Oct 13, 2008 - Wow, that was deep. Thank you for showing the TRUE, dark and ugly truth about anorexia. I used to be anorexic when I was about 15 and have recently relapsed and watching this video hit home. I don't understand why so many young girls have to suffer from this horrible disease. Thank you so much for sharing your story. You are very brave and I admire you immensely for your strength. Take care.

Oct 13, 2008 - Good on you for making this - I hope it helps some people. I have never had an eating disorder - so it's hard for me to understand how people can not realise that you will destroy your body if you don't eat properly... but obviously some people don't get this ... so thanks to you sharing your story maybe some other people won't get sick. That's great : )

Oct 13, 2008 - that was really amazing. i don't know that much about the effects of eating disorders, but what i have been told or read about, has NEVER been shown to me in the way that you have shown us. thanks for being strong and helping those who need it.

Pinklucy38 Says:

Oct 13, 2008 - I run a forum for people recovering/suffering from eating disorders. It is a pro-recovery site that promotes positive body image and gives people a place to talk about their struggle with an ED. If you would like the URL for the forum send me a message as YouTube won't let me post links! x

Oct 13, 2008 - I didn't believe in the physical consequences either until i started loosing my hair. Actually truth be told it was when i got pregnant and my doctor told me that if i gave birth at my weight i would probably die during birth. Also have trouble digesting food and get sick all the time, always lightheaded cant even go up stairs. And countless other symptoms i wont even describe
