This is one of my favorite songs. And not all anorexics are skinny. When I started out I weighed in at 270 pounds and in less then 4 months I dropped to 220 through unrelenting exercise and refusing to eat, or tricking people into thinking I was. And it's aweful. I remember trying to chug down a gallon of water in wal mart parking lot begging myself not to eat later, cussing myself out. The sickening feeling of a full stomach. So many people think it's a choice.. It's a prison. like the song lol
@XxXKingdomXxXHeartsX So it's just a mental thing? I've noticed many have said this. The majority of anorexics I have seen were insecure with themselves therefore making them turn to anorexia.
@KingWithoutaCause Refusing to eat is the one thing they feel gives them control. They feel out of control in other parts of their life, so they obsess over one part they feel they can control. First, it may be a diet, but dieting causes changes in brain chemistry, so the disorder takes over, and before they know it, the diet is controlling them. It's all about the ILLUSION of control. When really, they're slowly killing themselves. It's not even about the food. That's just how it manifests!
I've seen this vid on My Space long time ago..... but it was to a much different and far better punk tune.....anybody remeber it by chance? Love this vid...
i never had anorexia, but my friend phoebe had bulimia which is close to anorexia, where you forcefully throw up your food right after you eat it. and eat alot, then back to the toothbrush and sink, and out it goes into the sink. its sad, but ppl mix up anorexia with bulimia alot
@MyBloodyValentine011 Bulimia is a different disorder than Anorexia. Suffers of Anorexia drastically reduce there caloric intake and are normally underweight. Suffers from Bulimia binge on large amounts of food then purge by either making themselves throw up, use laxatives, or over exercise. Bulimics are not always under weight, they can be a an average or above average weight. The only people that mix up Anorexia and Bulimia are people who are uneducated in the subject
@tinyvamp0120 ya i know, but its a common disorder that ppl mix up with anorexia, in anorexia, u excersise and starve yourself, but u still think ur fat, bulimia, the victim eats tons of food and then pukes it out.
@MyBloodyValentine011 There is more to Anorexia than exercising and starving, just as there is more to Bulimia than binging and purging. Throwing up is only one form of purging, over exercising and laxative abuse are also forms of purging. I know what I'm talking about I have an eating disorder for 8 years now.
@tinyvamp0120 yes, I realize, Anorexia looks like a terrible life, and whoever has any problems, i feel sympathetic. I cant bear to see another friend die in front of my eyes. :-(
@MyBloodyValentine011 And just to add one more thing. Bulimics normally throw up in the toilet not the sink. And most use there hand not a toothbrush. Besides using a toothbrush is very dangerous. You could easily choke on it and that would bad
This is how i feel, its horrible but in a way to know im not the only one gives me hope. Thankyou for understanding and making this video for others to understand x
This video is amazing not because it encoureges or discourages ana but because its honest sooooo sooooo honest everything you said is true you feel completely and totally trapped and when your alone no-one sees you cry. Also what you put in the info box is too tru criticism from haters never helps it just makes things worse
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I sense a lot of bloated whale women here. Go back to Ana and Mia...
Anyway, to the point. All you women seem to do is whine whine whine. “Oh it’s a disorder”. Yeah, aw, boo hoo, the fact remains…there are millions of us out here who will constantly remind you that gotta lose that fat. Thin is beautiful, May you continue to realize it.
Bingo. Way to get it right, girlfriend. I leave for treatment next week. I am one point to health, one soul Anorexia and Bulimia can't have,
Never ever give in completely, you guys... hold on to as much of yourself as you can. Even if it's just a sliver of a shadow. Cause one day you'll kick her sorry ass to the curb and regrow the life you used to have. xx
I have Anorexia and am and have been trying desperately to find a good treatment center to take me but b/c we dont have the right benefit we can't find anyone to help. It sucks. So I have started my own blogs.
I was wondering what program did you make your video with ?
Great video! This mental disease is really weird: It's hard to conceive that some people starve themselves, see the result and the pain of starvation yet have no control about it. The medical science has still everything to understand from this specific disease. This disease directly affects the will, and understanding its mechanism might greatly help to understand why we decide to do things, even when we know they are bad for us...Anyway, I am glad you managed to get out of it!
:/ I see what you're trying to say with this video and in some ways I do agree (I think it takes more than just claiming you have anorexia to make it so) but I think anorexia affects people in different ways. I never counted calories or weighed myself too obsessively but I deffinately had anorexia. It was more that I was afraid to eat because food represented living... not that I wanted to die, I just didn't want to live, if that makes any sense. I wanted to be thin so I could take up less room.
You really nailed it. I've been "recovered" for a little over a year now, but you don't forget what it's like. It's nice to see someone post a non-thinspo video for once. Stay strong. I wish you the best.
Thank you for such an accurate video. I've sent the link to a few of my closest friends in hope that they'll begin to understand what I'm going through and somehow I'll get help.
anorexia is my best friend ........................ but inside i wish to kill it but i cant i am anorexia and bulimic keep in mind that im 11 im just now telling myy secret....
@aniko247 Please do not try to become anorexic, it will may seem like the perfect solution but it's nothing like that, it made my life a living hell. I know it's difficult but attempt to eat a little more healthily and increase your walking or other excercise and these small steps will lead to a healthier lifestyle. I would never wish anorexia on anyone. Stay safe. :)
thank you for this video. you let everyone who doesn't understand exactly what it's like...even tho they can't really understand, this lets them know the reality of AN.
I agree with you. People say that soo many girls have an eating disorder today but do they actually have the mental disease? No....they're just trying to. Starving for attention, being self concious, following trends, its not and illness.
