  • anorexia is a disease that kills.... not a beauty trend to brag about.

  • ..that's creepy..

  • ...amazingg

  • this is exactly how i feel, i don't want to feel like this. it hurts me inside knowing that i have hurt all my family, but ii just want to feel beautiful and be skinny, but ii see fat feel ugly, my mother and father make me eat :(, and i go to the qym and burn everything ii eat of that day, just to feel beautiful, people say ' you are to skinny, you are gorgeous' ii want to see what they see, ii get dizzy spells and tired ness, ii know i need to eat but ii feel guilty!

  • OMG! this is no joke at all..

    ive suffered with anarexia for almost 2 years, and this whole video explains the feeling all the way through,. perfectly.

    NO JOKE!.

    your feelings inside "is this video",.and watching it, you know its right, and its telling you the truth, but yet any anorexia person will turn there head and ignore it just as ana wants you to.

    i did. but i still know im doing wrong, but i still will follow the rules of ana.

  • @illyisdead66 This made me sad.. it's so true and describes how you feel.

  • -People with slim bodies take their bodies for granted. There's some people out here who feel un-normal and just want to fit in... : \

  • Dear God.. this is really horrible! i have no words for this.. it's just... my god.

  • Wow, ana surely is a sadistic manipulating Bitch, amirite?

  • This is from a harry potter fanfiction called "Dying to be thin" for anyone who wants to read it. It's really great! It's a Draco/Hermione love story !:D

  • <3 ana

  • I have been in "recovery" for almost 2 years & while I have gained weight & returned to a "healthy range" I will never truly break free.... Even though I know I was too thin at 96lbs I will never stop missing it... Suprsingly, I am 36 years old & first met "ana" at the age of 31 following a serious episode of post partum depression. This can happen to ANYONE & once it hits you will fight it for life.

  • @mclarsa I am suprised that you havent fully recovered, there was thousands girls in my clinic, that have fully recovered, my sister and I have fully recovered. It is possible

  • ana buddy anyone

  • @13swim13 we dont ask for ana buddies on this site

  • I have this letter and every detail is perfect . I belong to ana .

  • im suffering from bulima rite now!!! this video is so true!!! but some of my friends know and trying 2 get me 2 stop!!! im almost all ways sick and my hole body hurts!! so i know the pain it is w/ being balimc so i say that no one should b like dis!!!! it just hurts u and hurts ur friends and famaily and then ur all alone!!! so yeah!! :(

  • @4everAlice you can recover and get rid of this pain, it is possible

  • i have just recently fallen into ana... this video is very accurate

  • Lawlzko, I get that you are young an uneducated, but please don't make rash judgments like that. Again, unless you've actually experienced it, then you just DON'T know, and you can blabber on all you want about how much you do know- but it won't be worth shit because you're not the one who nearly died or saw your mom fall to tears in front of you, wishing like hell that you could do something but being physically and mentally unable because your mind is giving you a distorted view of the world.

  • And yes, it IS an illness, not just "wanting to be thin" or else 90% of America would be anorexic. Don't speak ignorant words about something unless you've actually gone through it. Karma is a real bitch you know.

  • Ugh, I've been battling with anorexia (to the point of being hospitalized and kicked out of school until I was healthy) for 6 years now.

    And even I agree that the idiots saying "Ana is my best friend" or "I need her" are ATTENTION SEEKING prats.

    If you REALLY suffered through this terrible illness then you'd know that "Ana" is not your friend and you DON'T need "her". Because IT only destroys your life and the lives of those around you.

  • I have suffered Ana and Bulima for years now. This video is true.

  • this video is wrong, i watch thinspo myself and hav an ed so ino what was said in the video has truth, but that video is sick, and it is only making people feel worse as it really only gives you negatives about yourself, this video should be removed

  • i love ana regardless, she is and always will be mah bestfran.

  • the people crying over how they 'need ana' are attention-seeking little prats, if you ask me.

    i mean seriously.

    if you know it's bad, you know it's killing you, it brings no good to your life. why the fuck do you continue?

    Anorexia is more unattractive than Obesity.[sp?]

