Anorexia Nervosa: Signs, Symptoms, Causes, Effects, and Treatments

A new trend for some is to refer to their condition as if it were a real person calling their 'friend' Ana or Mia (shortened versions of anorexia and bulimia).

You continue to think you look fat when you loose weight and before you lost weight you were normal or a little over weight your friends noticing your not eating you noticing your not eating you loose lots of weight and still think your fat and you usually eat barley anything to nothing and you should tell your parents so you and them can see a doctor and get on a diet so you will gain some weight back and keep you healthy

From what I know, usually anorexia and bulimia start as an eating disorder. So like, skipping meals once in a while and throughing up your food on a weekly basis. But after that it kind of gets into a pattern and continues to get worse and worse. You don't just wake up one morning and decide that you are going to starve yourself for the next month. But if you do see anyone or even yourself getting into this habit, stop it before its too late. And you might regret it. Take it from my experiences, even if you have the slightest feeling like someone is doing it. Confront them and keep an eye on them
Hope this helps good luck

I was anorexic about 2 years ago. I stopped eating, and told my mom I ate when she wasnt' home. I started liking and being proud of that hungry feeling. If you or someone you know is anorexic, get help!

I am anorexic, and have been for 4 years on and off. There are many things to notice about an anorexic. Firstly they may seem very tired and probably bad skin from lack of vitimins and nutrients (but makeup may cover that) and they avoid breakfast with an excuse, usually they are in a rush or can't eat in the mornings. They will also avoid all meals or eat only a few mouthfuls off a plate if around other people... but also they may eat it all and disappear to the toilet to throw up. It's a very secretive life, and everything evolves arounds food and how not to eat it without people noticing... but obviously the most noticeable thing is drastic weight loss... which they may hide behind baggy clothes.
Also they will have a distorted view of their body and may say to friends how fat they are and pick at their own bodies... even though they most certainly are not overweight.
If you see these symptoms on any friend, don't just confront them, show them that you care and you want to help them and explain how they will not only hurt themselves but others who care around them. But if this is yourself please realise what you are doing to your body and think about how long left you will have if you carry on...
