Oh boyyyy. This sort of thing worries me greatly. How many other women out there feel this way? If you don't know, it's quite a number! It's killing many of them. And telling people to 'get therapy' doesn't work, unfortunately. Instead of bitching at people to 'get better' it might be an idea to try helping these girls and offering them support. They're in your lives; open up your eyes and you'll see the girls who are struggling with it.

This is an illness that freaks me the fuck out. There is no medicine for it, folks. There's no quick fix. It isn't as simple as 'see a psychiatrist, a dietician, a counsellor'. It is integral that society begin to see that this is a very serious disorder that needs loads more attention (and not attention that glorifies or glamorizes it, like America's Next Top Model) paid to it. The problem is directly linked to society's depicition of what makes a woman beautiful. We need to start believing that beauty has nothing to do with how much we weigh, and derogatory, rude comments directed at sick people DOES NOT HELP.

If you want to see the devestating effects this disease has on women your age, check out the documentary 'Thin' (you can find it on Youtube). You'll be shocked and terrified, but this is how women around the world feel and think. It's pretty important to get familiar with it.

And I really hope the girl who posted this secret will be able to see its mortality in a direct way. So often it's what's needed.
