Anorexia and Bulemia
What do you think of these disorders? (sorry to lump them together) They seem to be a modern occurrence, so can they rightly be categorized as a disease? Are people who suffer from them at personal fault, suffering a true disease, or victims of modern day obsessions?

As I search the net for basic information *hits self for not going to a f*cking library for these things instead*
Answer a few questions to help define the group. Is this woman anorexic?
I'd call her a dream, keep in mind it's from a pro-anorexia site though (not sure if it's a joke) -
I think Zylka has both of them. It's ok Zylka. There's no need to deny it...

#2, same site
I'm frightened that it was part of a fashion show. The shock value of her frame must have been part of raising interest. Kind of like when Armani or Prada or someone sent a male model out in these tight pants with an erection (on purpose)Comment

Re: Anorexia and Bulemia
It is a modern day obsessive disorder IMO, but one with a 10% fatality rate as well as other very serious health complications. I tend to think that as with most disease the person afflicted is not at fault, but nonetheless bears the primary responsibility to get help and cooperate in their treatment.Originally posted by Zylka

auch, could someone explain why these girls think this is what a man wants???
(yeah, yeah, I know the 'gay' theory too)Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

My mum had bulemia for a short spell. I've always been happy with my weight but my parents are always critical, and after changing some medications I've lost a lot more and am concerned. I know I don't have any sort of eating disorder, although right now I'm trying to stuff my face with anything easy. Everyone sees bits and pieces of fat on them in the mirror, but those are things that can take shape into muscle
In any case, it seems 99% of the sufferers are womenComment

...but as there are concrete accounts of mental illness within pre-modern history, does it not seem as something that was produced outside of the body?Originally posted by Ted Striker

I've heard though that latley more and more of them are men.Originally posted by Zylka

When you say your parents are critical of you, do you mean they are critical of your weight? Do they say you are too thin?
That's really messed up, your parents are the #1 place where you get your esteem from. Have you told them to quit criticizing you or are they the type that you can't say something like that to?We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. - Abraham LincolnComment
