Neta, 21, bulimic for 5 years, participant of Project 2020

“Neta is dependable on her parents in any possible way. Recently she started going out of her home to her dad’s office to learn about book keeping, which gives her a new interest. I speak and speak, whiting that something of what I say will go through, reminding her, that even though she is sick for a long time, she is only 21…
She can still decide differently. Make a change. She looks at me with her big beautiful eyes, speaks slowly and silently.
She describes a difficult and sad routine. I ask her who she chooses to share it with and surprised to hear when she answers no one. Not her parents or friends. she is 24 hours in her own head.”
