The Return of Eugenia Cooney

1. Cried my eyes out.
2. SO proud of Eugenia for every thing!!!
3. I fkn love Shane with my whole heart. HBD Dad!!!!
4. I’m so happy he used Bruce’s song!!!! Was so fitting!

I’ve never had an ed so i dont really know what are triggers but i’ve tried to structure the video roughly. The times will be full minutes but the actual scenes only start like 10 seconds before or after. I’ve also read that many people have gotten weight-loss ads on the video so please be careful with that.

0:00 – 8:00 : Old videos, shane talking about the video, about his concern on Eugenia

8:00 – 16:00 : shane talking to an expert about what to expect, what to avoid etc. (He takes medication in the beginning of the scene)

16:00 – 19:00 : shane’s joking around with ryland, addresses his former job on a news/gossip? channel where they talked about Eugenia

19:00 – 22:00 : on his way to e’s house, taking his medication, watching old videos of her where she does her makeup, dabs off the grease, old photos of her show in the end

22:40 ish : they greet each other at her house. E’s pretty, kind, and bubbly as always. she’s glowing.

24:00 – 33:00 : (funny) House tour (very disney-, doll-house- like) (25:33 old photos of her, around 27:15 theres like a 10/15 second old clip where a fan says something to her that’s meant as a compliment but is very hurtful , goes on till like 27:55 , shows some of her reaction)

30:50 – 32:00: e talks about fake and real friends, mentions of bullying, negligence, death, internet bullies (after that they goo to a door with like a very strange lock, i cant describe it, it’s like a wooden beam in front of the door, the whole house tour they have this joke going on that the house is super sketchy. It’s all just joking around but maybe it could trigger some people)

33:00 : talk on the patio about how the change was for Eugenia

35:00 : real interview with e in her room, she tells her story (mentions of SPOILER: eating disorder (detailed & graphic description of the professional is blended in from around 36:00 – 36:40), bullying, rehab (graphic, from like 40:30 until 43:30 ), at like 43:40, for like 30 seconds, the professional talks about how her patients hate gaining weight & that they ask her how they can love themselves like that- she gives the advice to be nicer to your body), shane’s eating disorder, how hard it is to HAVE to eat all the time, typical day before treatment, short blend in of descriptions of anorexia nervosa & bulimia nervosa, refeeding syndrome: mental illness, heart attack, heart monitors, tube feeding (very shortly), how people treat affected ones)

Eugenia seems very well put together, lovely as always, you can see it’s hard for her to talk about it though.

51:00 ish: mood lightens significantly, Eugenia says she would like to get more into make-up, fashion, s tries out makeup

55:00: they pretend to make a video so shane can see how she normally makes one, little melancholic, shane tells her that he’s proud of her, blends in old videos , some hateful stuff, eugenia cring, mentions of therapy

57:50 ish: e has some positive words, shane leaves, blend in of national eating disorder help line phone number

last minute or so: and i oop (watch this!)

all in all, the video has a very positive undertone, they seem comfortable around each other, they joke a lot, so it is definitely worthwile to watch!
Take care guys! Also thank you so much for this, shane! i followed eugenia for some time and to see her like that now makes me unbelievably happy! love you two and im so proud of you!

Everyone: “I know Shane’s video is going to be about [blank]”

Shane: Ha you thought
