Troian Bellisario Is Glad Films Are Starting A Conversation about Eating Disorders

Troian Bellisario is happy that we’re finally having a conversation about eating disorders in films.

During her appearance on Build Series today (July 21), the actress opened up about shattering the taboo topic and tackling it on the silver screen.

“It’s a challenging time for this community because talking about it always brings up feelings, but I think it’s also really important for us to be open in our conversations and not be treated as a taboo subject because eating disorders are alienating,” Troian shared.

“They are isolating and they leave you to feel like nobody understands your experience and you’re suffering alone, and that’s actually how they’re designed to keep you in a place of pain. You know that your disorder is screaming so loud when it tells you, ‘You can’t ever tell anybody about this because you’ll never get out and nobody will understand you or help you.’”

Troian added, “I think the fact that we’re talking about it and making treatment not scary but a possibility for people. I think it’s a really important conversation, as challenging as it might be.”
