If you are in an eating disorder, then that is your choice. Please DON'T try to get others into it. There is nothing glamorous, helpful, exciting, or healthy about being in an eating disorder. What those horrible websites and celebrities don't tell you is that EDs have a really high death rate, and that although you may not see yourself as being "too thin", that most people look at you and see disfiguration. It also consumes your EVERY thought and action. If all you EVER want to think about is food, food, food, then maybe you do want to have an eating disorder. But when you get right down to it, an eating disorder really is an ADDICTION, just like alcoholism or drug use. It turns you into a different person, a monster. I know this firsthand; I am not just making up stuff. Your life is your choice; if you want to be isolated because of your ED, then don't try to pull others into a horrible, depression-ridden pit with you. You guys won't end up friends, but competitive enemies. Take care of your life and think about what you're doing. Is an obsession to be a certain way worth throwing away every other past and future meaningful thing that the world has to offer? ↓
