Jul 7, 2008 - Speaking as someone who was anorexic for 9 years, and has been in recovery for 5 years, your stomach will reject food that it is not used to. Personally my body refuses to digest oily foods like cheese or chips, and I get severely ill when I eat them. Mentally I am okay with eating them, but my body just cannot handle it, even though I am nearly at a normal weight now.

Jul 7, 2008 - another good reason why grass should be legalized.

VedicResurrection Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Then why don't you eat what your stomach can handle. You don't have to starve yourself because your stomach rejects certain foods. I don't buy you argument.

VedicResurrection Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Yes, yes. Why is this lovely plant illegal? This is why i get pissed off when people tell me how much freedom we have in the USA. It's illegal to grow a lovely plant, so much for freedom. So fucking ridiculous!

VedicResurrection Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - What I did was wrong. I should have never said such a terrible thing about people I disagree with. That was not right. On the other hand, I still think this thing is silly. I doubt it's a disease.

Jul 7, 2008 - It goes a lot deeper than food. I used to have difficulty understanding the logic behind it but it is to do with control. It's an obsession. If you are interested read about the psychology behind it.

VedicResurrection Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - It's lack of spirituality.

bluetigerboy123 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - tis is very sad... i dont think this is a "diesease"... this is a psychological state... People make fun of obese people and call them names, yet an anorexic person is put on the news... Being over anorexic is just as unhealthy as being over weight...

Pinklucy38 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I have recently created a pro-recovery forum for people suffering/recovering from an eating disorder. If you would like the url for the forum feel free to message me as Youtube won't let me post links on here.Take care :)

Jul 7, 2008 - Its terrible what human beings can make others do. I hope she continues to get better and that people really did profit from her expierence. I did.

koikoi90210 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - fuck...this make me cry

SillyJellie Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I really really hope she gets better. At least she recognises the problem, and it's good that she's using her own condition and past she warn the public about the monster that is anorexia. The best of luck to her.

BinaryBible Says:
