Solène is 17 years old.

Since she was 14, she has suffered from an eating disorder, anorexia.

She tells about her healing journey, and her fight against this particularly violent disease.

“When you are very, very thin, it causes a lot of problems in everyday life,” explains Solène.

The young girl then has difficulty breathing, walking, and staying awake in class.

The body works at a low speed and must find new strategies, such as increasing hair growth, for example, to warm up the body which lacks fat mass.

And her healing journey, Solène chose to share it on TikTok.
