When the skies are looking bad my dear,
& your heart's lost all its hope,
after dawn there will be sunshine,
& all the dust will go

Telling a skinny person that they are too skinny and that they should go "eat a sandwich"
is just as offensive as telling a fat person they are too fat, and that they shoud eat less
Skinny shaming is a real problem, it happens all the time, in the most ignorant ways
People accuse skinny people of being anorexic or starving themselves
Yea, people have anorexia and people do starve themselves
But its just plain wrong and insulting to assume all thin people are thin because they are unhealthy
lots of thin people have a high metabolism, they are skinny due to their genetics, gaining weight
might be really difficult for them
Lots of people play sports and are thin because they have a profession that requires them to be skinny
this doesn't mean they are unhealthy
skinny doesn't mean anorexic
anorexic doesn't mean just being skinny
and telling people like this to just go eat a sandwich and that will solve the supposed problem, is ignorant
because it actually doesn't solve anything, it just shows how rude people are

Girl wanting to lose weight: I wish I could be anorexic so I could get skinny-I am so fat, I want to be skinny! I want to stop eating
Me: I wish I could record what you just said, so I could replay it and maybe you would realize how unbelievably stupid you just sounded by saying that
It is NOT cute at all, to say you want anorexia-if you say you want to be anorexic, you have obviously never experienced what its like to be starving, angry, paranoid, hopeless, tired and defeated all the time....if you are that desperate to lose weight, then your issues run deeper than problems with your body

What pro ana girls on tumblr think anorexia is: thigh gaps, collar bones, looking like a delicate ballerina, wearing short skirts and crop tops, being hipster, smoking to dull hunger pains, never eating a thing, and somehow remaining delicate and pretty, apparently people who are pro-ana think anorexic people live on water and air.....
What anorexia actually is: insomnia, depression, suicidal thoughts, hunger pains that never go away, dull eyes, hair falling out, bones breaking, nails breaking, skin drying out, hating the way your body looks, when you starve, you are miserable, when you eat you are miserable, no matter how thin you get, you are disgusted by your body (in fact, the lower your weight drops, the more you grow to hate yourself) hiding your body in sweaters and baggy clothes, heart palpitations, kidney failure, getting shouted at by parents, crying in your sleep, getting left out of social situations, losing friends, getting treated like you are damaged goods-how can people glamourize anorexia?

I wish people would understand that just because you start watching your weight, looking at thinspiration, and eating less at meals, doesn't mean you are developing an eating disorder...Eating disorders have biological and genetic roots. Who knows why they only affect certain people, but they do....People with eating disorders are born with traits that make them more vulnerable to developing an eating disorder....Not all eating disorders are caused from being teased, or bullied. Not all eating disorders are caused because the person automatically thinks they are fat (when my anorexia started, it wasn't because I thought I was fat) I am naturally skinny, and I never woke up one day and said "i'll just be anorexic today" It doesn't work like that....when people develop eating disorders, they do not realize they are developing them until its gone on for a while....this is why girls online proudly proclaiming they are "becoming anroexic or trying to be anorexic" really make me mad....you do not try to be anorexic, you do not force yourself to have disordered behavior-and if you are forcning yourself, then its not really an eating disorder

Do guys think Anorexic girls are gross or ugly? I hear guys saying that they do online sometimes, but I wonder if guys really wouldn't want to be with someone who had a disorder like anorexia....if that is true, that is sad....anorexia already causes me to feel really isolated and alone and bad about myself, it would be a shame to know that other people treat it like it makes you unattractive or unappealing....

It really offends me when people call skinny people "anorexic". Anorexia Nervosa is a really serious eating disorder, its a mental illness, not a body type-A picture of a thin person doesn't equal anorexia. A thin person who is a picky eater, doesn't equal anorexia. Don't accuse someone of suffering with this horrible condition. Unless you know for a fact that person is diagnosed anorexic by a doctor, you have no room to throw this word around and judge people, and use the word anorexia as an insult. Some people are naturally thin and healthy, being thin doesn't mean a person starves themselves. Anorexia is NOT how a person looks-Anoreixa is mental, in a person's brain-Someone commented on a picture of me one time-they said I didn't "look" like I was anorexic-they said, "but you are smiling and you look happy and normal, how can you be anorexic?" I wanted to say to that person "obviously you don't understand what anorexia is-its a hidden problem-its really not as obvious as people think-My body is very thin, but most people don't look at me and think "she's anorexic" Mostly they look at me and just think I am thin-I don't want people to notice me for having anorexia-Anorexia is a really awful, dangerous, shameful thing to suffer with. I hate when stupid girls online just claim they have stopped eating, and that they are anorexic-If you are actually anorexic, you don't brag about it or act happy about it-It is not a happy or beautiful or romantic disease-its a very serious disease-it actually kills more people than any other mental disorder....I just had to get this out there, that being skinny and actually being "anorexic" are two completely seperate issues.

