  • Dr. Phil is really annoying me here. I don't have an ED but the way this is presented just seems more exploitive than potentially helpful. Then again I already know that he's an opportunistic jerk and the guests here are really suffering from something that requires long term care, not fifty minutes of being gawked at by an audience.

  • ...."it's telling you your fat when your not, its telling you your not worth it WHEN YOUR NOT" anyone else catch that one?

  • Dr Phil is an idiot. She's not CHOOSING anything, she's ill.

  • "When I see myself I see someone who is...often bloated"

    poor, poor baby...

  • I am with Dr. Phil on almost everything, but I never get why he tries to talk logic to addicts or anorexics. Neither are in a logical state of mind. I read a study that said 28% of their anorexic subjects had some form of autism. also that the disease is not loss of appetite, but addiction to the chemicals of starving, usually following signif. weight loss. Wild.

  • Parental love is supposed to be unconditional, but in real life it so seldom is. And then we have to deal with the consequences for the rest of our life.

  • 25 pounds more and people would say she looks great. American culture is fat, but we worship thinness

  • If tv really adds ten pounds to this woman...I don't want to know what she looks like in person :{

  • @stormingaston OMG. exactly what I'm thinking when I watched this... I feel so bad for her... T-T

  • @MsTurn21 Yea I hope this actually helped her and I hope she's actually getting better.

  • I hate Dr. Phil, he's so condescending and puts words in people's mouths, but I'm watching because of Darlene, not because of him. I don't know when this was aired, but I would be amazed if she's still alive. What she feels is so true, and I never had anywhere near as serious an ED as her, but that's how I was starting to feel: the ED was in my head and I never once thought I was thin, or emaciated. My mind was completely detached from my actual body.

  • im 13 years old and already tried throwing up worked once but failed. i tried not eating at all and only chew gum worked for about 2 months then failed >.<

  • @vanessa0luves0u Well don't do that to yourself! :) Whoever you are, wherever you are, you are a beautiful child of God. Eat right, be healthy! Learn from this video and never give up on yourself! :)

  • @vanessa0luves0u so don't try again. been there, done that. not worth it.

  • ''walks 20 miles a day 500 stomach crunches followed by 1200 leg lifts''

    SAY WHAT?!

  • Dr. Phil pretends he knows what he's talking about - as if he knows exactly what's going on, but he clearly doesn't. This is not how you talk to someone who is severely anorexic. He is ridiculous.

  • Her face is actually really pretty when considering what she has been through..

  • OH MY GOD, WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS PEOPLE? HOW ARE DAY TODAY?

  • "It's tell you you're not Worth it When you're not!" LOL "When you're not"

  • @CentainSheridan seriously! What the hell is your problem? Her going on TV about her problem isn't for attention, its because shes trying to recover from her illness. If your that insensitive to say that she should die, your never gunna get married or have kids either because nobody likes an insensitive jerk!

  • Everyone who says dr.phil is being a jerk & not nice enough-look at that poor women, she doesn't need nice, she needs the truth. & the truth can hurt. He's not being mean he's trying to show her that everything she is saying about herself is wrong, he's showing her that she doesn't really wanna die & that she does deserve to be on this earth, he's doing it in a strict way so she'll get the message because nice won't help her.

  • shes saying she wants to die, and hes kind of pushing her...if that was me ide be slitting my wrist. not saying she should of course

  • I've encountered a book of a psychologist who, when a man is depressed and "just waiting to die" asks "Well, why don't you commit suicide then?", and then works on from the answer they give, kind of reminds them of what's important to them, what's their goal, what they are prepared to suffer for. It can be a relative who needs them, unfinished research, religion - anything. I wonder if it could work for persuading someone to get treatment for anorexia.

  • He's not telling her to just snap out of the disorder and be fine again. He's trying to take the first step by getting her to realize that she does need help, or her sister is going to bury her. Yes, it's very harsh, but do you really think in ten years her own family hasn't tried to coddle her through it already? Speaking as someone recovering from a similar disease, this is what she needs, even if it looks and sounds brutal. She needs to be shaken out of the world she built for herself.

  • How she injure her leg

  • this is really sad ._.

  • is dr phil actually a doctor ? seems not!

