Hello, I am the new writer
My name is Jenna Kantor and I FINALLY got a hold of writing for this blog. Years ago, when this blog first came up, I jumped at it, but someone beat me to the punch.
Why would I be so anxious? I have issues with food. I have lived, worked, survived, and faced my issues with food. I was part of a 12 step program for three years that helped me accept and learn that I use food as my source of addiction. If I was still in the program, I would not even be allowed to blog or mention their name in my blog because it goes against the 12 steps. I may not be in the program, but in respect to it, I am going to do my best to not mention the program by name. I do not want to mislead anyone into thinking that I have represent other groups. I am just another voice with a very strong opinion about food. It can be a drug and for me, it is my drug of choice.
So here I finally am and I get the amazing opportunity to write about food. I am a performer first … grew up as a ballerina, so when it comes to all types of eating disorders, I have seen it all.
In this blog, I hope to help people with these eating disorders find they are not alone. That would be super cool.

As you can see, suicide is a very serious problem, and someone who is an alcoholic increases their risk for suicide by a very large margin. If someone in your life is a problem drinker, educate yourself about the signs that can warn of an impending suicide attempt in order to be prepared for such an event.
