AceShowbiz - Jameela Jamil, who has been known for being an advocate for body positivity, used to develop anorexia and body dysmorphia when she was young. "The Good Place" actress revealed that the trigger was when a class project required her to be weighed in front of her entire class.
"I was really unhappy and I think it contributed to my ability to have an eating disorder for so long, because there was no one kind of monitoring me and I had no one to turn to with my sadness and bad feelings, so I just had a really rough time as a teenager," the star recalled. She credited EDMR therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, for her recovery, sharing, "It works faster so it was much cheaper."
