To mark Eating Disorders Awareness Week, artist Iwan Gwyn Parry talks movingly about how a secret battle with anorexia almost cost him his life.
The 52-year-old says he lived in ‘denial’ about the seriousness of his illness for many years, keeping it hidden from friends and colleagues.
In October 2022, weighing just five stone and with his body covered in sores and bruises, Iwan finally accepted that he needed specialist help.
He’s encouraging others who may be struggling to reach out for support, describing it as the best decision he ever made.
