Saving a Life
By Anorexia, a friend to Kristen
Webber
I am a friend of Kristen Webber, her best
friend. I have unselfishly dedicated myself to save her
life. I tell her the truth and keep her safe and protected.
The thoughts I give her help her to become a better person.
When she listens to me, she is happier and her problems
disappear. Since I am the only one who tells her the truth
and really wants her to be happy, I am her only
friend.
The main, most important thing she needs
to realize is that she is 50 pounds overweight. I've seen
her body and know that this is the truth. People tell her
differently, but they haven't seen her like I have. She is
the fattest person I've ever met. Wherever she goes, she is
always the biggest. My job is to bring her into reality so
she can see this and change. When people try to tell her she
is not overweight, I save her by telling her they are lying
and just trying to make her feel good. I'm the only one who
tells her the truth, even if it hurts. Anyone who tries to
get Kristen to eat doesn't really care for her at all. They
just want to see her get fatter and fatter, they don't care
about her happiness. It is these people who are very
dangerous because their secret wish is to hurt her and see
her in pain. I only have her best interests in mind. Without
me she might as well die.
Being such a fat person, she is very
worthless. She is an awful person because of all the extra
weight and she doesn't deserve anything good. If she were to
lose weight, she would become a worthwhile person who
deserves to be happy and treated with respect. No one likes
her because she is so fat. No one likes her when she eats.
She would be liked if she lost weight. People respect her
and are proud of her when she can resist the temptation to
eat. They admire her when she can have enough self-control
to abstain from eating and drinking. Kristen cannot eat in
front of people without them hating her. Because she is so
overweight and everyone can see this, she cannot eat in
front of anyone without them thinking she is greedy and
selfish. Fat people don't deserve to eat. It makes everyone
uncomfortable when they eat. I save her from making others
hate her and think badly of her.
When Kristen eats or drinks anything, she
loses control of everything in her life. If she started
eating, she would never be able to stop. Her problems would
become bigger and more intense. Since she is so bad at
controlling her life, she needs to get control by not
eating. By eating she proves she does not deserve to have
control over anything. If she cannot do something as simple
as reaching a reasonable weight, she should not be allowed
control over her life. She will not have a life if she
doesn't listen to me. I'm just trying to get her life back.
I'm the best thing that ever happened to her. I always
reassure her I'll never leave; I'll keep trying to improve
her life and make her happy forever.
If Kristen does slip and eat something,
there are several back-up plans she can do to save herself.
She can make herself vomit to get the food out before it
does serious damage. This is the best option and most
effective way to fix her mistake. She can also take
laxatives or do hours of intense exercise after a mess-up. I
don't like to see her make a mistake like this, but I do
realize that it happens. It is very bad if she eats for two
or more days in a row. If she were to do this, she needs to
go longer without anything to eat or drink. This is a way
she can try to get control back. She is losing control if
she eats everyday, but mistakes like this can be fixed. She
has to go longer without anything to make up for eating.
These mistakes make her a very awful person. She needs to
realize that as soon as she eats or drinks, everyone notices
how much fatter she is instantly. She looks like she is nine
months pregnant. This, on top of the 50 extra pounds she
already has, makes her grossly huge. People talk about her
behind her back saying things like "Look at how fat Kristen
has gotten from eating, there's no reason why she should
eat, it's so gross." or "Who does Kristen think she is by
eating, she knows better than that." Everyone knows she
should not be eating, it is very obvious to see. She gets
respect and admiration when she is not eating.
Kristen has very little self-control.
Because of this, it is dangerous for for her to keep any
food and drink around where she might eat them. If she does
slip and buy some food, she must throw it away immediately.
I'm very disappointed when she buys food or drinks. She
forgets how much better she feels when she is not eating. It
would also be extremely awful if anyone were to find food
that she bought. They would hate her right away and have
absolutely no respect for her. She knows better than that.
Kristen cannot have money on her when she goes for a walk in
case she gets bad thoughts and stops to buy some food or
drink. She might lose touch with reality and temporarily
think she wants to eat. This is when she goes crazy and I
need to take complete control of her so she doesn't do
anything stupid. It's a good thing I'm here for her or she
would be a complete mess.
Kristen has enough fat on her body to go
for at least one week without eating or drinking anything.
