You guys could go to the park.

It might be nice for you to talk to someone outside of the four family members that you're stuck in a house with.

So I reached out to Lana.

And Lana was one of the only other black girls in our mostly white Upper West Side middle school.

So we always had this connection that I didn't really feel with any of my white friends.

And we always understood each other on a deeper level.

And I reached out to Lana and we made plans.

And they're quarantined.

She was one of the only people I ever actually stayed in contact with.

I was kind of isolating myself from school and my friends and even my family because all I could think about was food.

And so I reach out to Lana, and we make plans to hang out, and I'm really excited.

And the next week, I go to the doctor's appointment.

It's very cold in there, and the doctor isn't very nice, and I'm being weighed, and I feel very watched again.

But I know I'm going to see my friend in a couple of hours.

So I make my way from the doctor's appointment.

I walk 10 blocks to her house.

But as I'm walking over to her house, it hits me that I'm sick and I have an eating disorder.

And when you hang out with people, you're supposed to eat, and you're supposed to have fun eating, and you're supposed to talk with each other and not focus on the food.

But all I could focus on at the time was food.

So I'm making my way over to her house, and I'm very excited, but I'm also deeply, deeply stressed.
