  • What the hell.. She flatlines so the doctor pulls out a stethoscope to listen to her heart rate? Its already being monitored by the machine dumb ass. she has no pulse. the stethoscope is not gonna say something otherwise.

  • what type of hospital is this? how can a girl take pills and die and a girl escape? do the nurses and doctors never check up on them? god.

  • I love how she can just leave whenever she wants lol

  • Maybe she should have eaten some of the food pics on her wall, kidding.

  • Who made the scream?

  • laurenheartscouture read my comments for whizerd and apply them to you, so please contact me privatly. And what ever you say to me is private. Take care of yourself!

  • @whitzerd , I have a good weight but I'm 5'5 and wear a size 4 and I'm 38 years old with 2 children. I have never been above a size 9 ( bad times). I'm eating healthy right now and work on my health issues. Please get in touch with me so we can talk.I think I can help you!

  • @whitzerd please contact me don't be afraid or worried i give you a hard time. I will be there for you and yes maybe you can help me too.

  • Woah how come people had pretty haor back than even the asian nurse did

  • This is a decent movie but the music is killing me...

  • So she's storing up binge food when she knows she's being released the next morning?

  • who cares who the actress played prior, i really admire the comments from painterofmusic and whitzerd. TY so much for trying to understand, whitzerd contact me privatly, I think we need to talk. Take care everyone!

  • This is the same chick that killed herslef in ordinary people

  • Do any of you have a eating disorder, or are you just going by the movies? I have been an anorexic for 19 years, trying to keep a healthy weight. I was a teen when i started, substituted with vomiting some times, since i have a family to raise.It is an uphill battle, unless you've been there you'll never understand.For me those movies are therapy, not to get as bad as i had been at times, never want to be back in the hospital again. But this is no joke .

  • @mrsrobinsoncat I was thinking the same thing! if she's commiting suicide or getting discharged, either way, she's not gonna need that food she's storing up!

  • Or did she commit sucide because she didn't want to be discharged?

  • Don't get why she would store up food for a 'future' binge when she has decided to commit suicide.

  • OH MY GOD NO I LIKED HER :[

  • i guess the friend dies...all the anorexia movies the friend dies

  • I dont understand why she killed herself

  • im a confessed bolemic, but ive changed. thanks god, but it was so difficult though...

  • Wait,the other anorexic girl in the hospital didn't die in the book.They shouldn't have changed it.

  • do they really shake like that? That hand scared the crap outa me

  • the girl is a bitch. no one in treatment acts like that, shes just obnoxious

  • @tinaaarx3 some do -everyone is different- it affects people in different ways

  • couldnt they have closed the dang door?!

  • wow. those doctors are urgent.

  • Whoever the fuck this other anorexic chick with the stupid ass hair is....needs to lay the fuck off. I don't believe anorexics are crazy (I am one)...and I don't think Ana buddies are wrong..but pushing someone into bulimia or anorexia...is just wrong.

  • No wonder Carol is super-thin. Smoking not only causes horrible damage lung and heart health, but it also causes loss of appetite. (That's why you'll see a lot of models smoking.)

  • Poor Carol. From the look on her face when Casey left and as how she starts to cry as she was packing, I knew she was going to kill herself.

    Guess when some people constantly battle illness or anything that's stressful for that long to the point where they can't deal with it anymore, something like what happened to her seems like a solution. So sad. :(

  • These hospitals are horribly attended. Why are there no night people?

  • Oh man. I knew Casey's friend was going to kill herself or something the way she was talking to Casey and just from the look on her face after Casey left. Poor girl.

  • whats with the lame scream

  • Pulling the cath or her Picc line could have killed her because it leads directly to the heart. If anyone EVERY thinks of doing this...PLEASE DON'T

  • Thanks for the warning.

  • love the twist from the book

  • "If you cut your hair you would lose a few pounds" har isn't THAT heavy.

  • @PeaceNdLovee I had black thick hair to my butt, and when these obsessions with being slim took contole over me I shaved it off, I looked like a cancer patient, i lost two pounds

  • I love her friend. She shows all of the signs of bulimia. She sounds like the disease itself. Blunt, too. Her character is just right.

  • 8:17 what happened??did someone touch her or somethin...

  • my friend pulled his cathader (i can't spell) out, which is really gross and sounds painful. I can't imagine instructing someone else to pull that thing out.

  • 5:48 nurse looks anorexic as well

  • HER friend just wasn't strong enough to fight her illness.

  • Her friend didn't want to fight.

  • real smart leaving her alone when they knew the two girls were friends

  • I know! I was like 0.o

  • That girl that keeps talking to the main character is such a bitch. If she was talking to me like that I would tell her to get the fuck out of my room.

  • I like her.  she's trying to help her out in the wrong way. She's got spunk.

  • I agree! how HORRIBLY unprofessional of them to let Casey watch all of this!

