Thats an awesome question and one thats hard to answer. I dont know why hashem tests us but when He does, you cone out a better person. what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. I myself have been dealing with anorexia for the last few years. Bh I got the help I needed in time and im much better. However, its something im going to have to deal with for the rest of my life. I often complain “why me” and why can everyone eat whatever they want and not gain weight but I cant and I would only enjoy life if I wouldn’t have this pressure… its a daily struggle. But one thing I know for sure. Since it all started, Im able to understand people so much better. Im not an innocent teenager anymore who doesnt know what the world is all about. I know that everybody has problems and i wish I can solve them all! Unfortunately I can’t. But I can be there for my friends when theyre going through hard times. And its not like im preaching when I encourage them because I know what pain is like. Life isnt about avoiding problems and pain; its learning how to deal with it. You emerge a better person with the ability to understand and help others and the ability to deal with any hardship life may throw you. I personally am of the opinion that a perfect life (which basically doesnt even exist) is not a life!!! Were meant to go through things to learn lessons and become better people. And if everything is going well for a while and then you fall upon hard times, show yourself how strong you really are. Pick yourself up and carry on!
