She looked kind of upset at the end of it, you never hear her talk of her anorexia or her past I'm guessing that was why?

[stad97]

@Mietar

look, never mind. point is, i don't know why you're even arguing or disagreeing or anything with me, because i have no idea what's happening any more, so we should just stop.

[Mietar]

@stad97 Yes, and Doctor Who is still a big part of what I'm talking about.

I... Really don't know what to say to that.

And I know you never said I was attacking you. I was just attempting to make sure that I wasn't perceived as being aggressive when such was not my intention.

[stad97]

@Mietar

yeah, for doctor who.

yes, long definitions.

ya, never said you were attacking me.

[Mietar]

@stad97 You also said 'definitely' in there, if you care to recall.

Long definitions? Seriously? That's about as basic as I could get it. :S

Look, I'm not attacking you either. I'm not even saying you're wrong. But the quotes she gives heavily suggest that she was behaving in a way that would fall under the catergory of Anorexia. As a pseudo addiction, it is as easy to relapse into those behaviour patterns as it is with any other addiction. I'd sooner judge by her words than your observations.

[stad97]

@Mietar

ok, three things.

first, i said probably.

second, please don't give long definitions.

third, please never call me hun ever again.

i wasn't saying you were definitely wrong, i was merely saying that i thought it may not have been quite anorexia. besides, i said most people.

[Mietar]

@stad97 There's a lot more to anorexia nervosa than whether or not a person 'looks starved', hun. It is defined as "A disorder characterized by fear of becoming fat and refusal of food, leading to debility and even death".

Just because she didn't LOOK stick thin doesn't mean the psychological issues were not present. Losing a lot of weight is a symptom of the disorder, NOT the disorder itself.

[stad97]

@Mietar

but even when she was singing, she didn't look realy starve. you know, most anerexics, you can see it. so she probably wasn't eating properly, but wasn't anerexic. that would be a lot more extreme. and definitely during Doctor Who, she wasn't anerexic, you could see it. i'm not denying there may have been a time when she wasn't fully eating properly. i don't know about that, so i won't say much on it, but just from what i could see, she wasn't quite anorexic you know.

@nlei11 That's something I've always loved about Billie. In her acting too. With Rose she wasn't she played it very emotionaly without worrying about "oh is my mascera going to run" I have a lot of respect for her.
