Tanorexic

A person who is so afraid of having white skin (whether delusively or realistically) that they tan themselves constantly, far more than what is deemed healthy.

- "I see that girl at the tanning salon EVERY day! She is so tanorexic."

- "I'm afraid I'm becoming tanorexic, I can't go more than a few days without tanning before I start to feel pale!"

wanarexic

One who wishes to become anorexic. Generally a young female under 13 years of age who believes anorexia nervosa is a lifestyle choice rather than a mental illness. Often she makes an active decision to "start ana" in order to drop a few pounds. She may engage in anorexic behaviors such as self-starvation, but the root of her dieting is not the same as one who genuinely suffers from an eating disorder. Her desire to become anorexic may fade when she sees the true consequences... or when she sees a shiny object.

That girl wouldn't be such a wanarexic if she knew how painful eating disorders really are.

Tanorexic

Tanorexia nervosa is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a tanning disorder characterized by a distorted tone perception and the persistent thought that no matter how dark a person gets, he or she still believes they are not tan enough.
The social repercussions usually lead to disillusionment and depression on the part of the friendless, Tanorexic individual and more seriously, severe health problems.

"I don't know how to tell her, but she looks like a cheese doodle. The girl is tanorexic."
