“If I'm good at being tiny, I'm going to be the best tiniest person I can be.”
Growing up in a picture-perfect family, Amber Hart always felt just mediocre. She wasn’t the smartest student, she wasn’t the best athlete and she didn’t have a knack for music or drama. Eager to stand out at 15, she realized she could be the best at something -- being skinny. Suffering in silence, Amber couldn’t open up to her parents about her eating disorder. She coped by drinking and using drugs, and hid how she felt emotionally. She felt skinnier, louder and funnier. On a path to self-destruction, a trip abroad and a new friendship dramatically changed that course -- and how Amber had always seen herself.
Content warning: This episode contains talk of weight and specific numbers that could be triggering to individuals with eating disorders.
