Shocked
I found this pro-anorexia community on LJ today while randomly following links in peoples' profiles and I have to say that I'm deeply shocked.
Of course I know that things like anorexia and bulimia exist and I know that not everyone sees them as a serious disease, but this obvious display did shake and disturb me. You should read the comments of those young girls congratulating eachother for having eaten nothing else all day except for an apple and diet coke.

I think the people who are really suffering from anorexia DO realize and know that they are hurting themselves, as many of them have said themselves, but are still unable to stop, which makes it such a horrible condition.
What scares me as much are the many girls (and guys evidently) who start fasting and pruging and all that stuff, as they call it to be like some imaginary idol and then end up anorexic and bulimic.
