what is anorexia
"Do not concentrate immediately on the food... Disordered eating is an attempt to control, hide, stuff, avoid and forget emotional pain, stress and/or self-hate."
- www.somethingfishy.org
It’s a very hard disease to understand, as it twists, turns, manipulates, destroys, and kills the people it infests. There’s an excellent and respected site, www.somethingfishy.org, where we find all the information we need. This site is genuinely anti anorexia. We must not be fooled by many sites that claim to be against the disgusting disease, sometimes they are not, sometimes they provide triggers that can set a person on the path to their own destruction. We must be very careful.
