'I thought my body was a write-off - but it's never too late to recover'
Tears welled at the corners of my eyes, overspilling from the torrent of relief that surged within. In just six words, the fertility doctor had answered a question that – for over ten years – I’d been too scared to ask. A question that had haunted and taunted me through the darkest days of a decade-long battle with. A question that had continued to pester and goad me throughout recovery, and for the years that followed, even when I’d left my sickness firmly in the past.
It's no surprise that the rate of recovery from eating disorders has a way to go; it is, to put it simply, a minefield to escape from. Studies have found that, while 46% per cent of anorexia patients fully recover, 33% improve and 20% remain chronically ill. While it’s important to note that more people may eventually recover after a non-supervised period of time, the numbers are still upsettingly low.
