people on here really annoy me.  who are you to say that the pro ana sites are bad have you ever been on them or used them?  they are a strong support system for people living with anorexia.  it is somewhere i know that someone will understand my tourmant and fear.  if you take the time to look at the sites properly you will find that there are

Ah, the annual angry-ana post.
honey this community hardly moves anymore so don't worry. you pro-anas vastly, VASTLY outnumber us anti-anas here on LJ and basically in the rest of the world.

if you think surrounding an anorexic with images of skinny women is support, then fine. just go back to your cute little communities where they keep you from dying quickly but also keep you on your path to dying slowly, and the rest of us will try to forget the pro-ana cult exists.

there is so much more to the site than anorexic images. i personally don't like the images. it is the chat that is the important bit

well that's what therapy really should be for, because a bunch of other mentally ill people aren't going to be able to help you in the long run. however, if they've kept you from killing yourself, then it's a good thing. still, i have read PLENTY of eating disordered girls' statements saying that yes, the pro-ED community kept them sicker, longer.

So, good luck, but I hope you can understand why a handful of us here are horrified at what goes on in the pro-ana world. even your icon gives me the chills. what world do you live in that says bones are perfect beauty? cuz in my world that equals death.

i do understand why people have there concerns with the pro ana and i appologise for my original post. i just get angry when people say that they are all bad and don't see that it does 'help' in a way
