There are no pros. They have a mental disease. It's a sickness. This in my opinion is hardly debatable.

Accept yourselves for who you are.
The yearn to achieve a certain look to satisfy others and popular standards by putting your health in jeopardy, in my opinion, is just plain stupid. 'Nuff said. |

i can understand how people can become anorexic. its just a way of thinking. i used to think like that but never to that extent. besides, i like food too much.
 but seriously, i'm against it but i can see sometimes where anorexics are coming from. i think we shouldn't really discriminate against them, but try to help them. its a disease, and not entirely their fault.

If allowing people to do whatever they want to themselves means killing themselves slowly then that's not good. I know that anorexia can actually lead to weight loss but you can get really sick and you're really weak all the time. When I was in Ethiopia I didn't anything cos I wasn't used to the food which really could have develpoped into anorexia and I'm so thankful that it didn't. I lost a lot of weight and all but it was in an unhealthy way. I was always tired and short of breath and got sick easily and I don't usually get sick. It's so horrible how so many people suppress that you should be so skinny and perfect. It's ok to have admitt it and have someelse tell you how they feel but if they bring it up constantly (like my all of my aunts -_-;;;;) then you're gonna want to do something about.
Anorexia is bad. The end. |

It is a disease that leads to the eating disorder. Anorexia is a two sided disorder... mental and physical. The problem with people who have anorexia is that they have a warped view of how they look. No matter how skinny they get they still percieve themselves as fat. Even people with anorexia who are down to skin and bones still think they need to lose more. The warped view these people get leads to the eating disorder [starving] Yeah... as for whether or not I think people should be left alone... I think they need to get help.
I had a very close friend of mine who was anorexic. IT was crazy. She was completely obsessed with food and her weight... but she suffered medical problems because of the anorexia as well. People with anorexia need help... other wise they will starve themselves to death. There are definitely NO PROS TO ANOREXIA. |

MENTAL ONES... it's just another different warped view. But that's a WHOLE nother subject.... and I won't go there now... unless it's brought up under a different topic. cause it's off subject for this one. |

I wasn't trying to bag on you or anything if you do cut yourself... personally to me that's your perrogative. I won't get into trying to "preach" you anything. I was just responding to what you wrote earlier about people not considering that as also having a disease...

QUOTE(xxcrazyjewxx @ Sep 21 2004, 12:23 AM) who the hell would be pro anorexia an anorexic? well anyways i think it's wrong being an anorexic because it can weaken your heart if it doesn't already kill you. my friends' mom died a year ago from a heart attack when she was only 36. her heart was weak because she was anorexic when she was a teenager. |
