TUMBLR AGAINST ANOREXIA
This is just to say, I’m sick of seeing these so-called ‘pro-ana’ comments.
I’m sick of reading ‘Oh, I’m having such a fat day, I had some butter on my single slice of bread, now I’m off to the treadmill lol’
I only ever see anorexic site-models, with perfectly matching lingerie, and painfully thin ribs sticking out.
Everyone is beautiful. I personally think that a woman’s curves are stunning. The UK average is size 12-14, I believe.
So, this is why I’m making a stand.
This is me. This is what a skinny, but healthy 15-year-old-girl is meant to look like.
Sure, I’m thin. But I’m not anorexic. So don’t comment that I am, or that I’m attention-seeking. This took a lot of guts, I’m only 15, and haven’t got my body out properly for anyone.
This is purely to alert people who are ignorant to the fact:
Anorexia is a mental illness.
Sometimes, I hate today’s youth. I see people say ‘Oh, I wish I was anorexic, everything would be better, and people love me, cause I’d be pretty and skinny.’
It’s not a decision. It’s not a fucking blessing, it’s a curse.
There are still people who believe that anorexia is a method of attention-seeking, or just an attempt to loose weight. That’s bollocks. If you don’t believe me, search it in wikipedia.
Eating disorders in any shape or form, not just anorexia, are as serious as any other disease. You wouldn’t say ‘Oh I wish I had cancer, or depression, or schizophrenia’
I have a severely anorexic close friend, and the worst thing about everything, is feeling so helpless. It’s living in full knowledge that I can’t help, and sitting on the sideline, watching it tear her and her family apart. Cause she’s not in control of it, and that’s what makes it so terrifying. It’s a vicious, downward spiral.
So, if you’re reading this (and thank you, to everyone who’s given up their time to do that), support this cause. Reblog, let people know, and hopefully the message will spread, and be heard. If this reaches just one person, I’ll have achieved something.
Because, anorexia is not something to be taken lightly. It’s not something you can make tasteless jokes about, or use as an insult.
It’s not something you can wish upon yourself, or on others. And no one should ever ‘envy someone with anorexia, cause they’re thin’.
