Hi everyone!
Welcome to my blog! My name is Emma Demar, and yes, I have the same initials as "Eating Disorder," hence edoneds. I am currently pursuing my Masters in Clinical Social Work, and will receive my degree in May 2017. I eventually want to have a private practice and specialize as a therapist in Eating Disorders.
My passion and knowledge about Eating Disorders stems from the fact that I myself had and recovered from Anorexia Nervosa. I was diagnosed with the disorder at age sixteen, and battled with the illness for a couple of years before recovering between ages eighteen and nineteen. Throughout my battle, my treatment (both outpatient and inpatient), individual therapy and reading up and watching anything I could get my hands on about Eating Disorders, I've worked up my own base of knowledge on the topic. With this blog, I wish to spread valuable information and awareness on the topic. My mission is to be a voice of reality from someone who has first-hand battled and recovered from an Eating Disorder, to raise awareness about the the truths and myths surrounding ED's, to inspire those struggling to recover by offering my own advice on recovery, and to offer insights and support for family and friends of ED sufferers.
I welcome and encourage thoughts, questions or comments. My e-mail address is emmaddemar@gmail.com and my instagram (on which I promote my blog) is: @emmadayledemar. I also have a Facebook page for my blog which can be found by typing in "edoneds" to the FB search bar.
Thank you and please share with anyone who may be interested!
ED.
