Without You The video on this page portrays my struggle with bulimia and anorexia, self injury, drug addiction, suicidal ideation and depression. I used to think it was not possible to recover. I tried everything. Medications. Counseling. Many hospitalizations at: - Janeway Children's Health and Rehabilitation Centre (St. John's) - James Paton Memorial Hospital (Gander) - Central Newfoundland Regional Health Centre (Grand Falls) - Health Sciences Centre (St. John's) - Waterford Hospital (St. John's) - Homewood Rehabilitation Centre (Guelph, Ontario)
I pretty much felt like I was a lost cause. I had no desire to live, no desire to fight, no desire to get better. I was so wrapped up in my illnesses and addictions that I cared about nothing and no one.
But after hitting rock bottom and realizing that Newfoundland had nothing to offer me anymore, both the government as well as the doctors agreed to send me to treatment in Ontario. After spending 10 months in the Homewood Centre, my outlook began to change.