you know how confused I am? I donno what the fuck I have or who the fuck I am, whether I have a disease or just a wanna, and then I hear people say stuff like this and im more confused. No one understands how I think of myself or how I feel when I eat or don't eat. Anyone who will starve themselve has to be messed up in some way! You can't just say that someones not ana just because they ... I dont even know. Just please dont go thinking that the people who aren't fully meeting with ana are wana
I hate both of them...used to like them...now they make life a living hell...im in "recovery" now but i fight with its lies almost everyday. Its not glamorous its sad.
i used to say the same honey, now that i am 25 and with alot of health problems i changed my mind.
is too bad, i loved ana so much and she never loved me, she just tried to kill me :( and she couldnt but she affected my life, now it wont be as long as i wanted it.
These are responses to the (more info) section regarding people "claiming anorexia", it isn't a covented Holy title folks.If someone says they have it, why does it piss you off ?
whether or not someone's addiction with not eating goes too far, it always begins somewhere. So these young kids we put down for faking it, most of them probably will stop soon, some of them will die. Sometimes, your first time 'round with it, you don't know how deep it can go. So if you know so much about it and it's so real, then help these people instead of mocking them for being fake anorexics. The term is ridiculous. The competition is sad.
I read it between women who hate anorexic girls all together and anorexic people who hate "not seriously" anorexic people. I think it's sad. We need to focus on what we have in common. Besides, Hell, *I* don't look sick anymore but it's still in my head. And you know, so what if these young girls don't know the hardships of it yet to the full extent, that's a good thing. I know what you mean but some people bragging about it or whatnot and all these young kids "trying it out" or whatever, but...
Personally, I'm tired of the cattiness between everyone of who's REALLY sick and who's faking and this and that, I mean really people? That's great if you've been sick for X amount of years and the 13 year old girl has only stopped for a few days. I'm glad that some people can feel superior because THEIR addiction is more serious than others. I hope my sarcasm is obvious where it was intended and I am so tired of all the cattiness.
ive been anorexic for 6 years. this video captures exactly how i feel yet no one understands.i feel so alone. i ws doing good bt now i hate myself again. eds r no joke
I feel like this every single day and I've been hospitalized twice and admitted into a mental health institution just recently.
It's the hardest thing in the world to recover, I'm not going to lie, it's fucking Hell.
I honestly don't know what keeps me going everyday because I'm in a terrible mental state but I am still alive, and sometimes even laughing. It feels so good to laugh sometimes.
this is how i feel, having almost recovered after my first admitance to a ward over the christmas period i am still strugling now; everyday.
even though my body seems almost ok i find it hard.
i sincerely thank-you for the video, its so accurate xxx
thank-you to my friends who linked this to me.
i'm staying strong and am determined not to let this beat me and i hope that you are recovering and are well along with the many others who see this video and understand the words herexxxx
Yeah its good to have ur teeth and hair fall out and have ur organs eat themselves and then dieing beiing fat isnt good either but eat healthy work out and lose weight in a safe way and I know all this because I used to be anorexic and its not fun
Im sorry about everything I spell wrong. But I will try my best, and I need to say this.. Anorexia can happen so fast and noone would notices it before its to late. As for me, Im so scared to fall into that. Becuse I think alot of food and my weight etc. thats why I look at vids like this, to realas that its nothing you want to chose if you can. beacuse its your choose to stop eating, to work out to much etc. you do. you just have to stop listen at the voice in your head that says:do not eat....
ANOREXIA isn't a disease......it is a disorder. Most importantly it is a compulsion. And anyone who is alive can develope a compulsion...CONCSIOUSLY or unconsciously. Period.
If diets worked none of us would be online looking at these videos. I only ate chicken, tuna, fruites, veggies, and water. I run everyday does that make me skinny hell no! If you want to look good you have to do something real about it. I hate when people come on these things and say just diet... we don't need a diet we need a lifestyle change.
That's not entirely true. I eat all the things you eat and I am dtill considered "anorexic", because I limit how much I eat, staying under 1000 calories a day, which is incredibly unhealthy for someone my height. It IS a lifestyle, doing this sort of thing, but you don't have to completely starve yourself, although I do fast once in a while... You can still eat, you just tend to limit yourself. Some people stay away from carbs, some all meat, some all sugar, some sodium.
I agree with you. Eating disorders are not just a trend, this is not something that girls should do just to look pretty in a swimsuit or a tube top. I have tried to put a big fat smiley face on everything to kind of make it seem more light-hearted, maybe for my sake, because of my struggles with this disorder, but I know ultimately if I don't get help I will die.
i think you are anorexic or are just about to develope a more serious case of anorexia. eat more. if you wanna loose weight see a diettrition or go online for healthy diets!
really good video and gets the message across, well done, good job :)
i don't even know if i'm suffering from an eating disorder or not?? all i know is i want to lose a bit of weight, and i eat a yoghurt in the morning, then nothing until tea at night. i skip lunch and don't have snacks. so surely i don't have an eating disorder, do i? someone please tell me what you think because i'm confused...
thankyou for posting this , i have to constantly remind myself that what i do is an illness and that it isnt normal , to remind myself that i deserve recorvery ,We all do . i hate when people try to make this beautiful because it's not and it's the ugliest ive EVER felt , i thought i would be happy when i lost weight , when a new bone shone through but i dont every pound i loose , i loose more of the real me & just become an ed ! this is a sad existance , Recovery is hard but well worth it ! <3
you need to tell people about you anorexia! trust me.. your everything including beautifull! I can't see you but I know that you are below weight and you need help. Your not going crazy. And even if you try slowly.. try eating a peice of food you like, not to big. and dont purge it. then try that everyday. You will feel better.. Your body is going to start eating itself. please try it. Let keep in touch , that way you can tell me how your doing!

