hi i'm an anorexic and i'm sick and tired of people telling me that eating junk food "isn't healthy" like um. bitch. in case you haven't noticed i'm 164 cm tall and weigh abt 43 kg (not to mention i've been gaining weight, i was dangerously low at one point), so just be glad i'm eating at all?

i'm trying my best. everyone with an eating disorder is.

in conclusion:

don't poke fun at or criticize the food choices of those with eating disorders. be glad they're eating. feel free to offer them healthy snacks in a KIND way or nicely guide them in the right direction. but don't criticize, it just makes it worse. be their support, not their worst critic.

edit, 6 months later: i'm like 49 kg now and i grew 1 cm and i feel so much happier and i am eating three good meals a day (snacking here and there, too). yeah maybe eating a family sized bag of doritos wasn't ideal but it got FOOD in me, and it got my body used to needing food and made me...wait for it...hungry! so i actually felt urges to EAT and EAT RIGHT! i ran a 5k for charity recently and if school allowed i would do many more. i work out a lot and i have abs (not suuuper defined, but they're there and i look a heck of a lot better now that u can't see my rib cage jutting out of my skin like some rotting skeleton) and i've been pretty positive lately! i was recently hospitalized for a health issue but it was resolved super quickly compared to normal (IDK, maybe bc i'm healthy??? :000) and HEY! GUESS WHAT YA ASSHATS?? i'm way happier than i've been in my life! but i couldn't have done it without tricking my body into wanting to be healthy! and i can safely say i got here BY MYSELF! 'twas nobody but ME who kicked my ass to get me on the right track, damn it! i got no one to thank! just a whole lotta "fuck you"s to give to people who think they know someone else's body better than they know it themselves!!! :))
