Anorexia
I just stumbled across a video on youtube, I was just looking for a song really but the video itself was to do with being anorexic - PRO ANA - the description said, which I didn't know what it meant at first until I paid attention to the video but I just don't understnd what makes people want to do this to their bodies
There are websites about that give people tips on what to eat or not eat...how much, how to get away with it and conceal it from their families, hiding food..... In the end these people just end up either seriously ill or dead. Why would people want to encourage this?
Ugh, I'm rambling and probably not making sense but it's sickening when you see how skinny these people get, I watched a documentary a while back with kids that were anorexic and it's just awful
I'm no good at explaining things, but I hope you get my point

That's retarded, why would you encourage not to eat!? Anyways, I pretty much agree with George Carlin on Anorexics and Bulimics. Which is a good time to bring up one of his stand up clip.
Sorry if I end up offending someone but anyways, I hope you enjoy this clip!

well you also got to look at all the other problems that are supported on the internet. even though bulimia and anorexia are bad, there are much worse things that are supported on the internet.
no matter how bad a thing can be there will always be someone on the internet supporting it. sometimes the best that we could do is just work with those that we know to try and stop it localy. If enough people do this then maybe it won't be as much of a problem.

Well of course there are. There are sites supporting Facism/Nazism.
There are sites about boy love(there's a link on ED if you really want to read see it).
But the evils of the internets is not the issue.
Anorexic chicks are ugly, which is ironic, as most people that starve themselves do it to become more attractive.
However, Anorexia is a disease, and there are those who can't help starving themselves, which is very sad.
It's possible to apportion blame to the fashion industry for telling girls that to be attractive they have to have the figure of a boy.
The people that purposely starve themselves are pathetic really, as they have no self esteem and conform to what certain groups of society deem attractive.

Carve your name into my arm. Instead of stressed, I lie here charmed.

Anorexia is quite sick to be honest, seriously, why would someone want to see their own ribcage or someone elses and find it attractive? D:
In all honesty I find people who support anorexia weird. (No offence).
I, personally, had eating problems before. When I was 11, my classmates used to tease me about my being fat. When I turned 13, which was my freshman year of high school, I stopped eating. I ate a piece of bread everyday and that was it. I developed hyperacidity because of that. Now that I am healthy and I eat right, the memory of that still disturbs me at times.
Which is why I feel for these girls who are still going through this. I know that most people can't understand why they made the choice of starving themselves, but the truth is that sometimes, being ridiculed was still worse than the hunger.
PRO ANA, huh. Anorexia isn't anything worthy to be upheld. I am curious of this video. Could you link it, Bambi?
All I wanted to do was listen to the song to see if it was any good haha
The girl that made the vid is only like 14/15 it's pretty shocking reallly
It says my body is m perfection and I would die for beauty somewhere in there aswel, there's nothing beautiful about a head that looks too big for your body and sticky outy bones all over the show
Anorexia
