I am ana and i will answer all i can.
>• Why do people choose to be anorexic? For me it was many different things. I wanted to get back at my skinny mother (110) and show her i could do it also i have no control in my life. Im 17 and not allowed to go out or do anything most teenagers do. So it is also a control issue for me.
>• Do pro-ana sites offer safe, healthy, and
>responsible tips for losing weight?They do its up to you how far you take it.
>• Are pro-ana sites actually there for other people's
>sake or just to find comfort for ones' self? For both. We are lonely people and need all the comfort we can get We find it in eachother.
>• People were created to live/survive by eating, so
>why should people feel guilty for doing so? I feel guilty because i just know that i will gain more weight. That is my real fear.
>• From what I've read, anorexics often feel judged by
>society, but as a whole, do anorexics judge people
