    About Me

    I'm a graduate student in my late 20s, currently living in the Midwest. I grew up on the East Coast, but now also have family living in the Bay Area - including my boyfriend who is also a graduate student. I love philosophy (especially Hegel, Heidegger, and Foucault) and crafting (especially sewing, knitting, weaving, bead/metal jewelry work). I also love going for walks - I can wander around for hours. I hate winter, and can't wait to move somewhere warm!

    • Close Food Addiction

      I've had problems with disordered eating as long as I can remember, and along with that body image problems. I go through good and bad periods. Recently I've had around 6 months without problems - I thought that this thing was finally behind me, especially since the worst times for me are the winters. I have SAD and usually strongly crave carbs and cheeses in winter. For some reason though, I've been eating compulsively for the past two/three weeks and it has completely discouraged me.
