I Post Secret because it shows me that there are others out there who have fuct up problems just liek he rest of us. btu also has happy moments. and moments were you're mved by someones voice. someone who has a porblem and is trying to fix it, and in tryignt o fix it, tries to help others.

Thsi is an artile that was linked to on Post secret today,for the week, about a girl who is fighting and eating disorder and in the process of helping herself has actually started to help others. This is a piece the article:

For the past several months, Malament has designed, painted and sold T-shirts to raise awareness of eating disorders and their silent truths. She wears the T-shirts around AU's campus and the city.
In their lifetime, an estimated 0.5 percent to 3.7 percent of females suffer from anorexia, which is characterized by self-starvation and excessive weight loss, and an estimated 1.1 percent to 4.2 percent suffer from bulimia, according to the National Institute for Mental Health in Bethesda. An increasing number of males also suffer from the illnesses.
''People think it's very easy just to eat," said Carolyn Weiss, an advanced practice registered nurse at the Suburban Center for Eating Disorders and Adolescent Obesity. ''It's truly a very, very dangerous disease. People die. That's important for people to know. ... The sooner you get treatment, the sooner you are able to turn it around."
Malament's T-shirts reflect the statistics. The front of one pale pink shirt reads: ''20 percent will die from their anorexia." Some research indicates that anywhere from 5 percent to 20 percent of people with anorexia nervosa who don't receive treatment die.
The back of the shirt asks ''Is it worth this?" above a list of 18 side effects associated with the illness, including ulcers, hair loss, infertility and kidney failure. Other side effects Malament lists include fatigue, depression, shame and isolation.
The last side effect she lists is heart failure.
