It's not about being skinny. It's about striving for love and accepted. It's about being wanted

You know what it's pointless, only low life girls resort to this, it does nothing good to your image, you look like drug addict, chain smoker, a drunk or a mental illness patient. You don't get to look like all those skinny, glamour catwalk models, people start to think you have issues, that your abused, crazy and ugly. They either resent you or pity you.
You know what does feel good thou, being active being yourself and not giving a sh*t just expressing yourself with out care,.We like if other ppl like us, no denying it, but ppl like ppl who don't give up. It's just a body for goodness sake get over it. Be happy, be creative, be active. 
-msg me... i mean it.

Fuck low life girls. Clearly you how no clue about this.

I disagree, just because one does this does not mean that they are a low life girls. Depending on their wanted goal and how they are doing it to get there, some girls who do this do probably have low self esteem. But some do it because they are "bigger" and do want to lose weight. But getting to the point to skin and bones to me, is scary.
I do agree, be active. Best way to get "skinny".

Because its always for low-life reasons, eh? Always -just- because of the fucking weight? Always just to be thin?
Thats the same fucking reaction EVERYONE seems to assume, and I can tell you right now ITS NOT!
Get your head out of your ass and actually try to think. Stop with the stereotypical, BULLSHIT Thinking that 'Oh, youre doing it for attention. Oh, just get active. Just eat. There are better ways to lose weight" blah blah fucking BLAH. Its not that simple. Its not that easy. And despite what oh so many people think, its NOT that black and fucking white!

Well, it is true that there are better ways to lose weight or get toned (Which is, in a sense, losing weight). But yes, it isn't that black and white.

Its not about the weight...
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
It's about being skinny, wanting to be skinny. It's have a distorted self image of one's body. Or it's related one way or another, so in all ways, it is about the weight (one way or another).

Eating Disorders are about.........

worth
Everything but food
many things...
inner pain unspoken
Never ever wanting to grow up and being AFRAID of it, feeling you have to be on the edge of death to finally acknowledge your worth, missing the past and dreading the future, wanting to be sucked away from the earth, wanting to feel like you're good at something... needing a protective bubble to keep you safe from everything you fear.
I couldn't have described it any better than that, -name removed-
anger
shame of who u r
Yeah, like you have to redeem yourself through torturous fasting, like you have to cleanse yourself. Stupid ED. It's really dreadful.
controlling something, when everything else is out of your control.
Trying to control a situation, or feelings, through the means of food, even though the end result is a loss of the control you so desperately want.
guilt, shame, anger, avoidance of feelings. loss, failure, self hatred
The body express what the mouth shuts
for me it's drilled into my brain, and how I cope. I absolutely hate it.
Scary because it's like someone foreign to you has control over your thoughts and actions!
To be a thing of my past.
trials & tribulations.....
relationships~
Hiding from my true self! Scared to be the beautiful woman whom God really made me to be!
unexpressed feeling and issues
being able to control something when everything else is out of your control...
feelings, not food!
control and routine and fear
and then lack of control as the voice of the ED takes over
Screaming out that somthings wrong and not being able to say wats wrong.
life

It urks me when people think its about food. And in relation to weight..

I know this is from the beginning of the month...but this is a beautiful reply. I was actually shocked that one of my reasons for my unhealthy habits was listed....

So many people completely miss the point, and see it in black-and-white. Think its only about food, and weight issues. Think its as easy as 'just eating' but its not.
And I think its kind of sad, because then you get the flames, and the idiocy, and all the other bullshit. It doesn't make it any easier.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I know. And you're right. 
I know exactly what you mean. I hate when people can't understand it's more than putting food in your mouth and chewing.

Thats good! Congratulations hon <3
Its not about food at all..
Shit, I saw a quote yesterday that explained it perfectly, and I can't remember it :/
Either way...

Ok perhaps I phrased it incorrectly this is not what i think ok. This is how other people see you they don't understand whats going on inside your head, most are insensitive, blind and ignorant. Some are just scared. I used to have ana but I've recovered, I am far from forgetting that trauma. I had no1 who would understand only ppl who made it worse, i was the only one who could help me. -You can choose what to control-, but you must most of all accept yourself. Its ok to be you, it's ok to feel pain it's ok to be regretful but you don't have to punish yourself. I am not saying be happy, clappy, hopping clown, just be at ease with yourself. We have to be strong for ourselves. Please consider my words and do not hurt yourself.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
As far as things go, am trying. But if you have suffered as well, you should know its not an overnight, easy thing.
Its difficult, and takes a while. And even so, I dont honestly feel one 'truly' recovers. Its like an alcoholic, y'know. Theres still that struggle..
I really do appreciate your kind words, though, and the understanding. And I appreciate you explaining what it was you were trying to get across.

Your right it doesn't just go away by itself,it stays on for a long, long time but not in the meaning that you think, the struggle is about self confidence and self image. Humans naturally seek comfort in food, and by starving your trying to take the blame and punish yourself. The struggle is about self esteem and a sense of worth. It stays on as sad and miserable memory. I remember that I used to feel very alone and left out. When I first laughed after too long I remember feeling guilty for it, it felt so unnatural like I've forgotten how to do it. I also felt guilty because I felt laughing was wrong. But it does go away, you need time to get used to changes. Good luck to you and to the others.

Aww... Beautiful, emotional and realistic photo. Good job. Like I'm just feel so.

It feels good if you do it without damaging your body.. starving yourself will kill everything good inside of it..
but aside from that, I like the picture. It's a sad common quote circling around pro mia websites though.

It's so stupid to think you have to eat nothing in order to get slim, how about you try and eat properly and exercise instead of starving yourself to death? The mesage is stupid.

Depends what kind of thin you mean.
If you mean skinny, toned and energetic, I absolutely agree. Nothing tastes good enough - not even those potato chips that taste SO DAMN GOOD - to beat the feeling of having a slim, healthy body.
If you mean skipping-food thin, fainting thin, eating-disorder thin, I highly disagree. What's the point of killing yourself so you can look emaciated and half-dead? There's other ways to get skinny.

I hope you realize there is more to life than worrying about weight. Eating disorders are hell and nothing to be proud of. I am just earning my life back, and trust me, its worth it.

I hope you find the strength to recover and to get out of this horrible disease. I've been in here for 8 years...my hair is falling out, my bones are weak, I faint...I've lost friends, my grades, and my future.
There are many things that taste better than thin feels.
