wow. i was anorexic for a really long time... and now i'm 5 months pregnant... it's really freaking hard sometimes to let myself eat what i'm supposed to and gain the weight that i'm supposed to... for about a month when i started really gaining i cried and hated myself and the way i looked. i'm better now.

part of the problem with anorexia is that the media and popular culture tells us that to be attractive, to be of any value, women must be thin. it's very hard to recognize that as untrue and to let go of that belief.

excellent piece. i love the way you drew it and the way you put the lyrics next to her .

Thank you very much! I'm glad that you've gotten over anorexia, i've known a few good people with it and it was heartbreaking watching them go through it. The media and society is cruel and disgusting, I try and stay away from it...
Congrats on being a mommy to be! (I'm a mommy to be myself )

Ok this...is so being fave'd, And shoved at the rest of my friends.

Rant warning!

People who choose to make themselves anorexic disgust me. Seriously. I weigh in the upper 90's lower 100's on and off, not because I think I'm fat but because I'm actually sick.

Now, having a lot of experience with Doctors I have a pretty low opinion of them. Most are just to lazy to read the information on their fancy little laptops they carry around. Now I can understand some random person off the street giving me this, but when the Freaking DOCTOR gives me one [i]look[/i] and asks how much I freaking eat in a day i just want to find the nearest sharp object and let my Imagination guide me.

Also, on the teen pregnancy thing, they've been asking me in the clinic since I was freaking 10 if i was sexually active (every time! >:/ )

End Rant!

So yeah, this is really, really good. How do you make appeals for things to become daily Deviations?(goes to look that up.)

Wow! Thank you ever so much for the comment!
I definately agree with ya about doctors, they are kinda lazy and are know-it-alls! And I've heard sooo many stories of a doctor giving wrong diagnosis, etc to people, so ya... they ain't as smart as people think.
I hope you get better so doctors will leave ya alone! D:

I literally started crying when I saw that picture and read the lyrics. I know both of those might not be able to happen at once to a single person (because anorexia causes infertility), but the picture is a PERFECT depiction of a lot of the teenage girls in society.

Rant: It's so sad about the mentality of adolescents and teenagers these days, it seems that life is all about rising to celebrity status. Girls just grow up too fast, and I've seriously heard of girls younger than ten who starve themselves and wear a ton of makeup and scanty clothes just because they idolize the wrong sort sof people. And then down in Venezuela there were girls as young as TWELVE who were pregnant and raising children...

It's just sad, and that picture and those lyrics are just so unbelievably powerful. Even how she's depicted-- she just looks so broken. It's kind of frightening knowing that kind of thing happens all the time... and I can certainly relate to one of those stories.

This honestly has to be one of your best works yet, if not the best.

Thank you very very much.
And society is definately fucked up. All around the world.
And you say TWELVE year olds are getting pregnant?! That's rediculously scary!!
I hope society changes and things get better eventually.
Thank you so much for the fav!

athena1999 In reply to Zombie-Pip [2007-02-28 22:22:17 +0000 UTC]

YES. I'm not kidding about this-- we visited a clinic on our trip last January, and the doctor was telling us that girls were having sex as young as eleven years old. It's pretty bad in third-world countries, but that's not to say there's still a lot of awful stuff going on here, too.

I hope society changes, too. It's not the way it used to be.

And no problem! I love your art that much!

SentientShadoe [2007-02-28 01:03:12 +0000 UTC]

I haven't heard the song, but the most disturbing thing about is it's not just a song; shit like this really happens all the time.

We, as a "civilized" society live in our little communities, sheltered by our little houses, and outside we cheerily greet our neighbours as we pass them by, mowing our lawns or *groan* shovelling endless heaps of that white shit ("snow" IS a 4-letter word! ) and how often do we stop and think about how well we really know our neighbours and/or friends and what goes on behind closed doors ...

And now we have the internet in abundance, more and more all the time cluttered with superfluous CRAP spawned by people who can anonymously BE "anybody" they wanna be ... who's to say if all this technology is breeding a whole rabid bunch of sociopaths, eh?

.... ehhhh ... okies, so that's my rant for today ...

NEway, as I've come to expect from you, the drawing is superb. I daresay that your work evokes more of an emotional reaction from me than anyone else i watch here on DeviantART; it's just so damned good! I think that IF this is what you reeeeeally love to do (draw & stuff), then you oughtta be seriously exploring educational opportunities to develop a career in that direction cuz, dear girl, you have major MAJOR talent and a verrry engaging style that I believe would have mass appeal. I'd love to share more thoughts with you about becoming a gainfully employed artist some time, and introduce you to some influencial people in the art world. I know several, to whom— you might say— I owe my life. Not makin' any promises, but, in my humble opinion, your stuff rocks, and I'd like to see ya do something with your apparently natural talent.

That's all for now. Toodles!
