Why cant people let me do what I want?

your right maybe you should talk to those mean people they are just jelous that they dont have the power to do what your doing

it’s because they’re worried about you, especially your family… your health means the world to them and they just want you to stay stong and healthy!! - but if you are still strong and in mind you know that what you’re doing is what makes you happy… than go on being a vegetarian and exercising!!!…as long as you’re maintaing your weight the RIGHT WAY!!! …you’re fine to do what you want, talk to thoese that put you down and tell them that you know how to handle yourself!! hope things work out for ya =)

Just wondered, if you asked this question in response to my posting advice on your earlier question (see here) http://www.funadvice.com/q/vegetarian_134167

I’m sorry if you do not like my reply, I am here to give honest answers not to post what someone wants to hear.

What would be the point in that? That sort of advice would not be helpful in any way.

I still stand strongly by my reply on the above link. I’m sorry if my answer was too honest and not to your liking though.

Because you have a recognised Mental Health disease that makes you see yourself and your body different from what is reality.

Also, our society does not agree with allowing others to self harm, which is exactly what anorexia is.

it is NOT a lifestyle choice, as pro ana supporters always say, people that have this disease HAVE little or no choice.

Hopefully this answers your question but as another symptom of anorexia is also denial, I suspect you will just refuse to accept this.

In summary,

You have a recognised disease, you will only overcome this disease when you want to and when you are ready to work with the healthcare professionals in an attempt to beat it.

If my friend or relative was constantly harming themself, I could not just sit back and allow her to do it knowing that many people die from this each year.
