Abstract
Drawing on personal experience in performative memoir practice, Caitlin Mary Margarett Sørensdatter discusses the redefinition of the self in the midst of anorectic suffering. While asserting that social media can be an extension of memoir development, she compares highly visible micro-celebrities who represent different aspects of the public's consumption of anorectic stories—the unrecoverable and the recovered. Refuting the damaging simplification of recovery narratives, this essay explores the inherent value of stories emerging from the crossroads of anorectic experience.