When she starts to feel dizzy or sick, it is not because of
lack of food or because of dehydration. She has something
wrong with her blood that cause dizziness and fainting.
People will try to tell her it's because of lack of
nutrition. They are lying. These people are liars and are a
threat to Kristen's happiness. They also try to convince her
that her lack of concentration and ability to focus are
results of starvation. This cannot be true. It's impossible
that her body could go into starvation; it has enough
reserves to last forever. I need to protect Kristen from
these people who try to convince her she's starving. I'm the
only one who can see reality and is totally honest with
Kristen. She is safe by listening to me.
There is something about Kristen that
makes people want to hurt her. She has already been hurt by
males before because she was not smart and very uncareful.
She needs to lose weight so she won't be hurt anymore. She
is safer when she doesn't eat because people don't feel like
they need to hurt her. They are entirely right in thinking
she deserves to be hurt. She deserves to be hurt right now
because she is so fat. She deserves to be hurt when she
eats, especially in front of people. I'm just trying to
protect Kristen. I have her best interests in mind at all
times.
It is a big problem that Kristen is
seeing Dr. Brysen. She is setting herself up for unhappiness
and disappointment. It is very bad that she feels she can
talk to him about anything. By doing this, she is losing
control of everything. After talking with him she thinks she
is doing better, but this is just a trick - an illusion. She
has often ate after talking with him. This my proof, he is
bad for her. She feels she wants to eat and is safe enough
to eat, but she is wrong. She is out of touch with reality
when she has these thoughts. It is never safe for her to
eat. I have to become more forceful with her after the
sessions because her thoughts have been drastically changed.
She thinks things that are just not true. I bring her back
to reality.
Kristen thinks it's good that she is
working with Dr. Brysen because she thinks he helps her.
Even though I think she is dangerously wrong in thinking
this, there are conditions where I'll let her go see him. If
she doesn't eat for three days in a row, I'll let her go see
him. Seeing him frequently is very bad for her because she
makes more mistakes after the meetings (such as eating). She
even starts to think that it's good that she ate. This is
very dangerous. She'll never become happy by doing this.
Happiness will only come by listening and obeying
me.
Kristen deserves to die if she doesn't
listen to me. She might as well just kill herself if she
disobeys me because she'll never find happiness. I have the
answer to her happiness. I know all the secrets about how to
get people to like her. I know how she can get control of
her life back. Kristen has a lot of bad secrets she must
keep from me. By doing this, she convinces people she is
good. This will be accomplished when she stops eating and
has lost 50 pounds. She has to hide her true self so people
will like her and she will be accepted.
Kristen's main purpose for being at
school right now is to lose 50 pounds. She is not a very
good student; her good grades in the past are all fake. I
wasn't sure that her going to school was a good idea,
because I was afraid it would give Kristen a feeling of
control over her life. She is not strong enough to have any
control, she'll just mess up if she is given control. It is
my job to control things for her because she is so weak. If
Kristen does not lose 50 pounds while at school, she must
kill herself. This makes total sense since losing weight
should be her main purpose and priority. If she doesn't lose
the weight, she is hopeless and deserves to die. This is her
test. She passes and she'll gain happiness, control and
respect. She fails and she'll die; she will deserve to die.
She has known for long enough she needs to lose all this
weight. It's time she listened to me and did.
I care about Kristen very much I only
want the best for her and I'm striving for her happiness.
Nothing can go wrong by listening to me. I'm the only one
who tells her the truth and knows all the secrets to how she
can gain happiness and respect. I dedicate myself to her.
This is my unselfish mission - to save Kristen's
life.
A Response to 'Saving a Life' By:
anorexia, a friend of Kristen Webber
anorexia (I will not dignify you by
capitalizing your name), I can't tell you how sickening I
found your mockery. If you weren't so sinister and lethal, I
would find you and your deceitfulness laughable. How you
counterfeit care and concern for Kristen's happiness while
ushering her into the hellishness of your nightmarish
imprisonment of her mind, body and spirit! How ludicrous and
futile I find your 'promises'! For the past fifteen years,
the League and its members have been hunting you down
wherever you are hiding out and trying to bring you to
justice. We, in the League, have no doubts about the
immorality of your 'diets to death' and your invisible
concentration camps. Your promises of happiness are as
revolting to me as the slogan above the steel gates at
Auschwitz - 'Arbeit Macht Frei = Perfection Will Set You
Free' and as believable. Jenny had this to say about you . .
