Also, celebrities don't cause eating disorders-celebrities can trigger them-just because you look at a photo of a thin person, doesn't mean that will drive you into Anorexia-Anorexic people-this is a fact-already have something wrong in their brains-genetics, biology, the way the person thinks, all these things have an affect on whether or not a person will develop anorexia-Anorexia is also the least common eating disorder-in fact, most people today are being diagnosed with Eating disorder not otherwise specified, because you have to meet a strict criteria to be diagnosed as Anorexic-Anorexia doesn't just happen because a girl flips open a magazine, sees a skinny celebrity and decides to eat less at meal times-this disease is way, way more complex than that-also, most anorexic people are highly intelligent, talented, deeply thoughtful and insightful people-we are not vain and superficial like people like to assume

I am 13 years old and am 5,1 I weigh 96 pounds. I mean I guess I should eat more. I don't throw up on purpose I just don't eat. People say I have an eating disorder. So if they r so sure what's the name of my eating disorder.

thanks for the photo credit, I'm glad you liked it :)

"When one has anorexia as a teenager, they could become overweight when they are an adult and finally start eating." -

Interesting article.

Your hearing from someone who has had anorexia themselves. @Sarah, Im sorry but its not just being in pain like that. It makes you want to intentionally hurt or harm yourself to make yourself feel more pain. Its a form of self torture. You can also be raised with people telling you you are fat or other influences like family members who are. But, you are right that not all anorexics want to be skinny.

The name of this article should be changed to "7 reason why people develop Anorexia" For one thing, no one can simply "become" anorexic-anorexia strikes people unexpectedly-its never a choice-by saying people "become" anorexic, you are making it sound like people somehow are responsible for making themselves sick like this-and that's wrong-no one with anorexia chose it and no one that suffers with it should be blamed-also. boys get anorexia too-its not just a disease strictly for girls