  • @CentainSheridan ? That's extremely stigmatizing. This is a mental disorder, and is very serious and should be treated as such.

  • @CentainSheridan

    Shame on you!

  • @CentainSheridan

    If you had Anorexia would you want people to say that about you!? Would you want someone to say forget about her, let her die, she lives for attention and being a victim? You are EXTREMELY rude, you should have grown up by now. Anorexia is a serious disease and it should not be spoken of in such a negative way. I hope your ashamed of yourself.

  • @CentainSheridan So, she doesn't have any worth because she is unmarried and has no children?

    You need to get your priorities straight.

  • @CentainSheridan What the heck is your f---in' problem? She this cuz she was controlled by her father. She has a mental problem too. Her father put her at a diet at 5!!!!

    So, no human deserves to die a painful way.

    If u hav nothin' nice to say, don't say anything at all

  • @CentainSheridan What have you done with your life? You think its ok to say those things? Is that your opinion towards all people with anorexia, or just her bcos shes on TV? Because Im pretty sure you could get on a talk show with the heading "I am a vile person, with a vile attitude towards people."

    She is grown, shes not married nor has kids..shes troubled.. But that doesnt mean she deserves to die, anymore than even someone like you!

    Urgh, we have to share the earth with ppl like you.Awful

  • Is Dr. Phil a psychiatrist or a psychologist or just a host who knows a bit about psychology? I've never seen his show before this, so if anybody knows, could they answer this question?

  • @darkallegiance666

    A psychologist, he obtained his PhD actually. You cant just give urself the title Dr. as a host.

  • @Masherin Thank you very much for the reply!! I am Australian & don't watch TV & just kind of stumbled on this series here, so didn't know. He sounds like he knows what he's doing, but I couldn't be sure, although I guess I should really have googled it. Thanks again. : )

  • @darkallegiance666

    You're welcome ;)

  • Dude you're an asshole i would never watch your show what is wrong with you!!!!

  • does anyone know how darlene is doing? I really hope that she is in an anorexia program. 

  • " How would you feel if your sister said 'I'm going to be anorexic.' " Yeah, okay. Because it works just like that, Dr. Phil. Idiot.

  • WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN?!?!?!

    He's trying to give her therapeutic help by asking her 'how do u thunk ur sister will feel when u die?' that's a load of bullshit

    Help her. Don't make her feel bad for having anorexia. She can't help that's she's mentally ill. The poor woman needs someone to Comfort her, not fill her mind with shit like that.

  • @ladymimirose Not that I'm defending Dr. Phil but sometimes coddling a person doesn't motivate them to change either.

  • drphil reminds me of my thrapist i hate my therapist. when ppl talk 2 me like he is talking 2 her it pisses me off. what pissed me the most tho was when he was talking about how hard it is for her SISTER, the reason u recover should be 4 YOURSELF. not your mom, dad, brother, 4 YOU! cuz even if u dont feel like it (i sure dont) u are worth getting better. dont live ur life because it might hurt someone else. if your only motivation to bother living is for another person that isnt a life at all. 

  • He's basically just putting Darlene's thoughts into words, and in the rudest way possible. He may think he's trying to help but ffs the woman is mentally ill! If I was Darlene, Dr. Phil would be the last place I would go for help.

  • That's what I feel and think if I were to die..

  • i had heard about silly AMERICAN SHOWS...wtf is he saying?????asking an anorexic woman that dies,''how you think your sister would feel if you die???????????'' omg....whats wrong with americans,i really believe that every...wrong,ill and weird...thing started from there...and im not racist!!! they are so weird! Emo's,starving fashion icons from hollywood,mutant foods,pc games and technology addictions....weird thinking of life and family generally...they think like ROBOTS!

  • "You got emotional vertigo right now". How does he come up with these things?

  • Walking 20 miles a day would take 10 hours, and she clearly walks slowly and with a limp because of her leg injury so it would probably take even longer. It is logically impossible that she could possibly walk 20 miles a day.

  • Wtf. Dr. Phil is such an asshole. He doesn't know shit. Now I remember why I never really liked this show. Darlene is clearly mentally ill. Does Dr. Phil think that giving her his little speech will make it better? No. I feel so bad for her, she is so polite and she just sits there and takes that crap from him when he doesn't even know what he's talking about.

