Well, I got this idea from DC. This thread is about Eating Disorders. Here's a few.
Well, personally, I've had anorexia. Thankfully, it wasn't too bad. But one thing that gets on my nerves about teenage girls is the fact that they always say they want to have anorexia. Honestly, that is ridiculous. That's like saying, "I want a disorder." People who want to have anorexia are generally very uneducated about what it really is. So, the point of this thread is to educate everybody out there who thinks they want an eating disorder. If you read all this information and still want to have an eating disorder, go right ahead.
Anorexia is not just something that models do to stay skinny. It's not only a disorder, but it's an addiction. Just like smoking and drugs, you get addicted to anorexia. You can't go without it. Or in this case, you can't go with food. Once you deprive your body of food for period of time, you lose your appetite and you just can't eat. The same way smoker can't go without a cigarette. Once you get it, you may end up in the hospital. Eventually, you may have to choose between dying or eating. I'm saying all of this from personal experience, so please, do believe me on this. Anyone who thinks they want anorexia doesn't. Would you rather eat healthy and keep conscious of your diet, or end up in the hospital?
Anyone else who has thoughts on eating disorders, post them here.
Anorexia Nervosa - This is when a person eats nothing. They basically starve themself. A lot of times girls feel bad about their bodies and starve themselves trying to lose weight. Anorexia is not only a disorder but it's also an addiction. Not many people take it seriously, but it should definitely should be taken seriously.
Bulimia - A bulimic eats but forces themself to throw up the food afterwards. They do things like stick their finger in the back of their throat to induce vomiting. It's very dangerous on the body and can also wreak havoc on your throat.
Compulsive Overeating - A compulsive overeater eats a very large amount of food. Even when they aren't even hungry and it's not needed. Intaking a large amount of food this way is very dangerous for the body and is something to stay away from.
