I have to say, being on this site a matter of hours, I have already picked up on fucking wanabes.
Wana-rexics. Wana-mias. Aww how cute.
I'm not gonna single anyone out. That's just mean.
But it pisses the hell out of me that people just one day decide that they're suffering from an ED, and make the diagnosis themselves.
If you diagnose yourself with an ED, you probably don't have one IMO.
I like the "Recovery" sub-forum. I'm so glad to see people are trying their best and not treating their ED as a frigging diet or "lifestyle choice". So good luck to all you people in recovery. :-)
I don't have an ED. I'm glad I don't have an ED. I wouldn't ever want one.
Sometimes I purge when I've eaten loads. Doesn't mean I have an ED.
Sometimes I go days on end without eating. Doesn't mean I have an ED.
I exercise to a point where I can't walk, I read food labels obsessively (and shockingly, Food Standards do not moderate food labels as much as they should, so a large majority of food labels are inaccurate. FYI.).
But I do not have an ED. Doing these things does not mean you have an ED.
*Silently screams with frustration*
I can totally see though how some people are accepting of it. Being in control is an addiction. It's a hard one to quit. I know this. I'm "recovering" from SI. And it's fricken hard.
So I have no problem with people saying they're happy with their ED. I was happy cutting. I did it like three times a day, even at college. It was great :-D
But it's these people who are immature, who know so little about EDs and just think because they've followed the 2468 or ABC "diet" that they are anorexic or bulimic.
I know very little about EDs myself. I will not lie, or claim falsely to know EVERYTHING about EDs.
I know enough to know when someone is just a fricken wana D:<
