I always tell myself and my friends that I want to start being more open about my eating disorder and my recovery process. But, as always, saying and doing are very different things. What would "being more open" mean? It's not something I want to have to sit people down and explain. But it's not usually something I can casually bring up in conversation. So how to approach actually telling people?
Another concern is that I have no idea how people will react. Usually when I tell people they treat it as very normal and serious. But I've only told close friends, and I'm afraid that if I share it publicly or tell people I don't know as well they'll make it into something scandalous, which is exactly what I don't want. I want me sharing my story to facilitate removing the stigma associated with eating disorders, but I'm very afraid that it will do the opposite and that people will treat it as a secret instead of asking me about it.
