Anorexia nervosa
[Reviewed by Dr John Powell, specialist registrar in public health medicine and Dr Michael Sharpe, senior lecturer in psychological medicine]
-What is anorexia nervosa?
The cause of anorexia nervosa is unknown. Both biological and social factors play a part.
Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder affecting mainly girls or women, although boys or men can also suffer from it. It usually starts in the teenage years.
It is difficult to estimate how common it is but surveys suggest that up to 1 per cent of schoolgirls and female university students have anorexia nervosa. This may be an underestimate.
-How is the disease characterised?
.Body weight is maintained at least 15 per cent below that expected for a person's height.
.It is self-induced weight loss caused by avoiding fattening foods and may involve taking excessive exercise, using laxatives or diuretics or self-induced vomiting.
.There is a strong, almost overwhelming fear of putting on weight, with sufferers preoccupied with the shape or size of their bodies.
.Rules are invented regarding how much food is allowed and how much exercise is needed after eating certain amounts of food.
.Those suffering from anorexia pursue a very low 'ideal' weight.
.The weight loss may cause hormonal disturbances and women with anorexia nervosa may stop having periods.
-Why do some people get anorexia?
The cause of anorexia nervosa is unknown, although it is likely that both inherent biological factors and factors in the patient's social environment play a part. The disease is mainly encountered in the western world and is more common among women in certain professions, such as models and ballet dancers. Puberty, deaths in the family and other life stresses are all believed to be potential triggers of anorexia.
There may also be peer pressure to lose weight, nasty comments from others about weight that trigger dieting or an unrealistic expectation of what a normal body weight should be.
-What are the signs and symptoms of anorexia nervosa?
.Weight loss of at least 15 per cent below the normal ideal body weight for a person of the same age and height.
.Cessation of periods or delayed development in puberty.
.Self-induced weight loss. Methods can include fasting, low food intake, excessive exercise, diuretic medicines (medicines that make you urinate more) laxatives, diet pills or vomiting. Sometimes people make themselves sick to lose weight. Others take excessive exercise.
.Sufferers have a constant fear of gaining weight, as well as a feeling of being fat, even when their weight is much less than that of other people of the same height.
.Sufferers may feel bloated, even after a small meal.
.They may lose interest in socialising with friends.
.Other side effects include tiredness, feeling cold, constipation and stomachache.
.Some patients also develop additional disorders such as bulimia.
-How long can anorexia last?
The sooner the treatment is started, the better the chance of recovery. However, anorexia may last for months or years, and it can take many more years before normal weight is regained.
Severe anorexia
People who do not receive treatment may become chronically ill or even die.
Long spells without adequate intake of food can cause osteoporosis (fragile bones) and damage to the heart, liver, kidneys and brain.
Anorexia can impede growth in the young and cause difficulties in concentration.
People with anorexia nervosa may also experience mental health problems such as depression and increased risk of suicide.
-How is anorexia treated?
Treatment will vary depending on the individual circumstances. There is no one single treatment that has proven to be effective in all cases. Treatment aims to:
.restore the person to a healthy weight.
.restore healthy eating patterns.
.treat any physical complications or associated mental health problems.
.address thoughts, feelings and beliefs concerning food and body image.
.enlist family support.
In some cases, medication is necessary, especially where there is depression or serious compulsive symptoms. Treatment by the family doctor is possible, although sometimes a psychologist or psychiatrist experienced in eating disorders is necessary.
If the weight loss becomes serious (more than 20 to 25 per cent less than total normal body weight) admission to hospital may be required. Treatments used include individual psychological therapy, family therapy and drug therapy using antidepressants.
-What can people suffering from anorexia do to help themselves?
Anorexia nervosa is a potentially life-threatening illness, and should be treated as soon as possible. Sufferers should seek help, or be encouraged to do so.
Self-help organisations for anorexia nervosa are usually run by people with personal experiences of eating disorders. There are also self-help books available.

I'm with you
I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
Theres nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound
Isn't anyone tryin to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand?
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I´m With you
I'm looking for a place
Searching for a face
Is anybody here i know?
Cause nothing's going right
And everything is a mess
And no one likes to be alone
Isn't anyone tryin to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand?
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you
Yeah, Yeah, Oh...
Oh why is everything so confusing
maybe I'm just out of my mind
yeah yeah yeah...
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I dont know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I dont know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you...
Promiscuous
Promiscuous girl
Wherever you are
I’m all alone
And its you that I want
Promiscuous boy
I'm calling your name
But you're driving me crazy
The way you're making me wait
Promiscuous girl
You're teasing me
You know what I want
And i got what you need
Promiscuous boy
We're one in the same
So we don't gotta play games no more

Killing me softly
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly, with his song
I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him, and listen for a while
And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes
(repeat chorus)
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters, and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on
(rpt chorus)
He sang as if he knew me, and all my dark despair
He kept on looking right through me as if I wasn't there
And then he kept on singing, singing clear and strong
(repeat chorus till fade)

É engraçado como todas as cantoras atingem um determinado nível de sucesso e pintam o cabelo de loiro! Deve ser praxe ou o «caraças»!... Enfim, a meu ver fica-lhe mal. E o justin foi o grande vemcedor da noite como era de esperar. =D
Stop. Me.
- I'm Cameron. I'm exactly like her. I hate her.
- She's too nice, too sweet. I need to stop! This needs to stop.
- Everyone elses wishes being ok needs to stop.
- Everyone elses ideias being right need to stop.
- Everyone elses actions being ok needs to stop.
- No more Cameron.
- No more being so nice and understanding.
- No more being pushed aside or jerked around.
- No more me. Me is over.
- Now there's a new me.
- And this me puts up with no crap.
Goodbye old me.

I didn't really know how to start this blog. What should I wright about? What should I say? Well, since one of the things that can take me away from this overwhelming reality is indeed music, I decided it was a good idea to introduce myself by posting a videoclip of a song which is one of my favourite ever.
It isn't the most accurate definition of myself for it would not be complete but it shows something. Plus, this is one of my favourite bands, if not THE favourite.
Pearl Jam com Ben Harper nesta versão 'live' da Indifference
I would also like to "warn" that I'm going to be saying a lot a nonsense about how I feel or what I think about people or several situations. Feel free to say it's ridiculous. I think it's ridiculous too.
