posts about eating disorders, as I think people need to know better this kind of illnesses that people who are suffring from it are very talented to hide it.
