why are you always crying
Quote From: alwyscryng"When I was in my teens/twenties, I was extremely skinny--- not because I was anorexic, though. I never consciously dieted or did anything that caused me to be skinny, just genetics I guess. But it can be a curse as well, I got a lot of jokes about if I stood sideways and stuck out my tongue I looked like a zipper. I was made fun of by alot of people"
Saying stuff like this in NO way helps ED people. The only thing this does is just make us feel bad. We're ana because obviously we get something out of being skinny. No one teases me when I lose- the exact opposite actually. Hey, I didn't say that to be insulting, I was merely commenting on my experience being too thin. It wasn't fun at all, being made fun of and the last thing I would do is to make someone else feel badly. I understand that people with eating disorders think that they look good. The celebs are a lot skinnier these days than when I was a teen, I was only saying that I was one of those people whom everyone commented on and I didn't like the attention. I guess that puts me on the opposite spectrum of this. I have every sympathy for someone who is struggling with serious issues like anorexia, please accept my apology if I offended you.
