One hour After My Revelation.
Talking to Jasmine.
We are discussing things that happened Before My Revelation.
She tells me she was once like I was.
We are already using past tense when referring to that disease, my disease.
Something she calls an ‘Ana girl.’
I ask her to explain.
Anorexia girl.
She tells me she was proud of it.
But no more.
I ask her how hard it will be to get over anorexia.
Anorexia.
Amazingly hard for me to say.
Even my tongue is part of this war between my heart and my head.
I like that she does not sugar coat the facts.
‘‘I T . W I L L . B E . A L M O S T . I M P O S S I B L E.