Thank you for making this video!! That is EXACTLY what it's like!!! Only another sufferer could know that. I am 30 years and have been dealing with anorexia and bulimia since I was 17. I hope that you are in recovery. I wish you all the best. xo
hey good video, hope your recovering, and know that your beautiful already, so being super thin will only make your life shorter, not trying to hate, just saying it's really unhealthy and dangerous and i hope your better, and healthy. . .
I still fight between recovery and disorder everyday and either way I always find something to criticize myself over. but, despite what your mind tells you, you are worth it, you are NOT a failure. it isn't natural to be positive @ first. remember that everyone has bad days but, don't let yourself get comfortable with having bad days. get back up and keep working towards a healthy mind first and your body will follow.
awesome vid and great pics in there, I like the pic of the girl feeling the space between her legs.... I do that all the time, just to make sure it is still there :s
i completely agree. and i have to say... having "recovered" is the worst... at least for me. all the feelings are still there, but my body is back to "normal". i'm not anorexia thin anymore, which i know is good. and i'm scared to death to get in shape because i don't want to fall again. and still i pretend like everything's ok... but there's nothing i can do about it. wondering if anyone understands that...
This video was amazing........ I was very curious to find out how one who is anorexic thinks..... this video explains everything. very creative video I hope you get better.
Finally someone who understands what it is all about. This is it, this is ana my relationship with her. How it began how it is now, and as much as i want it, but dont completely understand why how may end.
i'm very pleased that this video has produced better understanding, on the fact that eating disorders are addictive diseases...once you have them they become who you are...or at least you feel it has...and it's so hard to let go of what you feel defines you.
Definitely clearing up a lot of confusion, because there are so many pro-ana, thinspiration vids out there that it's hard to remember that this is an actual DISEASE that kills people. Of course, people in the disease are going to want to justify it by making it their 'cause.'
to be anorexic you have to be a bulimian too?

