My Secret Life: A Memoir of Bulima

Leanne experienced severe bullying as a child, was very reclusive and quiet, often finding solace in writing. She suffered with mental illness from a young age, experiencing episodes of anxiety and mild depression. In her teens she suffered from Bulimia Nervosa and underwent several months of behavioral therapy. Leanne is now twenty years old and since that period, she has dedicated her time to her personal development, as well as her studies and writing. She is currently studying English and History at University College Dublin. She is a Section Editor in the UCD University Observer, and hopes to enter into the field of journalism after completing her degree. She lives in Bray, Co. Wicklow with her parents and siblings.
