» blairbear49 - your help
A lady named Jean Kilbourne has a book out called The Naked Truth. She is great with identifying all the ways the media as a lot to do with the way people feel about themselves. You can find her on the Internet, just go to google and type in her name. She is really great and she also goes state to state giving her lectures. Good luck!! I'm actually doing the same research paper, thats how i know about her.-- posted by blairbear49

Hi I am 18 year old girl who has had life tough and I am still even struggling with an eating disorder. The worst thing is when people try to push you into eating, that is the worst thing they can possibly do. If you feel like everyone is watching you everytime you do eat, make it clear that it is not helping you to get over it or recover. I have a whole heap of advice if you would like to listen.-- posted by Sportygirl
