Anorexia Nervosa

It is usually people with low self esteem, people who have had a lot of bad relationships so they try too hard to be accepted, or people who don't see that movie stars and models are unnaturally thin, so they think they are fat.

In the full throws of anorexia the body regresses to an almost fetal state. They stop menstrating, the body is smaller and looses any typical female shapes, and even grow lanugo, a very fine type of hair that covers the body in utero.

Anorexia nervosa is a serious eating disorder characterized by restriction of food intake. It can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances due to inadequate fluid and nutrient intake. Diarrhea is not a typical symptom of anorexia, but dehydration from poor nutrition can result in digestive issues.

Overeaters Anonymous welcomes individuals with all forms of disordered eating, including anorexia and bulimia, because the focus is on addressing the underlying emotional and behavioral issues related to food and body image, rather than just weight. The program offers support, tools, and a community for anyone struggling with food issues, regardless of their size or specific eating disorder.

Anorexia nervosa develops through classical conditioning mostly because they feel that they are not thin enough in a society that demands perfection and perfection is being thin, and 'beautiful' (despite the fact that everyone has their own idea of beautiful). Anorexia nervosa develops through operant (operate, as you put) because they feel they have the need to maintain this image and the difficulty of dealing with the consequences of this 'perfection' drives them even further over the brink because they deal with these negative feelings by taking it out on their own bodies.

If they (meaning doctors, trained medical professionals, psychologists, ect.) still believe that you may be a threta to yourself or others, are not yet medically stable, are too involved in "old" / dangerous habits, and so on, they can legally hold you and prevent you from going home.

The prefix in anorexia is "an-", which means "without" or "lack of".

To support someone with anorexia, it's important to offer empathy and understanding. Encourage active listening, validate their feelings, and help them see their worth beyond their weight or appearance. Offer professional support and resources to guide them towards seeking help and recovery.

Since we are not God, we can't know for sure.

However, the Book of Job gives indications as to how to grow through suffering. And suffering is very hard to go through when one is rigid.

Then again, the most rigid people tend to be rigid in religion.

However, since if there is a God, He seems to be able to deal with seven billion people, give or take. Hence, God must be holy flexible.

And that is the highest lesson of Job, that God who is holy and flexible, desires that we humans grow to be like him: holy and flexible.

This is discussed at length in www.inthatdayteachings.com .

However, this message is unpopular. Who wants to be considered religious and rigid?

Hence, this mature message is often deleted by subsequent readers, who might want to stay rigid and religious, and not allow others to consider the possibility of becoming holy and rigid.

Usually, the rigid righteous win the fight of who speaks, so... be happy if you read this before deletion... :)

I would tell someone right away. I know it is harder said than done, but i knew someone who tried to commit suicide because of this. If you tell someone, they will not think any less of you. They just want the best for you. I would tell a mom or someone who is easy to talk to. Just remember. People are there for you. I am here for you, your family is here for you, and God is here for you.

Have you ever felt hungry and felt crabby? Yeah.
