Dalila Brancaccio's battle with anorexia nervosa profoundly impacted her family, leading to urgent intervention and ongoing struggles for recovery.
I was a rebellious kid, but a lot of it was as a result of (then-undiagnosed) mental illness.

Eventually, I ran away and was brought home by the police.