Last year, I found out my good friend (who I met, while in treatment for my eating disorder a few years ago) died of her eating disorder. Her name was Kelly. She had Anorexia Nervosa, like me. She loved art and she loved to write, like me. We talked to each other on the phone a lot. Sadly, because we lived in different states, I didn't get to see her much....that didn't change the special connection I felt with her. I didn't realize her eating disorder had gotten so bad....I had no idea...A girl told me through facebook that Kelly died of Anorexia....I was shocked, I couldn't believe it. I still can't believe it. Losing my friend has made me want to fight my own illness even more. I try to educate people about eating disorders-they are nothing to romanticize, they are nothing to envy or joke about or wish to have. There are sevreal types of eating disorder diagnosis, they affect each person differently...All eating disorders are serious, all eating disorders can cause health problems and even death. Having an eating disorder happens to people at any weight. Having an eating disorder doesn't automatically make you skinny. You don't have to "look" sick, to be sick. You don't have to be emaciated or thin, to die from an eating disorder

The number of times people have asked me if I think I am fat......
I have no clue,
I have lost count, because I get asked this question so frequently
For the record, I am naturally skinny, and a size 0. I have been naturally thin my whole life. Just because I have anorexia,
doesn't mean I think I am fat-My perception of my body is distorted, which means I don't see myself accurately-it doesn't mean i think things like "oh god, I am so fat" because I don't think that at all...

I wish people would realize having Anorexia doesn't mean you NEVER eat
Having Anorexia means you have a problem in your brain that never goes away
Having Anorexia means you are slowly destroying your body, and feel powerless to stop
Having Anorexia means being isolated, scared, afraid and ashamed
Having Anorexia means getting judged, not sick enough (your a fake) too sick (your an attention seeker)
Bottom line is, Anorexia is the most deadly mental disorder, that gets treated like a complete joke
Whenever someone says anorexic people never eat anything, I want to scream at them
Anorexic people DO EAT-we have to, or we die
Most people with eating disorders are not wasting away to nothing and living on only only water and gum
That is a totally inaccurate stereotype.....Anorexia has no face, no race, no age, no gender
It can happen to anyone, but this doesn't mean it happens to everyone
People who say they "want" anorexia make me mad
If I could give this disease to someone for a few weeks so they could see what it feels like
I gaurantee they would change their mind in an instant about wanting to be anorexic

You cannot just become anorexic by visiting a thinspiration site
You cannot just become bulimic by reading stupid tips
You cannot force a disorder that starts in your brain, on yourself
You cannot just eat less at dinnner, stare at thinspiration pictures for hours, and proclaim you are "anorexic"
You cannot aquire mental disorders by force
Thinspiration makes no sense
Pro-ana and Pro-Bulimia makes no sense
What is disturbing is how many people are drawn to it
Most thinspiration pictures are photoshopped
Stop worrying about whether or not you have a freaking thigh gap, or whether or not you are a size 0
Stop worrying about how many guys you think don't like you, or how many girls you don't measure up to, stop saying "when i am skinny, I will be perfect" cause that's a lie!
Go out and do something beautiful, and influential, make music, write poetry, make art, write stories, write a play, influence people, change someone's life, make someone's life better, not worse

so I we had to do a presentation on someone who helps you in life. most people did Jess Ennis or Nelson Mandela (and I have nothing against that because they're great) but I did Evanna Lynch. when I said that she was an actress I practically saw everyone in the room roll their eyes, which didn't help because I was nervous about going up and talking infront of everyone anyway - but then I said that she helped me get through life because she beat anorexia and the whole room almost stopped breathing. I explained that she managed to beat anorexia and that was amazing, but then to carry on and fulfill her dreams was inspirational. when I had finished my teacher started clapping and she said that it took a lot to stand up and talk about something personal. then she said that her sister had anorexia. and then she said that she knew how much anorexia would take it's toll on the whole family and everyone in the anorexics' life, but that they didn't notice because too often they were being bullied or they were just too focused on everything that happened and everything they ate. I hadn't told her that I was anorexic - but it meant a lot. for someone to not judge me on that was amazing. there needs to be more people like my head of year c:

So I went to a Halloween party and I didn't really eat anything at the party and this friend of mine came up to me and said this: "Come on, don't be an anorexic." He has no idea how much that ticked me off. You just don't say that to people, I mean really. That was not okay.

Confession #3
I used to be anorexic. I've overcome it, but I still have thoughts about not eating now and then.

The next person to tell me I have to 'eat more' or 'stop starving myself' is going to get a backhand across the face. No, I am not anorexic and I do not have an eating disorder. I eat plenty and excuse me if I don't eat when I'm not hungry. Pîss off.
