** Warning: This post mentions eating disorders and body dysmorphia, which could be triggering to some readers. ** 17-year-old student from Mexico María Fernanda shares her recovery from an eating disorder in a short graphic novel, hoping to spread awareness and let other young women know that they are not alone. “If anyone reading this is going through either disordered eating, body dysmorphia or both, let me first send you a really long and heartwarming hug. Let me remind you that you aren’t — and will never be — alone. Let’s stop making comments towards each other’s bodies as well as our own. Let’s show our friends they can turn to us when they want to feel safe and not judged. Let’s welcome anyone and everyone who feels moved to talk about their struggles with body dysmorphia and eating disorders, let them know they are no longer alone and encourage them to seek professional help. Let’s constantly remind them how worthy they truly are — no matter their weight, shape or size.” 💛 #digitalart#comic#malalafund
