  1. I'm currently having a very bad time. I suffered a big los and I'm dealing with grief. It's absolutely devastating. My eating has suffered quiete a bit and I feel like I have to start from the beginning again. But watching your videos always gives me hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel❤️‍🩹

  2. Thank you so much! You helped me so much through my ED recovery and the end of which I developed OCD. It actually feels very similar to me but I don't see as much content and help for OCD as EDs. Thank you so much for acknowledging it 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    Edit: grammar

  3. I’ve missed you Ro!!!! You are the only normalcy there is now in my life! Please make more videos🙏🏻 My cat just recently passed away and so my world is completely upside down and your videos are the last of my normal world! They are so comforting and helpful. Please post more. Much love from the USA💛

  4. You are the youngest you will ever be again, and that is true for every passing second. If you are alive, you are going to get older. There is nothing to fear from age. Only things to gain.

  5. I rarely comment on videos but want to pause and tell you that I was in a really bad place a few years ago and struggled through anorexia recovery, and your videos helped me so much. I really want you to know that. 🫶🏻

  6. It’s lovely to get a notification saying you posted again ♥️ I found your channel this year when I started to try and heal my relationship with food and body image. Watching your videos made it feel a little less scary to dwell into the whole process of healing. You’ve created a channel that feels like a safe space, it feels like no one judges anyone here and that alone is wonderful. Thankyou for all you do Ro, you’ve helped me immensely when I needed reminders and encouragement. And we’re all so glad to see you back and well 💕

  7. Thank you Ro!
    You made me reach out and get help for my ED and anorexia. I am no where near recovered but I am getting the help I need and you helped me realise I needed that help. Hearing how you can control your thoughts and the attitude you now have with food and body image helps me feel so confident and trusting for the future knowing there can be a change❤

  8. Thank you so much Ro!! you gave me the courage to recover from AN last year and i cannot thank you more!! you are TRULY an AMAIZING person! i hope you will prosper in life! i wish all of us all the best! ❤

  9. i used to think eating healthy, drinking any tea, and being patient would make me stay healthy. all it did was turn me into an accessory in my own life. i was done letting my emotions be a leash around my own neck. i needed to learn how to hold the leash instead. that is when i got the book ancient medicine by martha henderson. i followed the science backed methods of our ancients and within days i felt better than ever. i do not apologize for wanting control of my health anymore.

  10. Dear Ro, I've been following your channel for years, especially when I was struggling with an ED. Thanks to you and your openness, I finally got tested for ADHD. It's changed my life. Tomorrow I'm going to a therapy group! Things are finally falling into place. I can finally be more gentle with myself about certain things I struggle with and have always struggled with, many of which you've openly shared on Instagram and YouTube. That's how I realized I had the exact same symptoms, which then led me to get tested and diagnosed. Thank you so much for sharing your story and sharing such insightful information about mental health. I appreciate you so much! 💓

  11. It makes me so happy to hear that you enjoy doing the podcast, because i absolutely love listening! As a 23rd old girl living alone and having dealt with anorexia when I was a teen, and still navigating anxiety and OCD type symptoms, you and Jacies content is so relatable and comforting.

  12. I’ve been following your channel for such a long time and truly admire the journey you’ve been through. I’ve always wondered what exactly caused your PTSD — whether you’ve already talked about it in a video that I might have missed, or if it’s something you prefer not to share. Either way, I really respect your openness and the strength you’ve shown throughout your content.❤❤❤

  13. You’ve come so far and you’re an inspiration to us all. I haven’t got anorexia but I’m on the opposite side of the spectrum I’m obese but I’ve started eating properly and better and lost 2 stone. Just wanted to say you’re amazing! Also your hair products recommendations I’m going to try and use because I suffer from trichomania (anxiety hair pulling). Thank you so much! X

  14. I agree soooo much with that whole ‘time and the year 2025 ending’ conversation. I turned 21 this year and i feel so old and like I can’t wait for this year to be over but it also happened FAST and I still feel like a teenager at the same time somehow. I apréciate you, Ro. I’ve watched your entire process. Sending hugss💗

  15. On the Meds I am, my brother ended up in the ER, and wasn't feel good. I have an history of an ED, but before being on the stimulants I am now, I practiced mechanical eating, and even when my appetite is low, i do eat. My bf thinks the meds may not be really worth it, but recently I have been put on two stimulants – and they help me. As a person with ADHD Bipolar and OCD, it does get better!

  16. Ro! I’ve missed you! You saved my life a few years ago. We recovered together. I would eat “with” you by putting on one of your videos while I ate, and it helped me so much just knowing someone else understood what I was going through. I felt heard, supported, and inspired to keep going. Recovery wasn’t easy; it of course had its ups and downs, but I’m now approaching my 2-year recovery anniversary. I’m proud to say I feel comfortable in my body and I’m no longer afraid of food. So please don’t worry about posting. We love you and we understand. Nothing will change if you don’t post consistently. I’ll always keep coming back. You’ve made such an incredible impact on my life.

  17. Love this update. So happy to see your recovery has gone the best it could. Very proud of you ❤

    For you theory I found it helped being quized in the real world by drivers or asking folk stuff as you go xx
