Until the Death of Me

A 15-Year Eating Disorder Recovery Journey

Healing is rarely linear. This memoir is an honest reflection on recovery — not as a single turning point, but as a long and deeply human process of learning to return to oneself.

Until the Death of Me is Saori Okada’s debut memoir, documenting her lived experience of navigating eating disorder recovery over a fifteen-year period.

Written with honesty and restraint, the book explores the emotional and psychological realities of long-term healing — moving beyond simplified narratives and quick resolutions. It reflects on self-worth, identity, and the slow rebuilding of trust with the body and the self.

While the subject matter is deeply personal, the message is ultimately one of quiet hope: that recovery is possible, even when it unfolds gradually, imperfectly, and over time.

This work laid the foundations for Saori’s later approach to wellbeing — where compassion, presence, and sustainable self-care remain central.

Themes explored

  • Recovery and healing over time

  • Self-trust, self-worth, and identity

  • Compassion and emotional resilience

  • Learning to return to the body gently