  • dr.phil knows shit all, you can't just force someone to change their mind, he is a guilt tripping prick

  • 4:47 "its telling you your not worth it when your not" shouldnt he have said when you are

  • Oh I have lost all respect for Dr Phil after watching this :/ did he not do any anorexia research?! He just doesn't deal with the situation at all..

  • JFC Doctor Phil's responses are like textbook of what NOT to say to an anorexic... His statements are just enraging... anorexics KNOW that their logic is fucked... it just is... everything is saying is just upsetting not curing

  • "It's telling you your not worth it, when your not".

  • rassledassle82: Exactly!! That woman needs therapy, it's not that easy to just start eating, for example, or just decide to change your mind overnight

  • Chelsea Handler was right, Dr. Phil is an asshole. hahaha

  • He's so mean ~~`

  • im eating candy and chips while watching

  • @ilovebiebs95

    LOL! Same.

  • @ilovebiebs95 Holy shit i was just about to comment that i was eating chocolates leftover from valentines day while watching this haha

  • You can tell that this woman is not in control...she has a serious mental problem, and I hate how people trivialize it (Dr. Phil) and try to tell them to "snap out of it" so to speak...this woman needs PROFESSIONAL help; she can't just "snap out of it".

  • @rassledassle82 she needs to see that she has a disease though, i think that is what phill wants. not that she has to snap out of the annonrexia and has to start eating like hell.

  • @rassledassle82 eat a snickers bitch.

  • @thudec lol

  • @rassledassle82 that's why "DR" phil is not a real doctor. he's a psychopop charlatant.

  • One thing is how anorexia breaks down their body, but even worse is the way their mental logic crashes. Just listen to how she reasons like a child, and how Dr. Phill has got to go down to that same simple level to reason with her back. It truly is disturbing. When even their logic turns on them, no wonder it's be hard for them to agree to treatment!

  • Well if being on TV adds 10lbs. to you, thank god! She must look even worse in person. :(

  • I really hate when people think Eating Disorders are a choice, it's not. It's a serious disease. Anyone can get Anorexia, just like I did 5 years ago.. I thank my mother for getting me help. Without her, I would've been under the ground 5 years ago. People just don't go anorexic for "attention", it happens because of many reasons. Low self-esteem, the media, being called fat as a child, wanting to be thin, etc.. People just don't understand it and they say mean things that they shouldn't say..

  • ok here's a couple of questions for ya.....Why is it almost always the female gender that suffers eating disorders? And, why do females suffer body dysmorphia, plus other appearance based dysfunctions? My opinion, is pressure from many men and the media.

  • @SaranDobby or it is that woman are a little bit higher sensitive than man. And that females have a emotionally tougher puberity which causes a greater insecurity over there body.

  • @CaseFace1218 People believe in a personalized concept of morality and compassion, I'd hardly call that a disgrace. ;)

  • Are people seriously bringing africa into this? LOL How stupid, tell that to the fat overweight people like her sister , not to those who do not eat fucking hypocrites.

  • Well Atleast She Doesn't Have To Put On "Blush" Anymore...

  • Im watching this while eating like a pig, never felt so free to eat.

  • @iMajesticCx i'm doing that too. and when i'm done i'm gonna run downstairs to throw up

  • @shoponline831 good for u, keep it up

  • @CaseFace1218 Oh dear, you are a very bitter, twisted, immoral little sleazy, narrow-minded, barbaric piece of crap, aren't you?! People like you are a disgrace to humanity.

  • she doesn't want a wrinkled face? come on!...she has a wrinkled body and a hooked nose! Attention seekers all! Has she ever tought about the children in Eutopia? They don't have choice or time to think toys and dolls - never mind a wrinkled face!

  • @lfi18593 Eutopia? Utopia? A utopia is a perfect place.... like Heaven.  Do you mean Ethiopia?

  • someone know how she feel now? I hope her is healthy..

  • She is beautiful, honestly beautiful. Shame she is so stuck, wish her the best.

  • @CaseFace1218 Oh dear, we are a bitter little twisted ignoramus, aren't we!? Narrow-minded much!?

