Top Comments of this video!! :3
the denial stage is SO REAL. Now when I look back at pictures of myself it's so obvious to me. It kind of makes me sad to see that and remember that nobody tried to talk to me about it, even when I was hospitalized and they gave me a therapist specialized in eating disorders and monitored my heart they didn't say anything. During that time I thought they monitored everybody like that.
It instilled me with this deep rooted thought that what I was experiencing wasn't real, in years of therapy I didn't bring up the topic of food at all because I was afraid I was just imagining it. I'm glad there are creators like you that speak so openly about this experience so others can feel reassured that their struggles ARE real and things CAN change.

as someone who has professionally worked with eating disorders, I just want to say relapse is not only anticipated but expected as part of the recovery journey. This does not mean that you took a step backward but were at a different part of you're recovery journey. I hope you can continue to be proud of the strength younger jessie had to challenge their ED. And know that now that strength is still with you and continues to lead you towards things that bring you joy

Iām in the state of āoh haha yayy I ārecoveredā and no longer have too many health issues but I donāt recognize myself so I think that I look like garbage :)ā so seeing that little short of yours honestly made me feel something. I am not my disorder. I also donāt have to look like Iām half dead to dress up and be cute. Itās probably still going to take me a while to just be okay with the fact that Iām healthy and normal now but you really mean so much to me. I wish to be as honest and beautiful as you one day.

Dude you even sound more confident when you speak, hearing the video side by side to you now is crazy! Iāve been here since before that video, and Iām so happy with all the content now and that you seem so much happier. Also I had a similar glow up after my ED lol, I wanna show off my booty too lmao.

I haven't been here since that video, but I have been here since the end of the blue hair when you'd transitioned into bulimia, right before the short blonde hair and you really recovered- I believe you had just released "Skeleton." That's still a few years I've had with you, and I've loved watching your journey! So glad you're doing so well now.

Hi Jessie! I love your channel and I've been following you since about 2016. I was an emo teen with Selective Mutism too. You're such an inspiration to me and it's so lovely to have someone around my age to look up to. I hope you're doing well and I am proud of you for pulling through all of your challenges!

jessie iāve known you since 2016, your personality was so cool so started to follow your channel. i also once received your like in one of my posts of you on twitter which made me so happy. in 2021 i had a complicated relationship with food but your story with your ed somewhat motivated me and i am better now, the point is youāve inspired me and have accompanied me in many stages of my life and iām so glad iāve found your fandom merch diy videos 8 years ago, iām so proud of how far youāve become, thank you š

I had anorexia about a year and a half ago that left me with costochondritis(chest pain rib cage) near my heart area. Basically there isnāt a cure for it and I might have osteoporosis and I just have to live with it. I gained about 12 pounds since and it was really hard for me to gain weight for some reason but I feel much better now. I just have to live with chest pain daily its my new reality. Not everyone heals 100% and not everyone makes it. Im so glad that you did. Im still going to another cardiologist to make sure its not heart related.

I'm a year and a bit into recovery and I remember watching your old video deep in my ed, as I did with loads of those types of videos to try and trigger myself and get more ill. your recovery journey and your acceptance of your body has been really helpful for me, so thank you for your openness :)

thank you so much for this video jessie <3 i started watching your videos in 2018 when i was 13, iāll be 20 this year! i spent all of my teenage years in and out of a severe ED and eventually landed myself in inpatient treatment twice. when i was in treatment, it was when you had really started to post a lot of recovery content. it helped me SO MUCH to see someone iād always looked up to growing up displaying recovery realistically and positively. i am forever thankful for that. thank you so much <333

iāve watched this video 100 times, because it was the only āanorexia storyā that made me want to recover, and i couldnāt trick myself into thinking i was gonna trigger myself and leave feeling better. so itās absolutely fascinating watching you react to it. iām still not recovered, but so much better i was when i first video. and i truly accredit some of that to you. thank you jessie
