Confessions of a former anorexic?

Hey. For the past year I've been keeping a dark secret locked up inside me. I was anorexic. I got many questions from people about the weight loss but I always danced around the subject delicately. I've seen help for it and have been recovered 7 months. Yesterday I was talking to a really close friend and how I should be an advocate for a healthy life style and help prevent others from going down my path. We made a plan to write an essay about my experience and post it to Instagram. The essay is about my life, my struggles, and my hopes. It was rather long but a few people decided to read it. I was rather proud of myself for finnaly stepping into the light and admiting to my past. I got a lot of support from people. The problem was I got quite a bit of hate too. Many people unfollowed me and blocked me. I'm actually not able to post/like/comment ect. until wendsday. Do you think what I did was the right thing? If not, how do I fix it? Please take time to answer this, it's been really bothering me. Thanks.
