Those suffering from anorexia are in need of help and proper guidance. Unfortunately, many anorexics don't know where to look for an eating disorder treatment center that can offer them the help they need. Anorexia help can be found in many different places ranging from anorexia help forums, to help professionals and anorexia treatment centers. One excellent source of anorexia help is the anorexia treatment facility, Casa Palmera, located in Del Mar, California. Receiving anorexia help is of the utmost importance for those suffering from anorexia. Anorexia is a life-threatening disorder and often can not be cured without proper anorexia help. To determine if you or someone you love needs anorexia help, it is important to be able to recognize the signs and symptoms of anorexia.

sometimes im jealous at anorectic people, because they can control themselves. But on the other hand, they do not control themselves at all because they cannot stop dieting anymore. I think its terrible when young children already suffer from anorexia, and i wonder if it is caused by the media, that spread the idealism of being thin. but ive also read that anorexia is genetically caused... i would like to lose a little weight, but i would set a limit, but anorectic people donnot have a limit anymore.

Anorexia Nervosa is a mental disorder with one of the highest mortality rates. Unfortunately, many people assume people with this disorder simply want attention or are 'selfish' or 'disgusting' Although many are quick to blame television and the media for 'causing' the disease, Anorexia Nervosa actually goes back many centuries. There were women who started fasting to feel 'pure' or closer to God and ended up dying of starvation. Some started fasting for other reasons, but certainly not becasue a super model was on the cover of a magazine. They didn't have that in the 1600's. Anyway, some of the comments here are very ignorant. If you have the disease or know someone who does, start to learn everything you can about it. FACT People do die from this disease Even those who don't die may suffer irreparable damage, including but not limited to gastroparesis, nerve damage, damage to the heart or kidneys, chronic esophagitis or GERD, sterility, osteoporois and fractures, stunted growth and/or memory loss. People do not choose anorexia nervosa. They may have a certain personality type that is more susceptible to developing this condition. In a certain type of environment (i.e. abusive or neglectful) the behaviors may be triggered. It IS a big deal. I wish everyone here who has been strugglign the best of luck with your recovery

I think anorexia a need to control an aspect of life that is controllable. When we rely on others who are maybe not living up to our needs and we can not have the things that we desire most in life, we may control life in the definite way of anorexia and see then definite certain results.

have you ever thought about why people do this to themselves. have you ever tried to figure out why they starve themselves. It's not because they want to. noone wants to. when you are born, you have perfectly fine self-esteem. no baby thinks they are not good enough. it is this world that snatches people's innocence. fools them. it is this world...anorexics are people, with a heart, and this world constantly chips away at their heart. anorexics, these humans, thirst for love, for someone who notices them. they feel lost, somehow forgotten by everyone, because people don't SEE them. yes, people do see there bodies, they hear their voices, yet they never "see" there soul, begging for help. they never "listen" to their pleas, pleading for love, for someone that understands. You may think that you are the best parent in the world. Tell me, what is it that your child wants most in the world. Tell me, what is it? what is it truely? what does your daughter/son truely think of you? do they really think that you are the best mommy/daddy in the world. tell me, why truely is your child starving themself. if you say you don't know, you will be lying to yourself. These people, are living...they can feel things like love, anger, hatred, pity...when it seems like noone cares, they stop caring. there natural self esteem, the one they were born with, deteriorates, and they began to stop feeling, not because they physically can't feel, or because they want to hurt anyone else, it is because they want to hurt themselves, because they feel nonexistent.

It isnt just a 'girl' illness my son is 13 and he is anorexic. This is mainly to do with peer pressure. In todays society if u arent a standard height weight etc u r mocked and this is what has happened to him. Its a sad day when its not good enough just to be urself.

My sister has changed alot in this past year and im considerably worried about her as she refuses to eat tihngs like bread ,rice and anything else with carb its a really scary thinng when you see your 16 yr old sister lie to her mother about eating her lunch and slipping it into her school bag. I just dont know howe to react or understand her i dont think she is very concerned with her weight she eats lots of of beans and salid but barely nothing else and she seems awfully sad i feel like im the only one whos noticing it i cant just pretend everything is normal and go along with it all in a big lie wearinga smile across my face im worried about her and noboody else seems to notice thats what i cnat seem to understand:( from fat.i.am@hotmail.com

Even though we need to stop we cant and people obsessing about it like its a "HOT TOPIC" isn't helping at all so when you are thinking about it please dont ruin your life by not eating because my friend almost died from it !

I am wondering if my 9 year old child is anorexic because she has gotten really skinny, and everyone seems to have a comment about it. They look at her like "whoa" and say how much she has slimmed down. I am taking steps to give her more attention, and made her a doctors appointment. We are not going to keep it a secret, we will talk very openly about it, trying not to imbarrass her. Please don't ignore it if you feel something might be wrong. Children are crying out for help, so help them now so that they dont have more problems later.
