You do not have to tell it perfectly.

Sometimes you wonder how many times you have to start telling it over and over again. Your disordered eating story.

I wanted Life in Person to have somewhere safe for stories like yours. You do not have to explain yourself or tidy it up first. You can share a little or a lot, in one go or over time.

Share what you want to, when you are ready.

Why Sharing Your Story Can Help

Before You Submit

Your story does not need to be polished. It can focus on:

Early patterns or conditioning
Periods of escalation or change
Barriers to finding support
What helped
What did not help
What you would want others to understand

How Submissions Are Used

Your story has somewhere to go.
It will be read by someone who understands what you are describing. That is enough.
All submissions are handled confidentially.
Life in Person is a non clinical peer support and education platform.
Submissions do not replace professional care.

Prefer to email?
Send your story in your own words and in your own time to

[email protected]

You can send it in parts. It does not need to be completed all at once.

Testimonials

Margaret

Documenting my complicated history with body image was incredibly intimidating. However, seeing my thoughts organized on the page helped me dissect standard behaviors I had normalized for years. Knowing this story is going to someone who truly empathizes creates a powerful sense of community that I couldn't find anywhere else.
