When I was much younger, I suffered from anorexia for a long time, and that led to anxiety and depression. I dealt with that at a very young age – I was 14, in school, when everything is changing in your life. Your friends are changing and hanging out with boys, and I felt really insecure about myself. It was all those changes going on that prompted something in me. 

I think we need to address the youth, and focusing on them is really important because that’s focusing on prevention, rather than treatment.
