Alexa Bliss posted on her social media today about her most recent tattoo. She first talks about one that she has had for a few years, and then focuses on the most recent one. Bliss continues with the fact that her tattoos have personal meanings to her and she is also a fan of them being done in white ink.
The meaning behind this latest tattoo references her history with having an eating disorder. She has been very open and honest about her struggle in the past. Bliss explains the different parts of this tattoo and how a trip to Disney helped her.
“This tattoo is a lace design that incorporates a lot of meaningful things to me. It includes an eating disorder recovery symbol that blossoms into a flower for “new beginning” When I was hospitalized, my hospital room was decorated in tinker bell items because tink was my favorite. So I have “ the second star from the right “ from Peter Pan hanging down. & last but not least, when I was at the worst part of my eating disorder, my doctor wanted to send me to the inpatient center in Pittsburgh, because seeing 5 doctors a day wasn’t helping me. My parents made the decision to give me a break from seeing doctors all day every day.
It was a constant reminder of how sick I really was. So before having to be sent away, my parents took me to Disney world to give me a small break. Which happened to be the best thing for me. When I went to Disney, I actually began to eat. Slowly but surely. By the end of the week, I had gotten so much healthier that I didn’t need to go away to Pittsburgh. So Disney is not only my happy place, it’s my healing place. So there is a “ hidden Mickey” in the lace design. So all together this tattoo represents a crucial point in my life & I love the design Stephanie came up with to represent this moment in my life “
