It was NOT YOUR FAULT that you were slipped the date rape drug... how ever you were feeling, where you were in your struggle is besides the fact. The only one responsible for you ending up nearly dying that time was the freak that slipped you the drug. I am so sorry that you had to go through that horrible situation on top of all that you were dealing with! Take care. p.s.

You can't come from that kind of pain and be " fixed" - it's a lifetime struggle that I'm all too close and familiar with. Recovery is EVERY day, and people are here to help. I just know the he'll my body went through when my stomach problems brought me to 93 pounds dripping wet, and I don't want the pressure to think that a size zero is perfect or pretty hurt you like it did my sister. Good luck, and god bless you.... I know from my own medical problems and my sisters Ed that 5′6, size zero in the fashion industry doesn’t sound like everythings ok.