These are responses to the (more info) section regarding people "claiming anorexia", it isn't a covented Holy title folks.If someone says they have it, why does it piss you off ?

whether or not someone's addiction with not eating goes too far, it always begins somewhere. So these young kids we put down for faking it, most of them probably will stop soon, some of them will die. Sometimes, your first time 'round with it, you don't know how deep it can go. So if you know so much about it and it's so real, then help these people instead of mocking them for being fake anorexics. The term is ridiculous. The competition is sad.

I read it between women who hate anorexic girls all together and anorexic people who hate "not seriously" anorexic people. I think it's sad. We need to focus on what we have in common. Besides, Hell, *I* don't look sick anymore but it's still in my head. And you know, so what if these young girls don't know the hardships of it yet to the full extent, that's a good thing. I know what you mean but some people bragging about it or whatnot and all these young kids "trying it out" or whatever, but...

Personally, I'm tired of the cattiness between everyone of who's REALLY sick and who's faking and this and that, I mean really people? That's great if you've been sick for X amount of years and the 13 year old girl has only stopped for a few days. I'm glad that some people can feel superior because THEIR addiction is more serious than others. I hope my sarcasm is obvious where it was intended and I am so tired of all the cattiness.

This was so perfect.
I feel like this every single day and I've been hospitalized twice and admitted into a mental health institution just recently.
It's the hardest thing in the world to recover, I'm not going to lie, it's fucking Hell.
I honestly don't know what keeps me going everyday because I'm in a terrible mental state but I am still alive, and sometimes even laughing. It feels so good to laugh sometimes.
Fight anorexia. You'll miss out.

Everything you said was exactly how I feel - everything.
Its like your living your life and everyday I think to myself, "Am I the only person who feels like this? Is this really it?"
And its so lovely, in an odd way, to know that someone else feels this.. that I'm not alone.

Im sorry about everything I spell wrong. But I will try my best, and I need to say this.. Anorexia can happen so fast and noone would notices it before its to late. As for me, Im so scared to fall into that. Becuse I think alot of food and my weight etc. thats why I look at vids like this, to realas that its nothing you want to chose if you can. beacuse its your choose to stop eating, to work out to much etc. you do. you just have to stop listen at the voice in your head that says:do not eat....

ANOREXIA isn't a disease......it is a disorder. Most importantly it is a compulsion. And anyone who is alive can develope a compulsion...CONCSIOUSLY or unconsciously. Period.
Yuri92001 2 years ago
If diets worked none of us would be online looking at these videos. I only ate chicken, tuna, fruites, veggies, and water. I run everyday does that make me skinny hell no! If you want to look good you have to do something real about it. I hate when people come on these things and say just diet... we don't need a diet we need a lifestyle change.
2Fat2Luv 2 years ago
That's not entirely true. I eat all the things you eat and I am dtill considered "anorexic", because I limit how much I eat, staying under 1000 calories a day, which is incredibly unhealthy for someone my height. It IS a lifestyle, doing this sort of thing, but you don't have to completely starve yourself, although I do fast once in a while... You can still eat, you just tend to limit yourself. Some people stay away from carbs, some all meat, some all sugar, some sodium.

I agree with you. Eating disorders are not just a trend, this is not something that girls should do just to look pretty in a swimsuit or a tube top. I have tried to put a big fat smiley face on everything to kind of make it seem more light-hearted, maybe for my sake, because of my struggles with this disorder, but I know ultimately if I don't get help I will die.

I still fight between recovery and disorder everyday and either way I always find something to criticize myself over. but, despite what your mind tells you, you are worth it, you are NOT a failure. it isn't natural to be positive @ first. remember that everyone has bad days but, don't let yourself get comfortable with having bad days. get back up and keep working towards a healthy mind first and your body will follow.

i completely agree. and i have to say... having "recovered" is the worst... at least for me. all the feelings are still there, but my body is back to "normal". i'm not anorexia thin anymore, which i know is good. and i'm scared to death to get in shape because i don't want to fall again. and still i pretend like everything's ok... but there's nothing i can do about it. wondering if anyone understands that...

Definitely clearing up a lot of confusion, because there are so many pro-ana, thinspiration vids out there that it's hard to remember that this is an actual DISEASE that kills people. Of course, people in the disease are going to want to justify it by making it their 'cause.'