    "Mental illness" my ass. You just want to be skinny :\

    Anyone who would like to call me a douche or an asshole for this, feel free.<3

  • i dnt think ur a douche or an asshole but tht doesnt mean that you are right

    your just uneducated about such illness' and therefore cannot understand, i mean i highly doubt tht years a science is wrong and you are right tht all pl with ed's just want to be thin and thts it

    jesus open your eyes and don't be so close minded to suffering that you either do not care about or don't want to know about

  • close minded?How the fuck does making yourself look like bones wrapped in a overly-large sack of mush, make any sense to anyone? It's simply people looking for another way to get attention, and nothing more. Of course 'science' is going to agree. you can market that shit and in turn, they get to fund REAL research instead of bullshit like this.

    Im not saying anyone with 'ana' is just attention-seeking. Im saying that anyone who claims they 'want to stop but cant' is bullshitting.

  • making yourself sick becomes like a habbit or an addiction, something might happen that will triger a feeling to make someone want to purge, just the same for cutters. as for ana people get so deep into that the fear of living any different can scare tht crap out of them because to them it can define who they are, would you want to stop doing or being what ever makes you you?

  • if mine or anyone else's life, for that matter, fell so low that purging or cutting defined their life. That would be sad. Yes I would stop. That's pointless, as i said before. even if it is what you say it is, why start in the first place? You know going into it that it will fuck our life up...They chose to do it. I just dont feel sorry for someone who put themself in a bad position that they can get out of and had no reason to begin in the first place.

    Thanks for not jumping my case, btw :)

  • i do see what ur sayin about them chosing to start, and in the case of bulimia i think you hav more of a point, but with ana many people start on just a simple normal diet, and wen they hav lost a lil like the feeling and continue to lose weight, by the time they relaise if ever, that they hav lost to much or have developed an unrealistic goal weight it is at that point that they may feel they do not know who they are without this illness.

  • and as you said that, it is sad that people feel an illness defines their life, many people who develop these illness will have experienced abuse, although not always, and the abuse could still be going on so it could be away of coping, there are so many reasons as to why people start and feel they can't stop or don't want to stop it is unfair to label those pl in a negative way

    not sure if all of tht made sense, if it dnt srry

  • Comment removed

  • She does. It's a part of the illness, anorexia. Because anorexia is a mental illness. It's just like there was a person like that, living inside your mind. It's seriously jut like that. Uhh...

  • I perfectly know what anorexia is, as I'm living it and I'm fighing against it.

    That's why I think that a "video-letter" like this doesn't help coping and struggling at all.

  • Ah, you're right about that, it probably doesn't help... But that's not what you said in your comment, I think.

  • Im crying...So Bad.

    Im only starting and even though i know whats going to happen to me in the end, I still keep on going, little by little day by day...Im scared but excited to. Im already loosing my friends, im turning into nothing, its like all i have is ana to turn to now.

  • I know how you feel. She seems like she is the only person who is still there for you. If you need a friend, I will be here for you.

  • I have been anorexic for 11 years, and I have been is recovery and relapse several times. I need Ana, she is my best friend. Keeps me strong. I feel so alone.

  • sometimes i wish i could escape but id be nothin without ana, i need her...

  • "kristengall45" where did you find this letter, do you remember that?

  • i hate it wen they tell me im not fat :(

    ana's done too much to me

    no one else knows though....

  • i hate ana, but i need her...

  • ana is fat!

  • Comment removed

  • Iv had this voice in my head for a while.. at first it wasnt much.. It's Ana isnt it..?

    She's the only one who understands me, she keeps me strong.. tellin me to just leave it.. leave that disgusting food on ur plate.. tell your Mum you ate in town.. but I know I never did..

    She's taking control over me.. I would be risking losing my best friend for Ana..

    Its either Lottie or Ana..

    Ana needs to go.. I need to get rid of her.. But I can't.. Because I still know that I cant cope without her..

  • im looking for a ana buddy

    plz write to me if you would like to by mine.

    It's not important where you are from :D

  • I will

  • Letter for me.

    I'm fat and I know that.

    I cant turn around.

    No one saw trough my games.

