Current professors, I'm smarter than I seem, I promise. Ask my professors from last year. I'm a tutor, an education major, and an honor role student. I'm obviously intelligent and able to hold my own in the classroom. I've been having a rough few months with my eating disorder, and unfortunately, you didn't know me before this relapse. You didn't know me before this relapse so you don't know the quality of papers I used to write, or how I would help lead in-class discussion. You didn't see me as the only freshman in an upper-level English class. You don't know how hard I have to work to even turn things in on time anymore. I'm a smart student, at one point, I was a brilliant student. But the eating disorder has messed with my brain and it's hard for me to think clearly or rationally anymore. It's hard for me to see a point in going to class, but I'm going anyway. I wish I could tell you these things, I wish I had some way of articulating that I am a good student, I'm just not in a good position. Please be patient with me.
