On the pro-ana sites, support is different. In the forum I go to, people tell normal healthy people who are just wanting to lose some weight to go away and just eat healthily because eating disorders make life a living hell and they don't want normal people to pick it up.
I'm not normal though. I may have had bulimia in the past and sometimes it's EDNOS.
I don't support people who are dangerously underweight. It is amazing what people will say to someone who is dangerously underweight.
One time a girl wrote a post about being distraught her doctors were going to weigh her and if she lost more weight they were going to put her in the hospital. A lot of other girls gave her tips on how she can trick the doctors, like putting metal magnets for weight in her bra and underwear, eating a lot of salt and drinking a lot of water.
I personally think saying that to someone who is dangerously underweight is horrible. I don't support that type of thing.
I usually just post what I post on Babble, my struggles with trying to fast and about how fat and disgusting I am.
