A friend of mine was anorexic, actually not real, but kind of anorexic-wanna-be. She wanted to lose on weight and when she did, it wasn’t enough and she lost self-control. Fortunately she didn’t develop any serious disorder and took part in anorexia recovery treatment. I can’t see anything wrong in wish to look pretty. But am concerned about it usually gets very close to nutritional disorders.

I read stories about girls aged 14, 15 that died because of anorexia. Completely unbelievable. I think that it is more than just a wish to look attractive and skinny but kind of mental disorder developed by nutrients insufficiency. I mean, if someone does not take any food, it is easy to develop hypovitaminosis. Very wrong criteria. I’m glad that your anorexic friend recovered.
