When people are unhappy and they want their problems to disappear, they should talk to their family or friends or go to their doctor; however, some people use alcohol, or drugs, or begin to have eating disorders. These people are often unhappy about their appearance. They think, “If I were thinner, I would be happier.” Maybe there are other things they can't control in their lives and one thing they can control is the amount of food they eat and the weight they lose. These people usually wear a happy face and don't talk about their feelings, so the disorder gets worse.. Watch the following commercial on anorexia and start to think about it.
Now it is time to learn a bit. Did you know that there are two types of anorexia?
a. Anorexia nervosa. People with anorexia nervosa think they are fat. They almost stop eating because they want to be thin. They are often under the normal weight for their size. They always think about calories, make excuses for not eating, or eat very small amounts and do a great deal of exercise. Some use laxatives or diuretics to help them lose weight and others make themselves vomit after eating. If anorexics do not get help they may become so ill that they die. However, people like Kate Moss have found help and have gone on to have healthier lives and successful careers.

b. Bulimia. People with bulimia eat large amounts of food very quickly when they are alone. This is called bingeing. After bingeing, they make themselves vomit. Like anorexics, they may exercise too much and use laxatives and diuretics. Princess Diana got over her problem with bulimia and wanted to help others with eating disorders.
The following video shows the truth of eating disorders
Have you built your own opinion about eating disorders? Here you are a song by Dead Celebrity Status to help you a little bit more. Enjoy the melody and the lyrics because the images are really disgusting.
"Somebody I Once Knew"
LYRICS:
"She wasn't born anorexic, but nowadays she suffers,
staring at these half-naked stars on magazine covers.
feeling pressured by the public.
She only weighs 90 pounds but still sucks in her stomach.
On the inside she's dying, lying to herself, thinking:
- 5 more pounds won't jeopardize my health.
One day she might just collapse, she can't avoid it.
Too many sleepless nights spent bent over a toilet.
Spewing vomit, like she was an alcoholic.
Praying to a God she never believed in to stop it.
Hasnt eaten in weeks, drinks water by the heaps
Now she looks like a skeleton she sees in her closet.
So close to death she can taste it, body looks wasted.
Hates life, hates you, hates the way she looks naked.
Now she's feeling drowsy, lousy,
thinking maybe this world's better off without me
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind.
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind.
She staring at her belly, she's so scared to touch it,
imagining the feeling when it kicks inside her stomach.
Too late for safe sex, should have used a latex.
She can't afford a baby on minimum wage paychecks.
Her waistline climbs by inches,
''cause she traded in the morning workouts for morning sickness.
Feeling nauseous, sleeps on a mat because she's cautious.
Give life or take life, that's her only options.
Only if she had a magic wand, she'd go back to that night
and put her clothes back on.
But she can't change time, or what's growing inside.
How could she love something that's barely alive?
Her body's acheing, shaking, from sweaty palms, and cold sweat.
Mentally exhausting like phone sex.
No regrets, life or death, it's high stakes.
''cause right or wrong, it's only her choice to make.
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind.
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind.
[Side]
- Help!
[Girl:] You smell like perfume. That's NOT mine.
[Guy:] Your head's going fucking crazy, Your head is going crazy.
You need to sit down and look in the mirror and look after myself.
[Girl:] What? What's so wrong with me that you can't love me?
[Guy:] Look-
[Girl:] What is wrong with me? I do everything for you.
I, I, I make myself look good, I go to the gym.
I, I eat like a fucking rabbit.
I don't, I don't know what else to do.
Tell me.
[Guy:] Baby, you don't understand because-
[Girl:} Just tell me what i have to do
[Guy:] Baby-
[Girl:] What it is I have to do to make you love me.
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind.
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind.
I'm so sorry for all that I've done,
I'm so sorry for what I've become.
I'm so sorry, so sorry for wasting your time,
I can't hold you back ''cause I'm losing my mind".
