Why do some girls...?

They feel like the adults in their life dont pay enough attention to them for one reason or another. Like they have a ton of siblings, or maybe they have those type of parents that dont think anything is ever good enough and they dont care. And they figure out that having serious things wrong with them such as an eating disorder will earn them a massive amount of attention. And they crave that.

There's a certain interest in being "glamorously" messed up, especially in teenage girls. I know others have been told this before and some don't believe it, but it does have a lot to do with the influence of movies, books, and friends. It's especially strong if, for example, a girl watches a movie and really likes a character who happens to be a drug addict, or an alcoholic. Then they want to be just like them. Or, they think they can be just like the celebrities they adore. It's sad, but thankfully, it's usually only a brief phase and a good number of girls don't act on their urges.

What's sadder is that a good number of girls do.

You wanted to do them too and you did so just ask yourself why did YOU want to do it?

Eating disorder: They want to loose weight quickly and they possibly dont understand the outcome.

Pop pills: Because 9 out of 10 times they are pushed into doing it

Alcoholics: They dont WANT to be one they get themselves into it

B/C they feel that if they do all of that it makes them cooler like all of their friends.

My sister is in a phase like that, I think its just ignorance showing through.

Be you, above the rest.

b/c some girls just feel like that would help them feel better in life so when they do these things it feels really good to them so think about what in your life makes you feel really really good inside thats what it feels like to them

caue people think its a way out like i was. its not and your right si all we can do is show them that there is a hope to feel better

So they can be like celebreties/ there roll models.

They think its cool to be like that.
