People are very competitive by nature. But throw an eating disorder in and the competition becomes deadly. We must constantly outdo one another. Be skinnier. Eat less. Exercise more. Be sick longer. The list never ends and neither does the competition. I get competitive so easily. The person doesn't even have to have an eating disorder. They just have to some trait that I want. The only problem is that this competition never ends until we die. The only "successful" anorexics are dead. Maybe the competition shouldn't be focused on being sicker longer. It doesn't show strength, it shows how well you can kill yourself before somebody else. So maybe I am a failed anorexic, but I can never meet a successful one. There aren't any. It's the literal Hunger Games. How long can you stay alive when your end post is either being dead or almost dead. There's no true winning in having an eating disorder.
Stay Strong
