im with ya on that. never enough bones. i never think its good enough. i want the lie down stomach, standing up.

yeah me too, and the hip bones that stick out, i think that makes me and you feel really gd about our selfs, so since some one else thinks like me i guess it anint bad, its a gd thing we are en-joying our bodies

yep it's great, soooo sexy to lose control of your bodily functions, and you get a great tan when you become jaundaced because your liver can't function...ooh and rotting teeth, REAL glamorous, and later in life you'll get a really hot cane because you'll have osteoperosis. So VERY sexy.

Good job Fazer!!!!!!!

I do, but that's part of the ED and something we all need to work on getting over. The old saying "it's what's on the inside that counts" is true but I think most of us don't feel good on the inside so we feel we have to make up for it on the outside. To recover we have to get past wanting that or thinking that looks good.

We're here for support, not fucking criticism.

Just because someone else feels the same way about jutting bones as you doesn't mean it's a good thing. It's not criticism from where I'm at, it's concern that you are glamorising your eating disorder and receiving positive reinforcement. It worries me a bit that others may read your comments and feel it's OK to want to be that thin.
Complicated, huh! There's a fine line between wanting support and making others feel bad. We're all here for the same reason; to feel better about ourselves, and we can't please everyone all the time.

well thank you very much for all ur replies, i didnt mean for it yo sound like it was glam or anything like that but some off us do feel like that when we think we are acheving something, i have already had so much abuse on this DS site and its really driving me crazy here u can be urself yeah rite ppl here are just as nasty as those who dont understand, Juice and kenykat and peperg7 i have no problems with u but the ppl who think that being negative will help shouck me or others outta our frame off mind no it wont ur nasty comments just make me and others feel bad, why is it when u think u can have help others tear you down?

Do you REALLY think it's a good thing?

Kids may be reading this, when they read something like that what does that tell them about eating disorders?

It is thinking like this that will keep you from recovery, and just as you are free to speak your mind so am I by giving an opposing opinion.
If I went onto the self injury forum and posted how good it felt to feel a cool razor slice into my skin....do you think that would be appropriate?

This stuff just pisses me off. I'm sorry if I'm harsh, but like I said, opposing opinion.

As said before. If you want to post something like this put a warning on it.
I feel particularly bad today and have found this post a bit triggering.
However that does not mean no-one else should be allowed to ask for support, even if it does not make sense to others.
I have a feeling sometimes, but feel I can't post on here for fear of upsetting people or making others worse.
Is that how this site should be?

ok i did say sorry to u ppl or did u not see it what do i have to do huh?
should i say it again? SORRY ! is that better?

yes i wrote that but then i wrote back and said sorry, if i was on the self injury and i read some one loved how it felt to drag a razor against their bodies i wuld try to nice and offer help and wuld make them feel bad, and no offence i was told to come on and admitt my secret thoughts cause ppl wuld understand and i guess this person was wrong, i said sorry twicw now what do u want next huh? i know u are just worried about ppl saying things like this and everyone has a rght to say what they want to say i understand but next time if any one has a problem with me why not send a private mesg so i dont come online i cry because i thought sharing my feelings was gonna help me so what if i said one bad thing i did say sorry so next just mail me

i used to think i looked dead sexy when my jeans were held up by my hipbones, you could see straight down my trousers ; )

hey some of what was said has been rather mean i think there woried about you but went the rong way about it its great that you feel sexy in your body but you must no that the way your going is not healthy?
i apretiate yout opinion and take it to heart but im worried that if you carry on youll end up very ill well take care
luv kate

You know, I have to say that this post reminds me of my 12-year-old self, thinking that if I could just starve a little more the muscles in my thighs would disappear. And then Mommy would love me.

To be honest, I never see bones or ribs or cheekbones, and when I do get to that point, all I see is ghostly white skin and blue lips...and lord knows the goth look is still not "in." I hate going to stores where my female counterparts shop and getting glares like "ewwwwww" from them. And I hate that I can't have sex with my husband because I'm too sick.

To the OP: Wake up and smell the coffee- eating disorders are not pretty, or sexy...and when you refuse to grow up by wearing kids' clothes, it means you'll never amount to anything. Period.

People are getting upset because this post has raised a huge issue: What is daily strength here for? We post things which are very personal and often raw, so sometimes we don't think about the effect it has on others. What we should all be proud of is that we are strong enough to share our opinions in public, and what we should all remember is that we will never be able to please everyone, but that we can still treat each other with respect and kindness. HardlyHar, Kate is right in that people are concerned for you. Don't be sad that others disagree with you, but concentrate on getting well.