  • story of my life

    ana is my best friend

    i am a stupid fat cow who needs to loose mroe weight

    i am disgusting and shuld be ashamed

    my parents say they love me but they dont because i am a disguting stupid girl and deserve nothing

    my parents say they wont love me more if i am thin but they lie! everybody lies saying i am not fat when i am!

    xo

  • Ana already has me up until 1:25,

    I can't get out anymore.

    i love her.

  • Bit of an attention seeker?

    Whats with the name

  • I cried.

    She is describing my life, but I love her nontheless.

    She's so beautiful. I'm so sorry for letting her down.

  • what song ? (;

  • Sophie by Eleanor McEvoy.

    You should really read video descriptions..

  • I hate to be fat.

    thin is beautiful.

  • @FCBHeart92 wats not beautiful is this mind set. you are beautiful. you just cant see it. doesnt mean others cant. why r u trying to show off to others? everyone has beauty within.

  • i love her its my life style i have chose it i dont like to be fat bust how called the song?its a beautiful song!

  • this letter rules me... I am "her" slave. Food disgusts me, but I crave it... and my friends or my ex friends they lie so much and it makes me so mad I'll tell them I dont want a piece of their brownie...why not? they ask... doesnt it look like I've had enough brownies I reply... you look fine... gah I wish they would be truthful... it might not make me hate myself so much... I obviously look bad enough for them to lie... I look like a cow and ppl back me up without knowing it...

  • no, don't say that.

  • I am obsessed with this letter because it is really how i live my life! :,,,( I actually just gave the copy that i carry with me everywhere i go to my therapist last week and now i hate myself for it and want it back!

  • It makes me cry.. It's about me, too.. Thanks

  • wow, super freaky

  • I live by Ana's letter to me. Its a life style that i chose and i cant turn back. And i chose not to, no matter wat ppl say to me i will not go back looking like a fat cow

  • the thing is, you probably never looked like a fat cow :(

  • I have seen this letter before, I have it saved on my computer.

  • I live by that lettter too. I got better for a few years but the truth is ana never leaves she came back and who know's i think she's here to stay!

  • I heard of this "Ana"-Thing a few days ago in the TV... Man, it is shocking to really read this letter.

    I mean... it is... I don't know. It can't be true but nonetheless there are so many people out there doing "what she says".

    It makes me really sad...

    Great song though!

  • I live by this letter.... :[

  • this is so sad.... mostly cuz its all true with people like me

  • gives me chills every time

  • whoever wrote this text (dont tell me Ana), who does she think she is ? To talk to people as if they were nothing, losers, idk

    PEOPLE WHERE IS YOU PRIDE ???

  • FUCK you! YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE no IDEA WHAT IT IS LIKE!!!

  • you're right i dont know what its like and i didnt want to hurt anyone or something; i just dont understand it at all.

  • the person who wrote it wrote as how they feel ana is to them how they feel she took over there life not as a guide or put down to other people

  • so i dont understand it, whats it about

  • The 'letter' in the video is written in the point of view as Anorexia. It's turning the disease into a character by using personification. The letter is 'addressed' to a girl. It's a metaphor for what's going on in an anorexic girls head, what her own mind is telling her as anorexia starts to control her.

  • this video is so true evrythn that i would have thought as important seems as if its in now on a seperate plain! i cant find interest in anythin else! i couldnt connect with my friend yesterday because all that was on my mind was my weight!she wouldn talk to me d rest of d night because i didnt want to eat anythn up until recently i hv been able to lead a normal life but now ana has taken over my mind completely i feel seperated 4m everyone else and ana is all i hv but shes all i want in lyf...

  • please get help, I buried my sister last year after she was tortured by anorexia for eleveenyears. Your family and friends do love you and want to help. My sister realised this too late

  • this is so true .Ana just grabs onto u and never lets u go until you fight back with all your strength its hard because its like she owns you ....until u get help

  • the name of the song? ???

  • sophie by lisa loeb

  • its not by lisa loeb, its by Eleanor Macevoy

  • thesong is called Sophie but its by Elaenor McEvoy not Lisa Loeb

  • sophie by elanor something

  • Who knew Ana was such a BITCH. She can only be Satan's sister.

