Hi.
First of all, you are fat. You are ugly. Your breath stinks. You are unpopular. Your car sucks. Your house sucks. Your life sucks.
You are not witty. You are not smart. You are ignorant. You are stupid. You will never make it in this world. You are unpopular. You will never amount to anything. You are nothing.
Your diet is poor. You have low self-esteem. You have cellulite. You have ugly toenails. You have blackheads. You have body hair where it just shouldn?t be. Your eyeballs are not white enough. Your teeth are not white enough.
Secondly, you are fat. You should go on a diet. You should eat more hamburgers. Your tits are not big enough. Your tits are too small. Your tits aren't small enough or big enough. Your dick is too small. Your nose isn't right. Your ass is too big. You should make yourself sick. You should eat more hamburgers.
Your dress sense sucks. You have no style. You are one of the crowd. You are a follower. You are a freak. You don't fit in. You are a lah-hoo-ser. You have no charisma. You are not sexy enough. Your favorite band sucks. Your favorite brand sucks. Your clothes suck. Your shoes suck. You are retarded.
You don't have enough money. You should work harder. You don't have enough things. You are unhappy. You need more. You are unsatisfied. You are not moving forward. You are not keeping up the pace. You are lagging behind. You are one step behind the rest.
You are doing it all wrong. You need to change. You need to see that change is good. You need to follow us. You need to be individual. You need to fit in. You need to think outside the square. You need to stand out. You need to know the rules. You need to know the secrets. You should be yourself.
Thirdly, you are fat. Your legs wobble too much. Your teeth are crooked. Your face is wrong. You are not thin enough. You are too thin. You need to eat more hamburgers.
You are lactose intolerant. You are iron deficient. Your cholesterol is too high. Your calcium level is too low. Your blood pressure is too high. Your iron level is too low. You need to get liposuction. You need to lose weight. You suffer from premature ejaculation. You are far too dependant on drugs. You need to buy more drugs.
You are bipolar. You have attention deficit hyperactive disorder. You have post-traumatic stress disorder. You suffer from depression. You are manic. You are not happy enough. You suffer from road rage. You suffer split-personality disorders. You suffer marriage problems. You are not right. You need to buy more drugs.
You should stop smoking. You should buy more cigarettes. You should stop smoking. You will get cancer. You will die anyway. You should have fun. You shouldn't have fun. You should be fashionable. You should keep ahead. You are lagging behind. You should be individual. You shouldn't care about what you do. You are free. You should go your own way. You should follow us.
You watch too much television. You need to stay tuned. You are fat because you watch too much television. You should watch more television. You should be individual. You are going to be a star one day. You are nothing. You should eat more hamburgers. You should drink more syrup. You are too fat.
You should not be who you are. You have to change.

Выход прост. Выключить телевизор и "не читать перед едой советских газет". (с)

Возможности промывки мозгов в связи с тотальной телевизоризацией и интернетизацией выросли не просто количественно, а качественно. Что же до "выключить телевизор" - вы себя подростком помните?

Что же касается похудательно-оздоровительной индустрии, то, хоть, как пишет steba, "разрыв между средним весом деушки и весом топ-модели постоянно растет", взглянем правде в глаза: в Америке множество откровенно ТОЛСТЫХ женщин, и вес моделей не имеет к этому никакого отношения. Толстые они потому, что едят дешевую еду, не читая этикеток, и мало двигаются. На них делают деньги трижды: первый раз - когда продают им пищу, второй - когда продают им средства для похудания и абонементы в gym и третий - когда лечат их от болезней, вызванных чрезмерным весом и другими последствиями плохого питания. И в числе виноватых на первое место я поставил бы все же не маркетинг, а ignorance его объектов. Надо просто не лениться думать и не позволять относиться к себе как к быдлу.
Потом, подростки ведь не растут в вакууме. Они растут в семьях. И от того, как ведут себя родители, зависит очень-очень многое, что бы там не говорили. Если папа "приходя, не находит дверей", а мама проводит вечера за просмотром Sex and the City, нечего потом пенять на влияние улицы и промывку мозгов. Сами мы во всем виноваты. Главная разруха - у нас в головах.

"i've had food anxieties for a long time but it's only recently they've manifested themselves outwardly and physically. i hate it. i hate what these anxieties are doing to me. i hate that i can't control my mind enough to just EAT and be okay with eating. i hate that i fear food and i fear hunger.
how there can be so many people who promote this type of sickness is beyond me. the concepts of "thinspiration" and "beauty in bones" is disgusting and shallow to me."
"it took me from 7th grade to 11th grade to get to a place of true and lasting healing in terms of eating. in some ways, im still working towards that. one of the reasons it took me so long was that i'd substitute one coping mechanism after another until i finally got sick of it... i'd cut, hook up with guys, binge, restrict, purge, flip out on people, stay in bed for days and refuse to do anything, overdose on pills (i got hospitalized at a psych hospital 3 times)... it was like the lifehouse song 'sick cycle carousel'. i had to come to a place that i was so worn down and i'd run myself into the ground so many times that i had nothing left to do but get better. and once i really commited myself to it, it was a hard road to walk, but it took me to the most whole place i've ever been in my entire life. it was AMAZING. "
""ok sooo...there's a patient that recently started coming into our office that has been struggling with anorexia for over 15 years. she's super skinny(duh), her hair looks as if she's pulled chunks of it out, and she only has about half of her teeth. the few teeth that are still in her head are rotted and extremely loose. in fact, one of her teeth just fell out today while i was trying to x-ray her mouth. and even standing three feet away from her you can smell her breath because her teeth are so bad.
she told me that she's been out of the hospital for eight months and this is the longest period of time that she's been able to stay out. but now with her teeth just falling out she physically can't eat. she's been struggling psychologically with this for so long and when she got to the point where she was finally doing (somewhat)better and she was trying to put on/maintain some weight; SHE IS UNABLE TO EAT. she's scared that she's going to slip back into her old habits.
it's incredibly sad to me but at the same time it makes me angry. this woman has a disease. and because of this disease her body has been robbed of proper nutrition for 15 years and is falling apart. the thing that makes me so mad is how so many girls now are trying to make themselves anorexic. i understand the desire to be thin. i understand the pressures that are put on women to have a certain image, and that image can never been thin enough. i understand all of this, i feel it too. i look in the mirror and wish i were thinner(or prettier or taller). i wish i'd gone running instead of eaten those french fries. i understand.
and i understand that anorexia is a disease and many women and men simply cannot help it. and that it's often not caused by a desire to be skinny but for a sense of control or for other reasons that have nothing to do with weight. but it angers me that girls will set out trying to become anorexic. that their goal is not only to be skinny but to acquire a disease. and sure, you'll get skinny. sure, people will compliment you as you continue to lose weight and when they stop you'll think it's because they're just jealous(or that you're still "fat")."

Всем этим женщинам никто никогда не объяснял, что главное - не уложить себя в некую норму (веса, роста, белизны зубов и прочее), а любить себя такой, как есть, и жить в мире с собой и окружающими.
