there’s a disguise, one that is so strongly built it’s convincingly scary. The disguise is one that continuously builds, it builds till there’s a thick wall that no one and not even yourself can see behind. Now we say ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’ and it’s cliche but it fits perfectly with mental health and it’s sufferers. An individual is always smiling, laughing, social and getting on with life..and automatically that makes them healthy. But that assumption can be so wrong because the inner emotional world isn’t always shown through physical actions of smiling and laughing - behind closed doors can be someone suffering more than ever...I was that girl. That girl that worries about what food was going to be put in front of her, that 10 hours of exercise a week was never enough, that my body was something to be despised of...I wasn’t good enough. Behind my smile I looked in a mirror frequently and hated it all - Anorexia had me, had me so disguised I didn’t even know who I was internally. Check on your ‘strong’ friends because what you see is not always what’s there. Mental ill-health is a silent killer. Don’t let your friend suffer in silence, unmask the disguise.
