    okay but why does it have to be called 'MANorexia'??? Anorexia is a mental illness that applies to all genders.... lol its like people forget that men actually have emotions just because they typically choose to show it less. an eating disorder is an eating disorder, theres no such thing as female anorexia so there shouldnt be such a thing as MANorexia. it just another way for society to tell a man "oh yes you are sick, but not as sick as this woman, so lets give your disease a stupider name... to make people think its less serious"

    Im a man, and I still battle body image issues. It started when I was 11, and then when I was 15 I started sticking my toothbrush down my throat and stopped eating regular size meals. Eventually I passed out and had to go to the hospital. Then my hair started falling out due to malnutrition and avitaminosis. So I had to cut all my hair off because it left bald patches on my head. Thankfully my hair grew back BUT it’s texture and richness isn’t the same as it use to be. It also doesn’t grow as fast as it use to.
    Now at age 27 I no longer do that stuff (partially because if I miss a meal the stomach pain is unbearable). And my whole metabolism is still effected by it, and I get tired easily as a result. I can even exercise very well because my bones are still brittle from the abuse I put my body through.
    All I can say, if you’re doing it now...PLEASE DON’T DO IT! Please Don’t starve yourself, and please don’t make yourself throw up. It’ll just make everything your feeling worse.

      Thanks for sharing this, it gave me hope that one day I can be comfortable and happy with myself but I can’t bring myself to attempt recovery yet.
      I feel like its not manly to ask for help (I’m a trans guy) but staying sick feels just as invalidating since it’s stereotypically a “girl’s disease.”
      I don’t know what to do anymore. I’ve developed anaemia I’ve screwed up potassium levels and threw up blood but I still can’t stop. I’m 14 now but I started when I was 9 its just engrained into me now.

    at the end when he says "i'd rather be happy than buff" he is in a veiled way saying he's happier being emaciated i think. strange to see a case where the guy's good looks are so obviously validated by others, his trade in fact, and he chooses the other look anyway. important to note that many anorexics will publicly agree re: how scarily gaunt they are etc etc but of course they relish the look and want a more extreme version.

    A friend of mine left the fashion industry in London a few years ago because he was also heading down this route. To those who don't understand how it happens, my male friend became obsessed with having muscles and thus terrified of "softness" in his body ( aka, natural fat). His agency also kept pressuring him to "look more angular", aka lose weight so his cheekbones, muscles, etc. would stand out more. I watch this and I am so glad my friend is out of this strange industry. RIP Jeremy.

    When my anorexia was found out, I was forced to eat over 3,500 calories every day. I put on 2 stone in a month, and was normal weight and people tried to keep me on that diet even though it could have potentially made me obese with 'healthy food'. I found out my own diet again and am applying for an athletics scholarship :)

  • @ernestmac13
    @ernestmac13 Před 10 lety +12

    There is thin & then there is underwieght. Just as some guys have a larger build with wider shoulders, or lean towards gaining weight easily, or building muscle easily, some guys have trouble gaining weight, and this applies to women too. However, when you reach a certain level, you beyond what is healthy because, your body starts feeding off itself to survive. I'm not talking about your body burning up fat, because the fat is gone. When people get this skinny, the body starts feeding off muscles including the heart, off of organs, etc, which is why people with eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness. This is also why they drop dead of strikes, heart attacks, kidney failure, etc. I had a family member wh Ko left two adolescent children behind when they b died from this disorder. There is no glamor or glory for nm needlessly ending your life leaving a deep dark hole in the hearts of your loved one's.

  • @oceanicbream
    @oceanicbream Před 12 lety +2

    To be honest I don't think even people with an eating disorder can wrap their head around it; before I developed the illness I did used to think 'why would anyone do that?! I would never do such a thing', and only when it happened to me did I realise that it was an illness that can creep up on anyone, against your will and intelligence :( But I appreciate your honesty in admitting you don't understand, unlike some people who will hurtfully shout 'that's stupid!' in ignorance.

It started with me in 9th grade; I was 14 yrs. old, and the only male in a classroom full of weight conscious, teenage girls. Now Im 34 and still having weight issues; its really scary because people think its a joke, but it consumes my whole life; I have become afraid of food. I just want to be happy, and have a nice slim body.

    I don't know guys,I can't understand anorexia too well. I am a 14 year old male,174cm and 58kg. I try to pay attention to what I eat as I can gain weight easily but thankfully I can also gain muscle easily. So I burn the extra calories with cardio and working out. I have more muscle than all my friends. Nothing will stop me from eating pizza or a cold sandwich except if it is late at night. How can't these people eat? I just don't understand this. I can't think of myself being unable to eat a gyro (I'm Greek)

    • @rickyalaia
      @rickyalaia Před 10 lety +9

      It's a psychological thing. I am a recovering anorexic, and I used to not be able to eat, I couldn't physically make myself eat. Yes one gets hungry, but you just suppress your hunger. I went through many different methods: cigarettes, sleeping pills, dieting pills. I as an anorexic used to spend 2-3 hours a day running or jogging. I was put into 2 clinics for treatment, which both failed. But after my mother died I began to recover (she used to say I was too fat, even when I was at 50kg). But now I am 171cm and 43kg. And the thing about being so skinny and staying that skinny, is that it's hard to put the weight on then to lose it.

    had lots of energy & was like a kid. At 35 my skin was
    tight & I was tanned & fit.
    My weight varied from 95 to 105 & I didn't pay much

By the time yone's body has burned up so much muscle tissue and skin tissue for nutrients the person has very thin hair, usually.

    I know of a man who self imposed a diet to lose his "big belly" when he was 14.5 y. It went terribly wrong. He became anorexic until 15.5 y when he resumed normal eating but the harm had been done: he had stunted growth (shortlegged forever, only grew up to 5' 6.5"), rotten teeth, became neurotic & obsessive, terribly depressed (tried suicide when he was 16), sexually confused & somewhat impotent for life, and never got the looks or the personality of a grown man. He fucked up his adolescence.

    "it was never good enough..." and then he decidet to not eat anymore? Damn, it's crazy when your mind fucks with you. I can't wrap my head around this.

    @leoelmosca yeah I understand that but theres so many failing that routine coz they feel disgusting from all the bad oils and junk food. For example me personally ,I feel grosed and depressed after eating so much junk. Hence they must feel worse.They should give them more of the healthy oils. olive oils nuts (like you said) and equal amount of calories that could make up for the junk. Sum healthy foods r very high in calories they should try those type. Eating junk quickly just makes them worse

    Though this story did end on a positive and promising note, he did eventually die from anorexia.

    @niteflowe but isn't it simple to see you will die from not eating and you probably felt very sick and drained all the time right? so why let it happen for so long?

    when you deprive yourself of Nutrition your body hangs on to what you do feed it, you see, what you just told me gives me incite into what your doing wrong, alot of people really don't understand nutrition, its not just how much you eat, its also what you eat

    There is no different than a He-man and a Barbie doll. Both of those can cause eating disorders.