  • Wow after reading that i feel that was really very intease!!!!!!

    i Hate it,but Ana is as powerful as she says she is.The part that sucks is once Ana has a hold on you she's not gonna let you go.

  • its a hard fight and a long struggle...

    sometimes i feel like ana wont let me go,

    but its i who can't let go...

  • i wish i could fight back...

    but im not ready

  • You can do it. Please, keep trying. Lots of people know what it's like and can lend a hand.

    There IS life after ED.

  • this video was made to make people realize how they destroy themselves by starving themselves and forcing themselves to throw up

    thats why people still love her

    thats whyy people are saying thanks!

  • still love you ana.

  • who the hell write this stuff?

    it makes me so sick to watch a video like this!its just wrong to trick young people into believing that this is the right way to live!!/:

    my prayers are with those who fight against anorexia..

  • omg. I am actually crying. That was really touching...am never gonna starve myself after watching this :'( x

  • how can you all love ANA ?! ..it´s so stupid ...

    ana can´t help!!

  • umm yea, am i the only one who kinda wants to kick ana's ass? please god i hope not.

  • LOVE ANA!

  • this was amazing.

    it made me think twice about starving myself.

    i may be a little bit chunky but im definitely not fat.

    the weight I wanna lose can be lost by exercise and healthy eating, not by starving myself.

    thank you for helping me realize this.

  • ana i love you for ever

  • or not.

  • <3<33

  • man,that made me cry.

  • <33 :(

  • dis scares me. as if saitin or somebody as equal is taking over.

  • stoop thiis?? bullshiit

    i love you ana!!

  • this video makes me cry.

    sad part is, as much as I hate this lifestyle, I'm absolutely terrified to give it up.

  • i don't get how girls would want to be anorexic or think it's "cool"

    it's a life threatening illness.

    and i have it, and it's going to kill me.

    so don't think for one second that it's "true".

  • This is EXACTLY me. How can any of you want to be anorexic? You have no idea how horrible it is. I hate myself so much. It's ruined my life. The sad thing is, ana is to strong now & i can't fight her anymore :( if anyone needs 2 chat about it then i'm here xxx

  • I'm ON my Knees for you ANA

    'and i need you now somehow'

    at least she speaks the truth!

  • Thankyou ... im shaking ryt now, finally iv knocked some sense in2 my head ... im FAT.

  • You don't be fooled .. Ana isn't the answer to your problems

  • Nobody seems to understand this isn't a pro-anorexic video.

    It actually shows people who are anorexic where their faults are. I can't believe people would demand to take this down.

    It took me so long to read it but in between tears i learned some stuff.

    If you're anorexic and you're reading this it could save your life.

  • i read it and its sad.

    but no change. i love my life being anorexic

  • i love this video it reminds me of what i suffered in the past and infact its probably about 30% true

  • 30percent!! what!! thats my life! :]

  • delete it !?

    It's sick!

    omfg.

  • You're saying don't lsten 2 'ana' but it's really not that easy. i'm completly trapped. Ana's ruined my life. If anyone wants 2 chat i'm here xxx

  • pleasee im here to talkkk!

  • dont listen to ana..

    anorexia is not the way to go

    she has no life!

  • ana is encouranging it!

    thats not right!

    and im anorexic and im saying tht!

  • this is triggering, "my heart" is tellin me to say well done for this video, its encouraging etc etc, but "my head" is tellin me to say its wrong and triggering, i dont want people to go through what i'm going through right now, its almost impossible to get out of. but as much as it pains me to say it, it gives me reason to do it, shes got me wrapped up in this, all i can do it follow her "rules" .. please dont go down the same path as me..

  • That was so powerful.. so true.

    But maybe it wasn't such a good idea to post this on the internet? It encourages people to go Ana. However strong and heartbreaking it was.. however true it was, perhaps its not right to upload this kind of thing..

    "I am your only friend." "I have created a thin, normal, achieving child." .. If you get what I mean..:S

  • I'm sure this letter is on so many pro-ana sites and anyone can find it.

  • omg Not believe that. Its so hurrible Why do you this video in Youtube ?? You are stupid ar you know what this video do with people ?? or girls who dont know who they am ??

