Today my book is released! From being an athlete with a dream of running for GB to becoming a revolving door patient. It felt all hope was lost. But I'm now in recovery, an athlete, & running free from anorexia. I hope sharing my story will help others. https://t.co/DjKtCWphwX

@libby4000 I really feel what you wrote. You certainly aren't alone in feeling this way💗

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

Please do get involved if you can in this really important research

[Kirsty Matthews @KirstyJM_Psych]

I’m researching the eating disorder voice (EDV) experience- please share this advert if you can! I’d be so grateful. And if you’re over 18 and have experience of an EDV, follow this link to find out more: https://t.co/WB0FnYlh3M

What a ridiculous headline. We don't see headlines like "Millions using inhalers for five years or more."
Anti-depressants and many other psychiatric meds can help to save people's lives. Stop shaming them and those that use them.

Millions taking antidepressants for five years or more https://t.co/DYLdZmRjIW

Feedback like this is just 💗

We’ve heard from some truly incredible humans today, but this lady just blew the 🚪 off. Powerful, humble, emotive 😢 & perhaps most importantly, happening right now in sport. ‘To run faster you need to lose weight’. 🤬 🤦 Pls check out her words, her work, her 📕 @LittlebexQ

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

@mitchskills Thank you so much, it really means a lot for you to say that.

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

Can't wait for the Everything in Sport conference tomorrow! I will be sharing my story of developing an eating disorder as an athlete. Honoured to be a part of this innovative action packed two day conference @everythinginspt

The waistband in my trousers broke at work today and my trousers fell down in the office. How was your day?

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

@pigletish Really sorry to hear this. Hope you are ok xxxx

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

@bowler_natalie Ahhh thank you 💗🥰

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

My book is on super special offer for less than £4 for a limited time. Thank you to everyone who's already bought a copy. Receiving feedback of how much it has helped people is exactly why I wrote it. #eatingdisorders

And if you have already read my book, I'd be so so grateful if you could leave a review or star rating. It really would mean a lot to me and hopefully help my book to help others ♥

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

I did a presentation today to over 100 nursing students at the University of Leeds, & to receive feedback that it was incredibly inspiring & will influence the students practice for their whole career...it's just 💗🥰 & exactly why I do what I do. #eatingdisorders #mentalhealth

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

I'm in the April edition of Women's Running magazine for an article about RED-S & eating disorders in sport.
#Eatingdisorders are over 3 times more prevalent in sport than the general population but it's very rarely spoken about. So I'm speaking about it & hope to raise awareness

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

@HopeVirgo I think it's important to recognise that everyone's recovery is different and everyone will LOOK different in recovery. I find it equally helpful hearing from people managing recovery as those who are "fully recovered" (whatever that incredibly loaded term actually means)

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

@bowler_natalie I've loved every minute and very sad to be leaving.

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

Research opportunity

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

@Lizefb Oh I see. Thanks.He's an idiot.

[Rebecca Quinlan @LittlebexQ]

Why does my twitter have some sort of animal (like a fox) in the menu options? What is this fox?
