FUCK THE PAST why do people always dredge up fucken crap and find some blame with their parents and continually punish themselves for their mistakes. Its daft!!! People can all be happy its their natural being! You have to think happy and face the pain head on accept that it happened and purge the emotion out of the body!! You have the choice either to wallow in self pity or create your own happiness.
anyone notice how ever movie about eating disorders has the main character running in the beginning? like honestly, cant hollywood be more original. And also, i am not sure which hospital would put you impatient so fast, the day she was diagnosed!
It's wrong, but I double lol'd at the melodramaticness of this film, first the ruptured esophagus and then the dead friend - it just feeds into the stereotype of EDs as being exciting and dramatic and attention grabbing when really they're long, drawn out and generally extremely repetitive and dull. You don't drop dead, you just find out in 10 years that your bones are shot and you'll never have kids, THAT's how they fuck you over...
This film was not CRAZY triggering and does a great job at conveying what really goes on in the eating disordered psyche. In real life, contrary to the common ED stereotype, eating disorders do NOT discriminate in age...so I loved how the plot was centered around a middle-aged woman instead of a teen. One of the best movies on EDs I've ever seen.
I almost cried when I found out Patch died. That was surprising. What a sad movie. Kate reminds me of myself in a way, but I just hope I never have to go into one of those places! I'd freak out!
Thank you so so SO much for posting this! I've been looking for this movie for years and I suffer from both anorexia and bulimia. It was wonderful to watch again -3
omg i have no idea why i watched this movie...it hurt me so much...i dont even suffer through bulimia or anorexia, i go through other mental illnesses like anxiety, depression and ptsd...but for some reason i felt like i wanted to see this. well its soo sad...but whatever. at least its over...
After watching this movie i have learned so much more about Bulimia. This has showed me that it is a very bad thing and this could lead to death. Even if you were to take laxatives it can kill you instead of helping you.
To those who say they binge and purge with no complications: Just because the results aren't happening as quickly for you as they do in a made-for-TV movie doesn't mean they won't happen over time. The results can take years to develop into serious problems. Educate yourself and confide in those who can help you stop the cycle of destructive and dangerous behavior. If you don't you could pay later with sickness or even your life. Will that be worth it? Call 1-800-931-2237 for assistance. ♥
@shoponline831 you cant say you have any complications because when you are sick you are NOT realistic and you DONT realise what you have. I am sorry for you
@shoponline831 quit lying to yourself, please, before it's too late to control the damage you're doing. there is no possibility that spewing acid and ridding yourself of essential micro-elements is harmless. no possibility.
I knew it! Isn't it strange how in these movies when the main character befriends a girl/woman who also has an eating disorder, the friend dies later on?
This movie, Dying to Dance, The Best Little Girl in the World, The Secret Life of Mary-Margaret: Portrait of a Bulimic, and A Secret Between Friends are all movies where the friend dies (and it usually motivates the main character to recover).
@starrbeatlesqueen Exactly, that's the point, it motivates the main character to recover. First the friend dies, then the main character relapses and THEN they recover. It's how these scripts/stories work and it keeps us entertained. Good movie :)
@starrbeatlesqueen It shows that you can really die from it...a lot of us who battle it don't think about it for the most part we just think about the common goal "perfection"
@GoneWithTheWind2013 Too bad "Hunger Point" was the only movie to demonstrate the more likely cause of death for someone with an eating disorder: suicide.
What kind of reaction is that from the mother? Why wasn't she at Kate's bedside keeping vigil of some kind instead of worrying about "what she did to her husband?" She was a hot mess! Jack though, he was a good man.
Kissing your mom on the lips is just weird..

@vabeach94 She either ruptured her stomach or esophagus. Later in the movie she gabs her stomach, so I assume it's her stomach.
