although this is a nice motivational message, it must be stressed that once the disease of addiction is in motion, you cannot just will it away. Addiction is not a matter of willpower, it is a hijacking of the motivational center of the brain. An addicted brain can’t just choose to stop the behavior on its own.
But that doesn’t mean you have NO choice or power over it. The power you have is to choose to seek professional help or a 12-step program and be active in your recovery, like she said.
So true, you make some very good points!
i understand that i have another youtube and i got called fat from alot of people and it belt up over 2 mounths tell i told my self one day i dont have to eat and its been a year now i dont throw up my food i tryed it but i cant but i do have tendsys of anarexia but yes its the truth that i chose not to eat i eat 1 meal a day now and thank you for these video

It’s a choice, whether you want to believe it or not. When you first start to make those choices to work hard at not eating is when you have the power to choose not to continue (much less start at all). You don’t become anorexia overnight people. Stay true to yourselves….
It is a choice.
I am not sure what I would be classified under, but I DO choose to starve.
I do it because I hate my body and its frame. I feel fat when I am healthy.
I CHOOSE to be unhealthily skinny because I don’t want to be fat.
At first I thought I didn’t have a choice (two years ago) but I forced myself to stop. I chose to stop but now I choosing to get skinny(ish) again.
It IS YOUR choice.
I didn’t want to be “fatter” but I COULD make a choice if I knew that the weight was right.
well, okay I have/had anorexia. And I didn’t “choooose” that, I saw something else in the mirror. Its the same now, and It was a really hard time back then. I know that I can’t trust my eyes because the brain is showing me another person. Okay, it maybe is a choise to remain sick or to get better, but would U want to get fatter if U already thought U was fat? it’s hard to say if it is a choice or not but for me it wasn’t.
It is a choice. for example , drinking, you have the choice of whether or not to pick up the bottle. Its not like when your hand is going towards the bottle and your like “I can’t stop my hand its moving on its own”.
everything is a choice
It is a choice to remain sick or to get better, that is the choice.
Omg, it’s NOT a choice…
Read Explaining colours to a blind man. Not only will it enlighten many as to what living with a mental illness is like, it also gives comfort to those sufferers who think there is no hope and that they are alone. It is very informative, sometimes shocking but also very funny in parts. All in all, a good read and highly recommended.
I do not think that it is a choose i have had this illness for to many years, so i dont agree with everything you say..
These videos are amazing! Well done x
Illness? I agree with that. Addiction? I agree with that. Obsession? I agree with that. But… is it a choice? I don’t agree with that one, sorry.
Hi yes please
You actually can’t get an eating disorder just for watching thinspo or models or skinny women, it does trigger though

Hi i’m a student and am researching anorexia, i’m not an anorexic so just thought you or other people who see this could help me in my research. I would like to know your views on the representation of women in the media and games, was this a factor in triggering anorexia for you or was it something else?
isn’t it ironic how a brain starving condition can spawn such articulate people. A lot of anorexics seem to share the ability to analyze and deconstruct a situation or series of situations but then even after identifying the reality of something the ability to act on something or set the wheels in motion to fix something seems to generally allude them.
Hmph… I noticed there’s a lack of comments for THIS one…. -_-
thank you for this video, this makes a lot of sense. i think this is your mos powerful message yet. you are an angel kat!
wow!! and that is all i can say!!
