I am so glad that I found this site because I happened upon this young woman's story and have been praying that she has learned to deal with this terrible illness. I give her so much credit for sharing her story so bravely and to show the raw reality and devastation both anorexia and bulimia can cause an individual and loved ones and she was very right when she said that she doesn't like

This is so sad. I am not anorexic or bulimic, but am often made fun of because everyone thinks I'm starving myself. I just have always been skinny. I'm 13, 5'2 and 78 pounds. And for all you people out there who are suffering with an eating disorder, just remember, you can get through it! You will! You are in charge of your life and may I suggest a very inspiration movie called "

Anonymous, I can't thank you enough for updating me on Aimee. I had heard no news about how she was doing for months now, so your update is such a relief.

I'm so glad she's back in treatment.

I get so many e-mails from people wondering how Aimee is doing. If you could keep me updated, I would be forever grateful.

Many thanks again for taking the time

When it comes to depressive anxiety disorder it's very hard for most "normal" people to understand that the self destructive side to it is a SYMPTOM of the problem...that the problem lurks in the deep recesses of the mind rather than with "attention seeking".
It's so easy to say "snap out of it" or " why is it people in Africa don't suffer from

Dear Meduse,

Thank you for the new updates from Aimee... It's sad to know that she isn't doing so wel, it concerns me! I'm a year younger than she is, and when I was seven years old eating become a problem to me. So in a way I do know, how it's like for Aimee. That's probably Aimee had reached my heart, with her story. I do pray for her and her family... Hoping she

Lars, thanks so much for taking the time to comment. The experience of watching your cousin and close friend each struggle with an ED must have been very painful. I'm very happy to hear your cousin is in recovery, and I hope for the best for your close friend. The path to recovery is fraught with obstacles and it takes tremendous strength to overcome them.

I hope you hear from

Dear Medusa,

I am a guy writing from Sweden and don't suffer from EDs. However, my cousin and a close friend have been struggling from anorexia for years and luckily my cousin is more or less cured from it, the other friend still battles hard.

It was only due to the illness coming so close that I realized how severe and omnipotent anorexia can develop. When my cousin

Hello

I was wondering what happened to Aimee? It has been a while.
I have heard from several sources that she is not doing well, hopefully she is on her way to doing so.
Regarding the other patient on Dr. Phil, I heard she completed rehab successfully and has been in recovery for a while now.
Hope you are all having a ggod day!

I read that Aimee's grandfather recently died (last month, I think), and she was listed as a survivor, so she is definitely alive. But that poor family doesn't need any more sadness... it is too bad to hear about her grandfather...

How are you Anonymous! Maybe your were a spoiled little brat going through a bad diet but it was NOT the illness shown here. You heartless brat. Who do you think you are? I pray you never ever become a doctor or anything else the must have compassion for others. I feel so sorry for any children or loved ones that may go through any hard times, apparently YOU are not someone who has a heart. Fuck

Such compassion, Anonymous. Your poor girlfriend.

She's far better off, though, without your sorry ass around her.

I won't be posting any more of your comments. No feeding of trolls here.

I meant, "Grow up!"

I'm hardly ignorant about these matters since I suffered through a year of this nonsense with an old girlfriend. She was a whiny, spoiled-rotten, self-centered girl who just needed a stern talking to.

If anorexia is an "illness" why is it not prevalent in third world countries? And why is it so commonplace in the US? Because girls