  • @painterofmusic i used to wanna look perfect til i got sick now im happy just the way i am.

  • @nuwavething not being sarcastic at all, Congratulations, i just wish so many other people could feel the way you do :)

  • @painterofmusic Remember that this was in 1981 and knowledge on how to treat anorexia and bulimia was still fairly new.

  • @painterofmusic In real life they wouldnt have let them watch, at least they arent supposed to. Unless they did it to show them what can happen but still it isnt right to do that

  • @painterofmusic they probably wanted casey to realize what anorexia can do to u...maybe a wake up call for casey

  • @painterofmusic Well... it is a hospital from which Casey managed to elope twice :) ... I don't know what else to say about the quality of care. Isn't anyone doing 15 minute checks or anything?

  • how come the hospital personnel just let Casey stand there watching her friend, dead? :o That's awful, and very unprofessional. I think that's a mistake in the script.

  • anyone else notice her family havent been to see her once?

  • her family was told not to come and see her because it will only upset her and slow down her recovery

  • because you're too much of an idiot to get it.

  • i dont understand her doing so stupid just after seenig her friend dying from it

    and you cant just walk out of the hospital at night like that, lol

  • what in fuck is up with all the crazy music?

  • @OhMaiGosh i think they tried to make it go with the theme of the movie or whatever =)

  • I hate this...it makes bulimia look like the answer...to be honest most people with bulimia actually put ON weight because you still absorb some of the calories and they eat so much that some of the calories is enough to make them put on weight...

  • @Whitzerd WTH??? This movie doesn't make bulimia look like an answer!!! It shows the problems of Bulimia.

  • @Whitzerd Do you really think there's only one type of bulimia? Shows how much you know.

  • @Whitzerd very untrue

  • @Whitzerd Yes but she was described as having bulimia and anorexia. I am sick with this and it basically consists having all the symptoms of bulimia (binging and purging) but with failure to maintain or meet 85% of a minimum body weight for my height. why some people put on weight and some people lose weight with bulimia, I have no idea. I guess it all depends on the individual.

  • @toriotgirl You're right, but it can also mean that when not binging and purging, one goes through boughts of self-starvation as well. I was the same.

  • @Whitzerd no the reason bulimics tend to be normal weight or put on weight is because vomiting causes dehydration so that then body will hold onto all liquids a person drinks -> this causes water weight gain. Another reason is that some bulimics tend to eat normally in front of others so they won't lose any weight.

  • @Whitzerd not always true thou - Some people do loose A LOT through bulimia- it's not that it doens't happen it's jus not a guarantee

  • @Whitzerd not always true thou - Some people do loose A LOT through bulimia- it's not that it doens't happen it's jus not a guarantee not jus that the girl ends up killing herself- so how can it make it look like bulimia is the answer!!!!!!

  • @Whitzerd SO true! After a year of EDNOS, I gained back 20 lbs. from bulimia in just 5 months.

  • She walks like perfectlly ok at the ward but can hardly stand up when she get´s out? Isn´t that a bit weird?

  • yeah but in the hospital she's got the tube to give her more energy plus it's a lot colder outside and the rain would be making it harder too

  • plus the iv tube acts as a supporting pole

  • u know this jennifer jason leigh came in the world records 2000 for being an actress who payed so much attention to her job that she dropeed to 86 pounds just for the role

  • I have the feeling Carol is going to die.. just got done watching the scene where she shows Casey her room and the feeling just hit me hard.

  • she makes it look so easy, running away from a hospital

  • the medical procedures in this section are a joke.

  • who is the actress?

  • Jennifer Jason Leigh

  • OH MY GOD SHE DIED!! I liked Carol!!

  • The friend looks like a young version of Bob Dylan... xD

  • Why is it always raining whenever she tries to escape the hospital?

  • for dramatic effect.

  • xD True.

  • what grabbed casey

  • A hobo I assume.

  • Comment removed

  • I think that that is the saddest moment when you realize that no matter what, the front you put on to make everyone believe that you don't care about what happens to you... the reality hits that you care so much you don't know what else to do... :'(

  • Will somebody please please please explain to me how she died?

    thanks!

  • she od on pills her hear couldnt take it-with the abuse from the anorexia

  • Most people with bulemia die of heart failure/ heart attack

  • bulimia

  • I knew that ;) now I feel embarressed. Stupid spelling error!!

  • lol tis ok!

  • elctrolytes

  • @thedrunkenelf or somethin w.ur electrolytes

  • Melanie Mayron's character is a sick little beeyoch.

  • This is so different from the book

  • i know. i enjoyed the book more i think. :)

  • who is that screaming at 5:12, is that carol link?

  • i think it was he nurse who found her

  • food porn much? you would never get away with that nowdays, i wish you could though

  • what do you mean food porn and why can't you get away with it now a days?

