Todo ya

Mia, a 16-year-old who is returning home after recovery for an eating disorder. The show has been praised for its sensitive and realistic portrayal of anorexia.

She is struggling to reintegrate into her old life after being away for so long, and she is dealing with the ongoing challenges of her eating disorder. She is also trying to figure out who she is and what she wants, which is something that many teenagers can relate to.

Mia can be quite self-centered and whiny. Personally, I found Mia to be a bit of annoying. I appreciated her complexity and relatability, but I also found her self-centeredness and whininess to be frustrating at times.

This movie tackles very sensitive issue and this was able to show the good side and bad side of healing. Healing is not a very easy road, even you have people to support you, the can't help you enough.

Healing is a process, but it can also be a realization. It takes time but the world can wait.

Hope this reach to everyone struggling with mental illness.

I know that we are going through a lot right now, that even moral support can't lift us up anymore. This battle will be rough and difficult, but ourselves need us. Lets fight for ourselves.

Btw for a little background by me, i'm suffering from major depression.

I loved the casting and the setting of this series. There's no gender segregation or Hollywood-style drama here; it simply portrays children and parents living their lives. Carli was particularly appealing, and I'm glad they didn't portray the East Asian girl as a stereotypical character.

By the way, it's clear that the characters are quite wealthy. With their huge, beautiful doors, spacious kitchen, wide bathroom, Koi pond, and annual trips to Greece(?) with their dad, they definitely come from privileged backgrounds. While some aspects may seem unrealistic, the heart of the story revolves around Mia's battle with an eating disorder.

Despite the somewhat 'unreal' elements, the kids and teens in the series are charming and vibrant. This drama is aimed at a youthful audience, and I appreciated it because it presents a vision of a better future. It avoids discussions of race and sexual orientation, creating a world where everyone is free to be themselves.

I do really enjoy teenage dramas, but what I couldn't understand is why all these amazing loving caring cool friends would care SO much for Mía , who is in general not a likeable person. She is not interesting, she doesn't have a big personality, she is not nice to them, she is most of the show pretty quiet actually (other than the voice in her head we keep hearing) her character is boring and overall not interesting. I ended up watching the show for all of the other characters. I did find it very similar to Euphoria in a very soft way, but not as interesting or dramatic which makes it more real cause these are just kids.

I don't know any of the other actors, and I think they're great, all of them.

I do know and really love Stephen Fry.

I haven't ever suffered an eating disorder, nor has anyone close to me.

So I can't tell how realistic those parts of the series are.

I do know that 90% of those suffering from an ED do not have anorexia, and still almost 100% of tv shows, movies, documentaries about EDs are about only those 10% of sufferers. That's... just not right.

I did note that all of the characters were rich, that was quite strange/unusual.

Large, newly renovated, perfectly designed houses etc.

I only give a 9 or 10 rating to shows or movies that feel almost life changing, and this wasn't one of them, but I think it's really well done and for context I'm also a fan of Sex Education, Wednesday, Euphoria and Derry Girls.
