When it seemed like no one else in the world these people did. Sure an obsession with weight was they dominating theme in the chatrooms, but we would also talk about our relationships, school, and current events..... That's not to ignore the bad things, but these are sick people you're dealing with attack the media not them. I used to go to a “Pro-Ana” site and they did offer a lot of support.

An ex new england track star, I gave it up to waste away down to 87 pounds. and you know what, it's never good enough, it's not glamorous, its death. and this Pro-ana, these red bracelets are horrible. People need to speak out, share their story, and stop this. They will die. and it's scary. I have also visited the sites, and had my own battle with anorexia.

I'm a girl, I'll never ever be happy with the way that I look, but I would never go to the extreme that these girls take. It's so disheartening to see people doing these things to themselves just to be acceptable by the public eye. And yes, there are hundreds or more girls joining these sites daily and it seems we might never be able to stop them. Dove is the real inspiration, letting girls know they beauty is not only skin deep. You can feel beautiful and accept yourself as beautiful even if you don't look like the girl on tv.. because no one really does. Let's hope things continue to progress with Dove and their support grows. Marissa Micciulli (Edison)
