Nefrit El-Or

Writer, blogger, musician/singer songwriter. 2e AuDHD, a free spirit, a coffee lover, and a lover of Love and of knowledge, of anything whimsical and of all things Nature, a mother of two, and a homeschool educator, Nefrit El-Or is an advocate for eating disorders recovery and autism awareness.

As a previously undiagnosed autistic, Nefrit spent her life feeling broken, as though something was inherently flawed within her. In 2022, after three years of unremitting starvation under the sway of Anorexia Nervosa, she found herself standing on the brink of death, burned out on a life she couldn’t do.

Nefrit had to leave her two young children and husband behind and spend ten months away from her home in the highest levels of care in treatment for eating disorders, battling for her life.

At the end of those ten grueling months, she returned home, filled with triumph, love, and gratitude for a world that helped her live.

Receiving her autism diagnosis was what helped turn the tides. It enabled her to finally begin unraveling her life and embark on a transformative journey of self-acceptance.

Today, Nefrit wishes to use her powerful and difficult experiences to help others navigate their own journeys, through her music and writing. She is an advocate for eating disorder recovery and late-identified autism, aiming to raise awareness for the prevalence and comorbidity between the two.

Her music, depicting her struggles, can be found on YouTube and other music platforms such as iTunes and Spotify. She is also a blogger and is currently finishing a book that chronicles her journey.
