Ban pro ana websites and encourage people with eating disorder to get help

November 15, 2005

If u have no idea wat pro ana is, it is basically ppl telling young girls and women to become anorexic.These websites say it is alright to be this way without thinking of the health of the ppl that r inflicting this bull shit on.They explain in detail how they can make them selves sick in a way tht wud reduce there weight more dramatically then if the was to do it normally.

They encourage them to make journals of wat they eat and how they feel about wat they eat, but how can they makes these journals when many are eating nothing at all. If u don't believe this refer to this site before signing this petion www.livejournal.com.
On some of these websites they r asked to plan a target (example from 7.5 stones to 7 stone).

If this target is not met some just feel really bad, but some websites have instructed for the victim cos basically tht is wat they are, to cut them selves. This is a quote from one of the websites, but this quote is from anorexia its self."If you don't meet your target i want you to cut yourself, and feel the pain for not reaching this target for me, because i own you" This quote and many others like it are on these web site bascially wantin to make young girls and women ill.

Think if u was a mother to a 16 year old girl wat wud u do , if this happened to her and she made her self so ill and weak and proberly to the point of death. Just because a web site told her to do it. There is enough things in this life tht can kill u, so why wud young girls want to add to there problems. If u are anorexic and you read this are only advice as 2 17 yr old girl (ward and venables)are selfs go and get help and get weel.

We have had a friend tht was bulimic and thanks to the help and support she got from friends family and help groups, she went from 6 stone to now a health 9 stone she is still slim and underweight for her height but is happier with her body and life style then wen she was 6 stone. Please sign this petition to keep younger people away from the unhappiness these sites can cause.

There are many places available to young girls to go and get help but the first step is to tell family and friends and with there support you can move on to going to help groups and getting your self well again.

Visit these site to find the local group in your area and to get advice on beating this ill ness:

This is from a pro ana based source from an site called www.makaylashealingplace.com
they just ramble on about how the sud not be banned but wat they are talking about i sa load of bollocks cos its not truth in these pro ana sites is nastyness lies and is making mnay young girls ill.

"I was appalled by the shutting down and removal of the pro-anorexia sites on the internet. Why? Because they have the truths that most people are too afraid to face. They have the reality that every single one of us have felt somewhere along our long battled road through our eating disorder - the desire to stay sick and not pay the consequences."
