Anorexia changes everything

by Nicole   Apr 5, 2007


Anorexia is a disorder that destroys so many lives.
It not only affects health,
but many other important matters.

Anorexia affects relationships.
You may not be aware at the time,
that you are destroying close friendships,
because your mind is only aware
of the food that surrounds you.

Anorexia also affects your ability to have fun.
You don't have the energy to enjoy who you are with
or what you are doing.
That, or you are afraid you will have to eat
or afraid of their reactions if you don't.
So you simply make up excuses
every time you get an offer.
Then, not realizing,
that offers keep coming less and less.
Slowly, friends drift away
and you are left alone,
as you keep getting smaller and weaker.

So not only do you deal with your unhealthy mind,
controlling your every action
whether you know it's good or bad.
But you also deal with feeling depressed and lonely.
There's nobody who understands.
No friends to turn to when you need them the most.
No time to go out.
No energy to have fun.

When it first starts,
You think you will change for the better.
But little do you know,
It's only about to ruin your life.

Anorexia changes energy, mood, health, and friendships.
Not only just the way you look.
Anorexia changes everything.