    So pliesss Cut this :O

  • hmm.. isn't it true that the diagnostic criteria for anorexia has changed from 25% below [DSM III] the normal weight TO 15% below (now - DSM IV)..seems to me the medical community just wants to make money off of girls wanting to be thin ..ANA needs to tell you that she really only is with you at 25% below the norm. EVEN though doctors say she has been introduced to you with 15% below norm weight. She comands more from you then what you think.

  • if you can read she found it in the internet. you come across these things all the time evan if its not what you were lookin for.idiot

  • *Tear*

  • This is so hard to revisit that it's making me cry.

    I give my heart to anyone else who is going through this. It almost finished me.

  • lol at the noobs anorexia who has that seriously its called australia its a proven fact that noone gets anorexia there its called statistics

  • demon, just like cutting.

  • fusajkweajkesmjdskjerjkewhewmn­msjkwe4jkew you

  • god yes. :|

  • this song is sophie's anorexia story

  • ana must be a magician and she talks way too fast oh and by the way i came out of my buy schedule to tease u sooks lmao at you your so fat your as fat as that stick

  • heY!! someone knows what song is it?? thanks!!

  • okay. I have been studying ALOT and i have seriously come to a conclusion i am proana. not because i want to fit in. , its because our bodies are MADE to eat only 2 or 3 small meals a day. our bodies have not changed almost at all between the thousands of years from our primal ancestors. ( who only ate veggies and anything natural) . im not saying go trow up and eat nothing for a week. but just cut back on your daily eating binges and eat more natural food..

  • Ed are about the thinking process, the eating process is just a symptom.

  • Well you need to do a lot more studying if that's your view on a life threatening disease. Eating 3 meals a day and including natural foods into your diet is HEALTHY, and probably the recommended intake for an average human being. Anorexia is NOT healthy, so I suggest you get your facts straight before you start calling yourself 'pro ana.'

  • You don't have even a slightest idea of what it means to be pro ana .. The real pro ana are unfortunately anorexics girls that rather to admit their problem, they try to ignore the existence of it ... And they are trying to convince themselves that what they do is right ..

    you and all those idiots girls who declare themselves pro ana without even knowing the true meaning of it are painful..

    Sorry for my english but I'm Italian

  • Ana and Mia have to be the worst "best" friends ever!

    I feel so bad for those afflicted with EDs. I tried to fast when I was in third grade, but I decided, fuck this. I am glad I made that choice. For most, it is not a choice, but a compulsion.

  • *sob*

    FUCK YOU ALL!

    YOU DONT UNDER STAND!

    If I stop ill gain it all back!

    I dont have to fucking eat full meals!

    I eat... enough!

    *sob*

    DAMBIT!

  • it's ok. i know how u feel. u'll be ok.

  • I'm feeling the same. :[

  • me too.]:

  • beviboop:

    I've been hospitalized twice for my struggle with anorexia and bulemia. Both times were the most challenging and most awarding times of my life. I, like you, lost a lot of friends with the disease especially when everyone discovered my self harm. Please, do fear a "hospital" if you truly want to gain back your life.

  • Dude ana from what i hear comes straight from hell, if anyones struggling with it...i say get rid of it as fast as possible

  • I'm 13 and i was diagnosed with anorexia & bulimia when i was 12. i would love to be normal again. i've lost so many friends over it. I've been told if i loose anymore weight than i've got to go into hospital. its hard when all i want is to be thin and no1 will let me! i'm one of the most popular girls in my year and when i started self harming everyone realised how messed up i was. if u've got a problem then please get help. everyone has really supported me xx feel free 2 ask me any questions x

  • PLEASE STOP WORSHIPPING THIS VIDEO.

    Fro what it sounds like the person who created this video wanted to help people, not encourage them. If you had crohns disease, like i do.. you wouldn't want to lose weight at all! My loss of appetite ended with my major organs shutting down. I nearly died. People with anorexia and bulimia need help. Not encouragement.

  • what is this song?

  • Sophie - Eleanor McEvoy

  • thanks i downloaded it makes me cry :(

  • What's the name of this song?
