Anorexic isn’t a body type‚ despite what some of you may think. Anorexia is an eating disorder that can affect anyone‚ no matter their weight. My experience: My experience with anorexia had been a short but hard one. It crept in during early October‚ and soon the only reason I was eating was to make sure my parents didn’t suspect anything. I’ve fainted more than once after working out on an empty stomach; burning off more calories than I ate in a week. It’s been over six months now and I’m still
