I mean i'm in my last year of high school and i still dread the lunch queues and schools meals. I mean i'm not that social really and i'm shy and quite, making it even harder. My face blushes at the slightest bit of attention and people sniggering behind me and so peer pressure lead me to hardly eating at school because you didn't know what the people around and your friends would say.

Now i eat 2 meals a day, miss out on breakfast but i've been trying to talk food into school making it less of a problem. Sometimes its my pure laziness that can't be bother to get up and get some food or don't want the effort of doing the dishwasher or clearing up...i know its stupid!

I've never had a problem with an eating disorder, that's for sure. lol. I do, however, have friends who suffer from bulimia and anorexia. One of my friends had to go to a home for it. It was kinda sad. She's doing better now, but I do want to acknowledge the fact that it is a serious problem that a lot of the teens face today.

As a teen, I can vouche. The pressure to be extremely skinny and 'hott' is gargantuine. The idea of what's hott and not is just ridiculous, and people need to start getting real with themselves. Nobody is perfect, not even the stars who are placed on a pedistal are. Even they have to go to unbelievable lenths to achieve the impossible. Some of them end up seriously sick from it.

It's ridiculous, but it is a problem.

Actually, yes... I know this person very well... It's me, and I'm bullemic... I'm getting treated for it, but I'm not gonna lie, it's hard to deal with... Is there anything you'd like to know or ask me about?
