For the past few weeks, they've been previewing an upcoming Dr. Phil show entitled "Scary Skinny." FINALLY, the date-to-air was posted on his web-site for Friday, Nov. 9th (today.) I was really looking forward to tuning in as there was going to be an update on a young lady who was on last season weighing only 62 lbs. I was really eager to see how she's doing NOW, since the Great Dr. Phil's intervention about a year ago.
So on Thursday night, the Great Bald One was a guest on the Larry King Live show, and he was talking about that "Dog" character and his usage of the "N" word recently, and he said he'd be discussing the topic on his Friday's show with some minister (or something) named Bishop. WTF!!
I was SO pissed off that the ED show got bumped for some stupid celebrity's misfortunate slip of the tongue. I'm bloody tired of EDs taking a back seat to everything in this society and not getting the attention it deserves! I feel like they just use us as filler-in-freak-shows to fulfill people's morbid curiosity, and get more ratings when there's nothing "better" to talk about.
Anyways, I wrote to the show telling them that by bumping the show, they're only showing people with EDs that we don't really matter, and again, we get swept under the carpet till a later date (who know when.)
I get so freakin' mad sometimes, people!

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
Tyra Banks is another one of these phonies. It's like, she has programmes on "being yourself" and then she'll have programmes on how to get a makeover and look pretty in makeup. It's like, okay, that's just bullshit.
