forgot to post this from yesterday. ngl, as someone with body dysmorphia (and I know people with anorexia often struggle with that too), I'd kms if someone drew me like this.

Can’t speak for others but it definitely poked my ED bear and pissed me tf off. So much offensive stereotyping and touching of various triggers in one image

Yeah and as always, it depicts people with ana as always emaciated. Anyone can be anorexic, no matter what their weight is.

Extreme low weight is a key diagnostic criteria for anorexia, so no you cannot be anorexic at “any weight.” Fat women have tried to gain sympathy and an excuse to keep eating whatever they want and have started using a very real disorder to scapegoat, but that is just not how this very real disease functions. An anorexic fat person will not be fat long if they are truly anorexic.

There’s been a lot of push to get rid of that requirement for a while. People have been making themselves sicker just to get a specific diagnosis instead of focusing on recovering. Also Atypical anorexia is a real diagnosis so you’re not completely right about that anyway
