Get the anorexia mug.Anorexia is not something that one 'decides to have.' Believe me, I know. Anorexia nervosa is a serious disease, in which one fears becoming fat so badly, that they become obsessed with their food intake. It is often genetic, and sometimes children learn from their Mothers behavior, if she has an eating disorder. If you were meant to have an eating disorder, there is no way for you to avoid the onset of your disease. I haven't had this disease for long, but I've already lost close to 15 lb, in a time where my body is still supposed to be growing. People who only like thin partners, and peers who make fun of bigger people, are only making the situation worse for those of us who have eating disorders. It's not that easy to simply 'eat a cheeseburger' or 'realise you're not fat.' Anorexia is mentally gruelling, and makes everything in life difficult. Mine has gotten to a point, where I constantly analyze fat intake. I can't eat not one piece of food, without thinking of what it will do to me.
A word to the wise *Bulimia is eating large quantities of food, and voluntarily throwing it up. Known as binge and purge. While some anorexics may throw up the little of what they eat, they do not binge. There is a difference, and I suggest that those of you who don't know what you're talking about just keep your mouths shut*

Get the anorexia mug.A very serious disease, which isn't always self inflicted. When a person, has a fear of becoming fat, so they don't eat. It is normally a female, because women are praised if they look good, and men are looked up upon if they have a high status or good job. They have a need to control something in their life, so they completely control their weight(thats what a Psychologist said). It can also be because of: fear of food, fear of becoming fat, or after a trauma in their life. They normally like cooking too.
Sigmund Freud also said its because they subconsciously want to look like a penis, but many people dissagree with his studies.

Get the anorexia mug.A newly recognized trend among girls and young women who view their anorexia or food restriction as a choice and/or a lifestyle, and not as a disease. Often abbreviated as "pro-ana".
Many websites and YouTube videos advocating the pro-anorexia lifestyle and encouraging solidarity amongst anorexics have been springing up recently, causing concern to health professionals and parents who fear that children might be easily influenced to "become anorexic" by them.
There is a similar pro-bulimia movement which is often lumped together with the anorexic community, called "pro-mia" or "pro-ana/mia". Some websites are directed at providing support and friendship for all eating disorder sufferers in general (including overeating), or people who engage in self-harming behaviours such as cutting.
Most of these websites claim to provide support only, and not encouragement to start or maintain an eating disorder.

Candace: "I'm pro-anorexia. I restrict my food intake. I have a strong desire to be thin, and I don't consider myself to be mentally ill. I know exactly what I'm doing. Therefore my anorexia is a way of life, not an illness."

Get the pro-anorexia mug.It's a MENTAL DISEASE, nobody chooses to have anorexia, UNLESS if your a 'WANNAREXIC''.
Basically, it's a disease were you have a poor body image and want to be really skinny. And it really, really sucks. You can't exactly get rid of it, I mean you can get your eating habits better if you get help but just because you start eating doesn't mean anything! It never really goes away, and it's awful.
It's more common with young girls, not really common with guys.
