I've been diagnosed with an eating disorder (anorexia). People like me generally don't do it because we just want to be thin, we do it because we need to find some sort of grasp or control over something, so we chose food. Lots of people say that we're stupid because we do it just because we want to be thin, I'd never do this in a million years if i just wanted to be thin, it's a cry for help... And it's most certainly not something that can go away overnight, on average it takes someone 6-7 years, to fully recover from an eating disorder.

Take it from one who's been there, an eating disorder is NOT something you want!! Eating disorders can cause damage to your heart, esophagus, stomach, intestines, teeth (they can make your teeth fall out), and many other body parts. They can be fatal. They make a person's appearance go downhill rapidly. To this day I have stomach and digestive problems because of an eating disorder. Once I ended up in the emergency room with an esophageal spasm, a spasm of the esophagus, because of purging. Please do not go down that path.
