Description Art work inspired by "Courage" by Superchick.

I told another lie today
And I got through this day
No one saw through my games
I know the right words to say
Like "I don't feel well"
"I ate before I came"

Then someone tells me how good I look
and for a moment
For a moment I am happy
But when I'm alone
No one hears me cry

I need you to know
I'm not through the night
Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards the light
I need you to know
That we'll be okay
Together we can make it through another day

I don't know the first time I felt unbeautiful
The day I chose not to eat
What I do know is how I changed my life forever
I know I should know better
There are days when I'm okay
And for a moment
For a moment I find hope
But there are days when I'm not okay
And I need your help
So I'm letting go

I need you to know
I'm not through the night
Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards the light
I need you to know
That we'll be okay
Together we can make it through another day

You should know you're not on your own
These secrets are walls that keep us alone
I don't know when but I know now
Together we'll make it through somehow
Together we'll make it through somehow

I need you to know
I'm not through the night
Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards the light
I need you to know
That we'll be okay
Together we can make it through another day

**Please note that none of my work it intended to be "thinspiration", nor am I pro-ana/mia. It is to show the horrors that people with eating disorders go through. It is to show their pain, anguish, and self esteem. If I see any of my images being used as thinspiration, I will be sure to watermark my work, and make it only viewable to deviants 18 and older. Please respect my wishes. Thank you.

NOTE: No one was injured in the making of this photo. All wounds/bruises/blood/dieseases/cuts are fake. If any Deviant Art staff would like to know the exact steps as to verify that this is an artificial injury, I will be glad to abide.

Thank you so much! I know, I'm the same way. I know that it's immensely unhealthy and deadly, but I can't help but be in awe over the so delicate bodies!

Actually, I do. I'm almost 20 years old. I've been overweight all my life.

There's no need to shout.

Caps lock usually implies shouting. No need to be a smart ass.

No carb diets don't work. You need to take the mentality of "diet" out of your mind. Change the way you eat, forever. Are you really going to be able to NEVER eat sugar or carbs again? I doubt it... when you do, you'll get fat again.

I have no rebuttal to this. Everything I have to say is an attack on the person (you) rather than your argument.

By the way... using an appeal to pity doesn't constitute a very strong argument.

I can see clearly that the image is edited.. especially on the left side in the middle.

Well, I firmly believe there is no such thing as a perfect "100%" edit.
