I look at myself in the full length mirror, examning every inch of my body, going over every flaw i have. I cringe in disqust at what i see. Thighs that are too big and jiggle when i walk. A tummy that juts out and flabby arms. Chubby cheeks and dull green eyes. Stringy brown hair that falls down to my waist. Putting my hands on my fat stomach i start to cry. I just want to be beautiful

A girl looks in the mirror and sees an illusion of herself. Her thighs are to small to jiggle and the only thing that juts out are her ribs. Her arms are slim and her cheecks are sunken in. Her eyes are bright green and her wavey brown hair flows down to her small waist, she's beautiful. With hands on her flat stomach and tears staining her cheecks she's blinded by societys view of beautiful. She decides to skip dinner like she's been doing for the past too months. With only an apple in her stomach she starts to workout. unaware that she's slowly killing herself.

There is nothing beautiful about a disease like anorexia (which i have suffered with for 8 years) its things like this that cause people to treat anorexia like a joke or a beauty statement....anorexia kills people, makes you want to kill yourself most days, destroys your health, social life, love life, and your family is embarrassed by you....its not cute to paint anorexia as this tragic beautiful thing, its tragic to be anorexic because it really ruins your life, but beautiful? no....anorexia is not beautiful at all

you've misinterperted my message which is not my fault, it is NOT something like this that causes people to treat it like a joke or beuty statement so do not make my writting seem like that because that me off, i am awake what it does to people and the the point of it was that the girl is beutiful no matter what , weather she's anorexic or not she will be beautiful and even though she's suffering from something awful she is still beautiful because i belive girls who suffer from anything along these lines are still beautiful even though some people think other wise, if you do not think girls suffering from disease are beatiful then that is your opinion but please to not insult me or my work thank you

i have had anorexia for 8 years-I never said girls who are anorexic are not beautiful, I said the way you wrote this sounds like you are glamourizing anorexia...girls "want" to be anorexic-seriously-I am not attacking you, I am just tired of people making anorexia look like its going to make people beautiful-people with anorexia are smart, and beautiful, and talented and unique, i never said they weren't-what i am saying is that its wrong to even make anorexia look poetic-its an ugly disease....it shouldn't be made to look appealing, whether that was your intention or not

well that's how your statement came off because you are talking about how ugly it is and everyone knows that but the point was to just say that you are still beautiful not make anorexia itself seem beutiful, i'm sorry if this offended you or got you upset and i apologize for being defensive but i don't make sicknesses and bad habbits seem glamorizing. being someone who cut themseleves for years i get angry when people make cutting seem like it's no big deal.
