There is a huge eating-disorder culture in which the sufferers support each other in their disorder. I am guessing that she is either a sufferer who is I am confused. They support each other in their disorder or in surviving/overcoming the disorder? deeply entrenched in this culture and is doing her part to perpetuate the illness, or she is a vulture out to profit from other people's pain. Either way, she is very sick. They support each other in PERFORMING the behaviours consistent with the eating disorders. There are websites, if you do a google search on pro anorexia or something similar...very very sick. And sad. It's what our society in large has done to our females. -- The Blessed Fiddy, Patroness Saint of the Disorganized LC in Sunny So Cal Personality Development Specialist (Full-Time Mom!) |

This is serious. Doing a quick google search I also found a website that
she posts too. With the same or similar bracelets. I can't tell if she is looking for help or justification. Being a former Ana. It is hard and you want to keep it a secret. I can't imagine wanting praise for what you are doing. I constantly felt like crap and for some reason enjoyed that. When things start getting out of control eating is one thing you can control. Once I cried for two hours trying to make myself eat a pop tart. I think Ana has more to do with depression and control than anything to do with eating. I often will find my self slipping back into non-eating. I just don't think about it. So I can see where a person might want a reminder to eat. OK my two cents. Probably TMI (too much info) -Amy http://www.empressbeads.com "Dr. Sooz" wrote in message oups.com... Im not sure if this group is active or not, looks like everyone spams here.. ?? Any real people ? Is this serious, or a joke? |

That's good to know...it would be nice if you'd state that in your auctions.

Not TMI and I think you are right, it's a control issue.
Sending you strength...I'm sure every day has it's own challenges. -- -- Barbara www.penguintrax.com eBay: penguintrax Justbeadsenguintrax 0 /O\ There is a very fine line between a hobby and mental illness.

It is a serious mental illness.
