I'm sorry, but WikiAnswers is meant to be a place where questions are answered that are there to help or educate or assist a person. Suggesting a website that encourages anorexia (a potentially fatal and life-endangering disease) would not be helping, but would be promoting this dangerous life style.
I'm sorry, but WikiAnsers is a site designed to provide helpful knowledge and information. Suggesting sites that promote anorexia (a dangerous and often deadly eating disorder) would not be helpful and WikiAnswers cannot take part in such actions. Thank you.
I don't know any chat rooms, but I would reccommend reading the blog Dying to Be Thin, at dyintobethin.blogspot.com
The definition of Pro-ana is someone who promotes the eating disorder anorexia nervosa. There are many pro-ana organizations who offer their support for anorexics.
"Pro-ana", or sites that glorify and encourage anorexia, can be trigerring because of what they say. They provide tips and suggestions on how to become anoroexic, how to avoid food, how to hide weight loss, how to properly exercise, and provide encouragment. This can often be dangerous as it turns people towards anorexia, or encourages anorexic to develop worse into their disorders.
pro ana actually... its the promotion of anorexia
I'm sorry, but WikiAnswers is a site dedicated to educating others. Promoting Pro-Anorexia, or "pro ana", websites (encouraging anorexia, a dangerous and often deadly eating disorder) would not be helpful, and WikiAnswers cannot do that. Thank you.
Basic facts: Pro-Ana braclets are red, Pro-Mia bracelets are blue. (Anorexia and Bulimia, just to clarify). Pro-Mia blues go on the right wrist. Most Pro-Ana reds go on the left wrist. Struggling pro-ana's might put the red on the wrist the eat with to remind them not to eat. (For left-handed anorexic, it doesn't make a difference.
The website Prettythin is one such Pro Ana online website. One can get help from a dedicated agent from the official website if one requires the help.

It is usually just referred to as "anorexia" or, in slang-terms, "ana".
Hi there! The prefix "pro" means you are in favor of something (in this case, either "mia" or "ana"). "Mia" is short for bulimia, and "ana" is short for anorexia. Both bulimia and anorexia are serious eating disorders- Generally, bulimia is characterized with extreme over-eating (binge) and then purge via laxatives or vomitting. Anorexia on the other hand is characterized with extreme under-eating and the thought that they are fat when actually, are emaciated. Basically, the difference between pro-mia and pro-ana is that someone who is pro-mia is a supporter of bulimia and the latter is a supporter of anorexia.
They likely changed their terms of service like many other sites such as Tumblr to not allow pro-eating disorder content, such as thinspo, pro-ana, or pro-mia. The society was likely banned or disbanded. This change to many sites is because of the perceived danger of promoting eating disorders to young people at risk, many of which are harmful and even deadly. If you wanted to bring back the community you would first have to look at the sites terms of service. If they explicitly ban pro-eating disorder content, you will have to move your society elsewhere to avoid being banned or disbanded.
