this is very, very disturbing...

I read Something Positive on a regular basis and recently there was a comic about "pro-ana's" (for those of you who don't know, Something Positive is a kick-ass webcomic that's pretty dark despite its name). Naturally I thought the comic was funny and that the whole pro-anorexia thing was made up...turns out I was mistaken.

There's almost a sub-culture of pro-anorexic people who claim anorexia is a lifestyle! There are websites devoted to it and "thinspiration" (not making that up, I swear!). There are even communities on LJ about pro-anorexia!!! I just think it should be brought to more people's attention.
