EATING DISORDERS

What if what you see when you look in the mirror, is distorted & MISLEADING?      
What if it causes you to over-indulge or even completely stop EATING?      
       
What if it causes you to start to push your family and friends AWAY?      
What if it encourages negative body-image and dangerous behaviors day after DAY?      
       
What if this self-image you have of yourself leads to suicidal tendencies or lowers your self-esteem (allowing you to fall victim to a bullys TAUNTS)?      
What if you get sooo over or under-weight that you can        
barely sleep, barely talk, barley stand or even barely WALK?      
       
What if your attempts at starving yourself and making yourself HURL;      
Causes your parents to have to bury at an early age...their precious lil' boy or GURL?      
       
What if your attempts at eating your pain away and eating your stress away---causes heart problems, heart disease or heart failure: affecting your quality of LIFE?
What if it makes you sooo sick (that during the middle of the day or night) your heart stops...and it eventually takes your LIFE?      
       
What if in reality---what you see is not what others see---yet what you do, is severely sickening YOU?      
What if in reality---all what you're doing to gain or lose weight---is actually killing YOU?      
       
What if what you see when you look in the mirror, is distorted & MISLEADING?      
What if it causes you to over-indulge or even completely stop EATING?
