starve and infatuate upon all of this new worlds beauty. Anorexia nervosa and Bulemia. They overtake you and control you. Never good enough. skinnier! Me? oh, well I am anorexic, no one notices, but I don’t care. They look at me and say I need to eat. I just tell them I eat all the time, not completely a lie, I used to eat all the time. Call me fat, call me skinny, I won’t care. I’ll never eat either way. I love bones and blood, mine that is.

Those are serious psychological disorders and I hope that you’re getting professional help. If you are open to differing opinions, I find a healthy body to be the most attractive. The kind where a person gets the proper nutrition and exercise needed to maintain the right weight for one’s age and height.
You might be aware that some people who are anorexic/bulimic end up damaging their health for their entire lives and what has been gained from that? Of course it’s usually not the eating disorder that’s the main problem, it usually stems from something deeper, all the more reason I hope that you’re seeing a therapist since I think there’s little that one could say here to help you change/get better.
I really doubt that loseone needs to hear your opinion about what you find attractive or not. That is a really unhelpful thing to say, imo.
By the same token I don’t need to hear your opinion on my opinion, you’re being offensive, obnoxious and unhelpful towards me.
If LostOne has an issue with anything I wrote, she can address me directly, no one appointed you to be her spokesperson.
Eating disorders end up shrinking your brain due to lack of nutrition and that contributes even more to the eating disorders because your judgement is impaired, and you become increasingly delusional as the cycle continues. PLEASE stop. It pains me when others do this to themselves. Remember, you’re hurting others around you. Here are a few Google search results that may aid you if you actually take the initiative to search them up (just copy and paste). You’ve shown that you want to get help by coming here, and you’ve taken the initiative to do so by writing about it in hopes that you may find help. Confronting your problems and expressing them was a step in the right direction. Please take the initiative to help yourself further by contacting a website or help line that is actually qualified to help you, PLEASE.

Sorry you’re in so much pain. I understand the mental disease when it comes to body image. I wish you the best and hope you’re seeking help.
I think it’s unhelpful to call her eating disorder a ‘mental disease’, I don’t think she really needs to hear your opinion on body image, imo.
“Mental illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions — disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors.”
Please, go be oversensitive somewhere else.
Oh wait, you’re the one that THIS person was being oversensitive towards in the first place. I apologize. I literally mistook you for her doing the same thing cuz I didn’t read your names.
Glad you got that sorted out. Yes I was giving her a little taste of her own vitriol. These petty squabbles could be avoided if people like Claritee were aware of their own hypocrisy.
Eh, who knows, she/he’s probably a social justice warrior who gets offended by and preaches about “micro-aggressions”… just kidding. I think what he/she meant was that since the poster was suffering from eating disorders, you shouldn’t tell her that you find this or that unhealthy/healthy or attractive because if she is overweight, it could simply trigger her to engage even more actively in her eating disorder from a desire to be healthy/attractive.
The reason I got upset over this was because it’s not as if a person can suddenly stop being anorexic or bulimic based on someone saying what body image they find attractive. It’s completely ridiculous. The mere idea that it would lostone would read it and then start changing his/her behavior is absurd.
After I made the comment however, I thought about maybe I shouldn’t have made the comment at all though. After all this is a site where an argument shouldn’t take place and we’re all here because we feel really shitty anyway. So, I am sorry for making a fuss over this.
Not a SJW, haha. But I am vocal about shit like this. And I see nothing wrong with calling this a mental disease, as it is… which is why it can’t be cured by someone stating what they find attractive or not. Just like you can’t cure the flu by telling someone with the flu that you find wellness attractive. lol
I’m done here.
BTW, I’m sort of a mixed bag when it comes to SJW stuff. Most of it is ridiculous. I love people like Sam Harris, Dave Rubin, The Amazing Atheist (sometimes), Jordan Peterson… but I don’t like Sargon of Akkad and some other anti-SJW people.
thank you to all 🙂
Did you check out the sites I provided for you? I’m worried… 🙁
Hey LostOne, please don’t listen to ppl on here telling you that what you’re doing is a “mental disease”, or recommending sites for you to “get help” or “fix yourself”.
There’s nothing wrong with your choices, and at the end of the day bulemia and anorexia are just that. Choices. Just like being healthy is a choice. And if you’re happy the way you are, then so am I.
That being said, LostOne, why are you on SP if you’re okay with the choices you’re making? I mean…this isn’t exactly a happy place where people that are satisfied with their lives congregate. Please let me know!
You’re clearly an idiot. You’re being immensely immature and irresponsible by encouraging this person’s self abusive habit and saying it’s not a big deal. It is.
“Mental illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions — disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, EATING DISORDERS and addictive behaviors.”
Bulemia and anorexia literally cause imbalances in the brain that cause the person to spiral down into their self abusing habit even more as they become increasingly delusional and dissatisfied with their appearance, it can sometimes even lead to death.
It’s like you’re saying “HEY, I’M A FUCKING CHILD, IT’S OKAY TO CONTINUE ON WITH YOUR SELF ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR, I’LL JUST SIT ON THE SIDELINES AND CHEER AS YOU LITERALLY HURT YOURSELF AND POSSIBLY LEAD YOURSELF TO DEATH! I’M BEING SUPPORTIVE!!”
God, I hope you never become a parent. TRY BEING A RESPONSIBLE ADULT AND STOP GIVING PEOPLE “ADVICE” THAT WILL HARM THEM AND POSSIBLY KILL THEM. IT’S NOT ABOUT PEOPLE BEING ”DISSATISFIED WITH THEIR LIVES” YOU FUCKING MORON. IT’S ABOUT PEOPLE WANTING TO HELP SOMEONE WHO OBVIOUSLY CAN’T HELP THEMSELVES. YOU ARE NOT “HELPING” YOU ARE MAKING THE SITUATION WORSE. IMBECILE.
You realize ad hominem attacks and writing in all caps isn’t proving anything to anyone right?
Also you said “RY BEING A RESPONSIBLE ADULT AND STOP GIVING PEOPLE “ADVICE” THAT WILL HARM THEM AND POSSIBLY KILL THEM.”
But the title of this site is suicideproject. It’s not a place where we blatantly reject suicide, or self harm. It’s a place where we accept it and help others work through their suffering. Putting up a brick wall and telling people they’re in the wrong is not a solution. Your comments are only harming others. So you should stop.
YOU ARE A FUCKING IMBECILE. Just because we do not reject people with self harm problems does not mean we embrace those problems as a good thing. Are you a fucking troll? I did not tell her she was a bad person for doing what she does, I merely told her that she should seek from a professional because she obviously is seeking help that we cannot provide. We don’t reject suicide, we respect people’s opinion if they feel they truly need to die, but we do not OPENLY ENCOURAGE THEM to kill themselves, because they may just be going through a rough spot that they can potentially overcome. Even if you are a troll, I’m going to have to keep engaging your stupidity to prevent any unnecessary harm from befalling this person if they are young and vulnerable enough to buy into your stupid ideas.
I’m actually not a troll. I’ve been on here for many, many years, so if anyone’s the troll it’s you. You should read her post again.
She wasn’t asking for your help. She was in fact stating that she was happy with who she was, and you were telling her that who she was is not okay. You should read her post again :).
Wow. So many arguments over a few words. People are psychologically fucked.
But so am I