  • @CaseFace1218 shut the fuck up. Trolls like you just want losers like me to respond and get pissed off, so just shut the FUCK up.

  • This breaks my heart, and horrifies me. But amazes me at the same time of what the human body is capable of dealing with.

  • she has a reason she is angry her leg won't bend .

  • dr pphil seems uneducated about everything

  • the fact that he even suggested that her sister could 'become' anorexic shows how little he knows about eds.

  • Can't express how much I hate that stupid ass man.

  • SHE walks as fast as i do... she said it takes her five hours to walk twenty miles right that would be four miles per hour!!!! I DO THAT!... thats cool ive never heard of anyone else doin that!

  • I feel like Dr. Phil speeks in the same way to every visitor in his show, and that's the way my mum spoke to me when I was 3 years old, and did something I shouldn't have. He's not making good relations to his guest; I would probably left the show if I was spoken to like that.

  • Comment removed

  • Dr.Phil clearly doesn't know shit about EDs...

  • Anyone know what year this show aired?

  • @RaybRay89 2006 I think...

  • I hate Dr.Phil. He sounds like my mom, and my mom never thinks before she speaks. :I

  • i hate this f*ckin stupid man

  • What the fuck? Her purpose in life is to show people how fucked up you can get with an eating disorder. What a cunt. That's just made me so mad! AHHH

    He said her purpose is to show millions of people her life so the 'understand' what eating disorders do. Who is anyone to tell someone their purpose in life? You make your own purpose. He used her life against her to make her feel bad.

  • @musicalsgal2007 he said "Your brain is telling you that you're NOT worth it when you're not, so he means she IS worth it, see? :)

  • Comment removed

  • soo 4:46 "your brain is telling you that you are not worth it when you're not" ????

  • Dr.Paul is a meanie, but he is saying the truth.. He could at least say it nicely...

  • Dr. Phil is a jerk. He is so not helping this woman! I think he is kind of putting her down a little bit. Like she needs to hear this crap!

  • @87alsjth What he is saying is true, he is not holding back to say things as they are and sometimes that is what you need when you have an ED. For someone to tell you the shitty truth. I know it sounds strange, but sometimes it can help.

  • @KitteMissen Yeah but putting her down? She already has self esteem issues obviously so putting her down is just confirming what she believes to me true about herself.

  • @jackie287 when you're anorexic, it's much more important to lose the weight than to fuel your body. in fact, according to an anorexic, doing such a vigorous exercise actually energizes you as opposed to making you feel weaker. it's a contradiction, i know. but this is a very terrible and very confusing mental illness.

  • @xchromos -Thanks for explaining I was wondering that myself.I saw a woman on Dr. Phil 5'5 and 70lbs and she jogged everyday..I thought where does she have the energy..addicted to laxatives 9-14 a day plus 3-5 diet pills a day..I forgot what she did eat it was so little like 3 gummy bears and a flat round pita bread or something.

  • This is what happens when all people obsese about is weight. Oprah said it best the average woman is a size 14 in the US not a size 0.

  • Is it weird that this video makes me hungry?

  • @assassin7707 Nope lol.

  • dr.phil, do you not understand this disease...

  • she actually is a beautiful woman! if she put on some weight she will look even better. She has a gorgeous face

  • exactly! I understand exactly what she is saying about feeling like your body and mind are 2 separate things

  • how does she have the energy to walk 20 miles a day?

  • she looks good to me

  • @gregorygutkin are you stupid ? you can see her bones and she's walking twenty miles a day, using the little energy she has left. she doesn't even eat properly. what are you thinking ?

  • Does any1 know if this woman's still alive, Darlene?

  • phil  was good here

  • @EmJayKay17 it's not heaven if all you wanna do is work out and not eat. eating and not working out is what she's terrified of.

  • Ya'll are all saying shit about Dr phill. Did u ever think that if he never said that stuff she would ever learn and think about what shes doing?

    what has to be said has to be said so deal. the poor girl :(

  • Dr Phil; not helping anyone. I wish he'd just shut up.

  • "It's telling you your okay when your not, It's telling you that your not worth it when your not..." wait a second...

  • does anyone know how she is now?

