Creator and CEO of Diabulimia Helpline, 20-year-old Erin M. Akers was diagnosed with type 1 juvenile diabetes when she was ten years old. She struggled with controlling her blood sugar and weight for years until at the age of 14 she discovered the connection between insulin omission and weight loss. After dropping a substantial amount of weight her endocrinologist dropped her as a patient when he found out her uncontrolled sugars were intentional. This was the start of a dark journey for Erin that would last over half a decade and eventually lead her here.
