anorexia

A SERIOUS MENTAL DISORDER! Absolutely not an extreme diet, you fuckheads! Get your facts straight. I have anorexia, and let me tell you how horrible it is. Every day of my life is a battle. Every day. Try living a day in my shoes and see how it feels. People with anorexia use food as a way to cope with feelings they can't express or deal with. It's a coping mechanism with feelings of comfort and safety attached. It can't be 'cured' by 'eating a friggen sandwich' or 'having a milkshake'. No. It can only be treated by seeking therapy, nutrition counseling, and/or psychiatry. Anorexia is NOT a choice. It is a disease, and unfortunately completely misconceived as a pathetic diet. Well you're wrong. Anorexia has the highest mortality rate of all mental disorders. Diet? I think not. Please be informed on the reality of this disease. It's not something we do for fun.It's the worst, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Anorexia is aweful. I hate it.
