    Caution: Nothing in this article should be taken seriously. Do not follow any of the 'excercises' brought out below. Just enjoy the article! Dr. Tina Dupres is best known for her expertise in the areas of anorexia and bulimia, especially in teens. She has written three books on the subject, 1997s The Fat Girl in the Mirror: A Study of Anorexia and Bulimia and 2001s Wasting Away: Real Issues of Anorexia and Bulimia in Teenagers. Her newest, and perhaps most controversial book, Anorexia and Bulimia: A Practical How-To Guide for Teens will be released in early 2005. For more information, go to www.doctordupres.com.

    everthin says on 2008-11-29 20:33:01 about My experience
    Well when I was younger, i was fat. I was discusting, My mum and dad and people at school told me I as fat. I weighed about 8 stone and I was 4' 9'(10 years). Anorexia made me happy. It's the reason that I sleep at night. I'm 14 now I'm 5 foot tall and I'm 84 pounds and a size 6 pants don't fit me anymore. But im in therapy and i'm fighting it because i can still see that little fat kid in the mirror and i hate her. I'll be perfect one day, tiny and all those people who called me fat will w jelous of me and im glad that my mum cries at night because she thinks im going to die because she made me what i am. Shes the one thats making me starve myself because she made me feel like I was worthless.
    Never call anyone fat because it can have bad effects. I wouldn't want anyone to end up like me.

    this is too sick to be real. I suffered, I am 13. However, I was willing to get my life back. i gained back 14 lbs in 1 week. do u think that is sick u ano bitches? do u think I am fat, u ED sluts? i'm 13 5'8" and 112lbs. does that motivate u to be skinnier than me? u will all die and burn in hell. i'm healthy and loving it. Why don't u give it a try?

    Girls, honestly.
    any guy i know(inluding me , becasuse im a guy)would rather be with a girl who loves her self and is confident.
    Pretty much all the guys i know (except the sick and twisted ones (which you wouldnt want to be with anyways)) wouldnt want to be with a girl because they're skinny, it's the personality.
    i would never want to be with a girl whose skin and bones, i would feel like i would break them.
    You guys should love yourselfs. Im sure your beautiful. Just focuse of the stuff you like about youself and if theirs nothing you like focuse on something that makes you happy OTHER then straving yourself ! .
    i know you can do it .

    OH . personally. i think everyone should chill . dont get to worked up about this. your just going to stress your self out more.

    AND if you think its funny to make fun of people it's not cool. honestly. they are soo much better then you. I hope you know that.

    The article was deleted before I got here, but the comments are enough to tell me what was in it.
    I'm seventeen, senior in high school, have a boyfriend, had good grades, was a cheerleader. Now, I'm 5'9 and 85 lbs, my body no longer accepts solid food, and the doctors have sent me home to die. Because I wanted to be 'thin', I'm not going to see my high school graduation, not going to college, and my boyfriend will be at a funeral sometime soon. Laying down, standing up, sitting down, it's impossible to be comfortable when the bones are just poking through your skin. My hair used to be thick, there's barely any left. The nails I used to love are brittle and yellow, my teeth are gray and rotted, and my skin is dull and patchy. I'm in two sweatshirts and a blanket, but I'm shivering because my internal regulation isn't working anymore. I can barely walk, and my organs are starting to shut down. It's far from painless, too, if I can be so discreet.

    It's not funny. I'm dying, alongside hundreds of others, and we're being satired.

    Fuck that. Live. If for nothing else, because I didn't have the chance to. I'm not going to see eighteen. Be something more than anorexia. Please.

    I used to be bulimic and anorexic. I lost 55lbs in a month a kept it off for about 2 years. Now that i'm in college it's been 4 years since i started being anorexic and i've gained 30lbs since then. I want to go anorexic again. life seemed so simple.
