The ED battle is the hardest thing we have ever done. We are three years in and just like you none of the signs were obvious until it was too late and the monster had taken a hold. It manages to use every insecurity to its advantage to keep a hold, like an octopus with so many tentacles. Every day that I think I cant keep going I have to remember that without our love and support my daughter would not be here and somehow we fight another day. Getting good support in Australia is difficult. The system is so sorely lacking and what good support that is available comes at a big financial cost. I wish you all the best for continued strength and for tour daughter to keep fighting.

This is becoming so so common. We are almost 3 years in with my daughter and her husband ating disorder. It is so hard to see the suffering of so many young people and yes I agree social media is the scourge for these young kids. The medical system in Australia is also so under equipped to deal with these issues.
