Ten minutes later, horribly unbearable cramps would follow where the only thing to make it feel better would be to hold myself in the fetal position, cry sometimes, and wait for it to pass. I was not getting the proper nutrition in me constantly, because every time I would try to get something in my stomach, my body rejected it. Along with this, I could not sleep. Every second of the day I would be exhausted. I found myself not being able to stay awake and focus during class. I was not able to execute my sports to my full potential simply because my body was fatigued all the time. The worse part was that while I was tired all day long, my body would not let me sleep. I remember lying in bed every night, begging, pleading for any amount of sleep
