Intro to Ana

You know that feeling you get when people around you are eating and you feel like crying? You want to cry and you want to grab a hold of the plate of food and just chuck it at someone. You want the people around you to eat and eat and eat so that you seem smaller... you know that feeling?

Probably not.


But isn't it more of a feeling of determination... a goal that you want to reach? You want to be thin so bad that it doesn't matter about the others whether they are fat or skinny. YOU want to achieve that thin look. YOU want your bones to feel.... your skin to barely hang on. You want your clothes to fall off. You want people to insult you and to call you stick thin and how they wouldn't "tap that". You want it and the determination is so bad that you're blind. You can't see any other way because Ana doesn't give you any other choice. So, why do you want this?


I can't answer this for you because you probably don't want it. It has everything to do with victimization, vindication and responsibility. Everything.
