Top 10 Myths about Anorexia Nervosa. Song: WTC Piano Theme
i really like your presentation
however on your second point it would make you more of a credible source if you cited some documentation of anorexia throughout history
i know there are cases because i have done my research, but i’m just making a suggestion

Me!!
Great Video. I hope the people now understand that anorexia is not a diet or the wish to be like a Model.
Thx
I’m try to currently collect resources for a friend of mine. Whereas other friends haven’t understood but have just ‘gone with it’ she is very into psychology and analysing it.
The first thing she said was ‘oh so they’re making you put on weight’
Your video will hopefully dispel this nonsense that this is the main part of treatment.
heres is some things i would like to say everyone is beautiful in there own way nobody should ever feel ugly or fat. just remeber that
I’m pretty speechless, all i have to say is thank you.
THis video makes me cry no matter how many times I watch it. I was in reocvery from anorexia and recently just started having troubles with it once again. It never leaves…
This is a great video of TRUTH! I have been “Ana” for about 11 years now, and I’m 23 now. I sent this video link to my boyfriend to help him understand the truth & lies about ED’s. Thank you for this information!
i like videos that are actually educational and not just feeding other peoples ignorance or their eating disorders.
And I overeat 4-6 times a day until I can’t stand it anymore. But I always compensate by bringing it all back up. It’s disgusting!!!
fml :’-(
i wish people would understand that not all anorexics make themselves throw up and not all anorexics take laxitives either, and not all anorexics are on the scales weighing themselves…i hate when people presume these things about me. you can just get out of control with your eating, and it can just happen, without puking, weighing, or taking laxitives.
I wish more people would understand that Ana is not a choice but an uncontrolable obsession. I have had it for 11 years and I get scolded for it, but I cant help it.
Thank you for uploading this and telling the world what anorexia really is, and not what most people think it is; the media
I was very suprised by myth 6.i told myself that when i wouldnt get help unless i got to thin.beautiful video.i think it almost dominates all the thinsporations i just watched to help me loose another kilo.
thanks for this great video. Anorexia make me feel in control of something in my life.. and the feeling of running on an empty stomach is freedom.
thankyou
Great video!
This is what the PSAs should look more like and not provide more thinspo for the weak-hearted in their videos whilst standing on pedestal proclaiming the media affects these girls.
i suffer from compulsive overeating disorder which is an issue that has similar symptoms to this such as the lack of control…its as much of a health issue as anorexia and i think videos such as yours really help people understand issues like this. awesome song as well
thanks, this video needed to be made. I am glad, because there are so many misconceptions about anorexia. And hopefully this will make people realize something.
Thanks
Kit, some people will never understand… You and I both know how it feels to have anorexia (and co-morbid depression) – as do many people who have really suffered anorexia nervosa.
What doesn’t help people understand this illness, at least in the UK, is that the media portray anorexia as some silly fashion fad that’s all to do with wanting to look like a celebrity… Nope, it’s a complex mental illness that we don’t ‘choose’ to have…
Take care…

I haven’t gone out with friends in months.
I’m terrified of public places and no one has seen me without a huge hoodie in pretty much a year.
Do you not think we’re hungry?
It’s not even about the weight.
It’s about control and punishment and severe underlying issues.
People like you are the reason people with an eating disorder don’t get help.
You can’t put a fucking face on an eating disorder.
thankyou for posting
>im sorry i have to answer ‘ignorance’ who said its rich girls, and that load of sh*T -well from a anorexic i dress down usually in layers and baggy , i also have many (sadly) friends whom suffer from eating disorder and are the same! – erm anyways thankyou for posting *
A girl like me? You clearly know nothing about me and nothing about eating disorders in general. It seems to me that you are projecting your own issues onto other people. I wonder what it is about you that makes you so angry and prejudiced? Perhaps you should explore that rather than wasting your time on YT hiding behind a screen name leaving nonsensical comments.
Kit, don’t even pay attention to that sick person. How pathetic.
Talking about myths, who says girls who suffer from ed’s are all rich? Again so pathetic!
