Bulimia Nervosa

Through smokey eyes, there lies a girl whose innocence begins to materialize To her surprise no one can hear her cries because she's all alone in her masked disguise Don't blame her, blame the world Blame this girl she thought would unfurl But now she's numb and feeling quite dumb Her eyes tear-stained she's coming undone

I was a victim of severe bullying and had weight issues when I was a child and I still do. Not only was I bullied by my classmates throughout my school life, but by my brother and other family members as well. I could not escape the torment. Then I started to binge and throw up and i lost over 150 pounds in a year. I felt beautiful and happy. Then I was raped at a party i went to with my best friend and in my mind I no longer wanted to be viewed as "beautiful".