  • food porn is when anorexics and bulimics collect an obscene number of photos of food and recipes, for the anorexic it is to tempt themselves and to deny themselves to make them feel more powerful and in control and for the bulimic it is to fantise over food to binge on. Such hording of food pictures is considered a behaviour when in treatment so patients are not allowed to have such things. I had recipe books with photos in taken away from me when I went into treatment let alone a wall of pics

  • sounds like a great explanation.

  • I don't get it... why is the girl with the curly short hair crying?

  • I think because she knows she'll get out but soon she'd be back in and she probably feels guilty or encouraging that lifestyle for the little girl. she might have been depressed too when people are depressed some can hide it very well. but after that she took a bunch of pills and died. so yea it probably had something to do with that.

  • gah that music is killing me..

  • hahaha forreal

  • Man that girl is annoying... Totally sabotaging Casey's recovery.. But I know that some people just get like that, and there's nothing you can do about it. Of course she doesn't WANT Casey to recover.. which is understandable because of her state of mind.. But still, it sucks!

  • 5:04 y is carol crying?

  • I think she's crying because she made up her mind to finally give up, and commit suicide. It's such an unfortunate thing. Many people put on a "happy" act so that they do not give people the impression that they are suicidal...then alone, they cry. I think that is what happened with Carol.

  • competitive anorexia is so annoying. i hate it when you meet someone who feels the need to one up everything you've done.

  • Ugh! Me too!! I have a friend like that. Sometimes I really want to just yell at her. But I hold my tongue. Haha. :P

  • yeah like my gymnastics friend

  • Yes, but they couldn't make the actors really thin or else they could REALLY end up like that.

  • How the hell is 83 pounds not thin?!

  • Yeah and the weird thing is she apparently dieted down to 86lbs (39kg) for this movie. They must have stuffed her clothes too because she did look bigger at the start of it.

  • which girl carol?

  • i am not sure of her name, the blonde one with long hair

  • casey

  • I think they are thin... and they are thinner than at the begining of the video... I was fatter than that when i had problems, although people say i wasn,t, i m sure i was

  • the music is terrible!

  • i don't get it....the girl with the poofy hair was lying the whole time?

    where DID she get the pills from?

  • she pretended to take them and saved them.

  • funny how on the wall only ana is showing from the word banana..

  • i hate the music throughout this movie

  • Okay, I'm assuming the part where it was all dark she ran outside, but I couldn't tell what was going on, also assuming she pulled out the IV...

  • I was gonna say...how come they didn't do heart massage, or give her a chest tube to breath. Guess that technology was'nt too modern yet.

  • these days their relationship would be discouraged- that girl is unhealthy for Lisa to interact with

  • who the fuck is lisa?

  • I totally agree. I have no idea why you got all the thumbs down. She bugs

  • Still a beginner?  This girl's nuts.

  • This was made in the 70s guys. Anorexia was a relatively newly diagnosed disease and so doctors didn't know a lot about it and clinics had different rules. They didn't know a lot of the tricks yet, which is probably why they didn't search rooms.

  • actually the 80's if you listen to the part how her sis tells them she is preg she says its the 80's

  • that hanndd oh my god, lol

  • they would soo catch on she stole all that stuff, to hide,

    they search peoples rooms,,,

  • Melanie Mayron is like Broadway's Annie gone horribly awry.

  • LOL you said it !

  • lol she looks like jan from the brady bunch

  • The actress looks like Emma Wayson..

  • Emma Watson?

    I know, I thought so too.

  • the doctors seem so unprofessional, esp when they were giving casey the central line in the part before this one.

  • this music is weird...

  • that hand freaked the shit out of me lol

  • those big machines are such a itch to drag around

  • i know when i had pnemonia i had to drag something like that and it was a pain, i was trying to be so careful not to pull it so hard lol

  • um wouldn't more happen if you pulled a central line? i want to ask my brother in law he is a doc but id be to embarrassed to ask about a central line

  • that girl is a bad influence

  • Somnetimes, eating disorder patients feel safe in the hospital...or that they finally belong some place...and it's hard for them to leave.

  • She wasn't being discharged she was lying

  • How do you know? They discharge people all the time when they really shouldn't. Insurance decides not to pay b/c you're stable.

  • the pain

  • I'm confused why was she crying?

  • i dislike that red head girl

  • AHHHH!! THE ROOMATE!! YAY!!!!

  • the red-haired girl is just trying to make her feel bad so she can feel well because she feels crappy about herself.

  • i bet that short haired girl with the red hair die

  • Poor Carol. She must be so lonely. The way she uses her "anorexic expertise" to make friends with Casey(?) makes me feel so sorry for her. And that goodbye almost made me cry, with Carol having decided to kill herself but obviously not being able to tell. ;_;

  • she was so nice at the beginning ( afro gal) and know shes horrible. o god what a bad influence!

  • How did that afro girl die?

  • the doctour said "where did she get all those pills" so she probably OD

  • You lose I few pounds if you cut your what?!