  • surely they can section her now. then she doesn't have a choice

  • @EmJayKay17 You clearly have no understanding of eating disorders.

  • She's actually really pretty. She'd be extremely beautiful if she gained weight

  • "Its telling you that you're okay when you're not and its telling you that you're not worth it when you're NOT" lmao 4:48 hhahhahhaa

  • Jennifer COULD be beautiful if she puts on weight.

  • dr. phil annoyes me

  • If I don't eat for a day, I get light headed :s how the hell does she manage 20 miles a day on that little food? :s

  • Dr. Phil is stupid and useless.

    But this anorexic woman is a very interesting person...

  • @klimtoka ur stupid ya dumb cunt dr phil helps ppls wat do u do?

  • @kayla12317 No, Dr Phil makes sensational TV programmes exploiting people who are ill.

  • @KristofskiKabuki he gets them professinal help.. untill u start helping people like dr phil, sit down n STFU

  • i cant watch this anymore this is so depressing...  bullying is wrong!! sometimes i do bully ppl but im not gonna do it anymore.. there are ppl more sensitive than others:( Godplsforgiveme

  • their dad is awful. i hope he's happy at what the emotional abuse has done to his kids. rest in peace awful man.

  • is Dr Phil a professional? (this is the first time i've ever came across him)

  • Arghh!

    No need for treatment!Juz stuff her with food till she's at an amount of weight that is healthy n stop her from walking n exercising!

  • anyone know if they are okay now?

  • Her face is pretty. She just needs to gain weight desperatley.

  • you idiots. anorexia is not about not having an appetite its about starvation. even if they did smoke a bowl they would just suppress the hunger.

  • @APiece7ofheavenX idk...maybe a few bowls will get that mind set changed by extreme munchies!!

  • Just smoke a bowl.. you'll eat

  • I don't know how she walks twenty miles a day on what she eats???

  • @jackie287 your body can break down fat, muscle, and organ tissue (the latter being the primary fuel for an anorexic) for energy. I believe its called ketoacidosis but not positive.

  • @jackie287

    i'd faint

  • Dr. Phil should know that she has to recover for herself not for her sister or anyone else... it is her life and she needs to be in a hospital

  • @181lollipop the idea is just to get her to go to treatment, sometimes betering urself for the sake of urself isnt enough for ppl to make the changes you need to make. Once she actually starts treatment tht will become clear.

    #psychmajor

  • @181lollipop some people have to start by doing for others before they do for themselves. she started her eating disorder because of her father, so maybe if she does it for her sister then its a starting point.

  • Dr. Phil should know that she has to recover for herself not for her sister or anyone else... it is her life and she needs to be in a hospital

  • That is sad to know how depression works... 

  • I don't know anything about anorexia or eating disorders but isn't it cruel to make her feel responsible for her sister's feelings like she's not going through enough pain and tell her she is in control when she obviosly isn't?

  • @purplelilferret

    haha, wow, i heard that too. fuck 'doctor' phil

  • @purplelilferret. I heard him say that too WTF lol0.0

  • Did he just say She wasn't worth it? O_O

  • I am not in ANY way stating this is good or near acceptable, But the anorexic one looks about 15 yrs younger "face" wise than her sister. Heck I'm 19 and my face looks older than hers! D: so maybe, just MAYBE fasting for 1-2 days a month can keep us younger :3 (NOTE: 1-2 days not 1-2 months D:) WASH YOUR FACE, EAT YOUR GREENS, BRUSH BEFORE BEDTIME AND STAY AWAY FROM BOYS! <3 (Lol. yeright to the boy part)

  • @purplelilferret Just eat right, exercise, don't smoke, or drink too much and you'll have a youthful appearance.

  • @purplelilferret NO, its the opposite!!! The anorexic one looks years OLDER!!! Can't you see her leathery skin and sunken eyes? She looks like she's 70 years old while the other sister looks 45.

  • I hope that wont happen to me my sister is anorexic too

  • he doesnt know what he is talking about.... lol

    

  • @fushadragon

    haha! yeahh I heard that too

    I was like HAH! stupid you just said she wasn't!

  • Your not woth it when your not... Good one dr. Phil, dumbass

  • They need to strap her down and feed her. :]