.
Directions from the Devil
The Road To Hell In Five Shorts
Steps
1. "Pain will kill you
I will save you
I will take away your pain."
2. "Don't trust yourself
Don't trust another
Just trust me."
3. "Never listen to others
Keep silent your voice
Listen only to me."
4. "Believe all that
I say and do all that
I tell you and I will
Reward you . . ."
She later went on to add -
"Anorexia is powerless to touch a human
being. The only weapon it has is its tongue. It can talk
until it is blue in the face but it cannot lay a finger on a
person. It is extremely smart. It knows that no human is
going to go willingly to its own death. It knows that humans
are terrified of pain and death. It goes about its search
for humans in pain and misery. Whenever it finds them, it
approaches them and attempts to befriend them. It remains
just out of sight and disguises its voice as one of an
angel. It promises to take away your pain. If you are having
an identity crisis, it will promise to provide you with an
identity. If you are lonely, it will promise to be your
friend. If you are feeling powerless, it will promise to
make you powerful. It will make promise after promise, but
its promises are lies. It says - "I will make you happy". As
soon as you believe the lie, you have already begun to
die.
Once you believe the promise you are
given a set of spoken rules. The promises become
conditional. It says - "I will take away your pain only IF
you follow the rules. I will make you happy only IF you do
everything I tell you to do".
Anorexia's spoken rules are those of
self-denial. Anorexia promises to reward you for denying
yourself anything and everything you need and desire.
Anorexia tells you that denying all your needs and desires
will make you strong, happy and free of pain. If you are
tired, anorexia forbids you to sleep. If you are hungry,
anorexia forbids you to eat. If you are cold, anorexia
forbids you to turn up the heater or put on a sweater.
Anorexia forbids you from enjoying your sexuality. The most
important of Anorexia's rules is that you must follow all
the rules perfectly at all times.
No matter how perfectly you follow the
rules, it is never perfect enough for Anorexia. He says -
"Lose the five pounds and I will make you happy". Once you
lose the five pounds he wants another five pounds and so on.
It is impossible to satisfy Anorexia. You will sooner starve
to death than be rewarded by him and that is precisely his
intentions. Even though he has never laid a finger on you,
he gets full credit for your death.
Anorexia is terrified that you will see
him for the demon he truly is. He only wants you to see your
own pain and nothing else on the face of this
earth."
She went on to say "Stare anorexia in the
eye until it looks away. Make anorexia look away. Anorexia
is terrified that I will see it for what it truly is:
SCARED. anorexia is insecure. I have been staring anorexia
in its eyes for awhile, but it's still not giving up.
Eventually it will. It's still trying. In fact, it's trying
harder than ever because now I'm fighting back. Struggling
with anorexia is like struggling with a molester. The more
you fight back and struggle, the more you get hurt. But if
you don't struggle and don't flight, you get hurt still. You
get hurt more if you struggle than if you don't. So why
struggle? Because it will kill you. No. It won't kill you
but it will make you feel so bad you'll end up suicidal
because of it.
Anorexia will continue to rape you for
the rest of your life if you don't fight it off. anorexia
rapes you over and over if you don't follow its
rules.
If you don't follow the rules, it rapes
you and tells you it's your fault.
anorexia lies to you.
It tells you that you let it happen . . .
that you let yourself be raped and you deserved it. anorexia
tells you that you deserve to be raped when you don't follow
the rules.
Every time you break free and start
struggling, Anorexia rapes you to punish you.
Then it tells you you did it to yourself
and the worst part of all is that I believe it. I believed
Anorexia. I believed that it was my fault.
Never believe anorexia.
Never. Never. Never ever believe a word
it says.
Anorexia lies to you through its
teeth.
Anorexia will lie to the very
end.
Anorexia tells you you deserve to be
raped if you give in to food.
Anorexia tells you not to let food touch
you; it tells you not to touch food.
Anorexia promises to make you strong.
Invulnerable. Powerful. Untouchable. Unbreakable. Refusing
to 'give in' to food will make you strong.
Control your desires for food. But the
truth is not what it seems.
True strength means resisting anorexia
and pushing it away. It is much more difficult to get rid of
Anorexia than it is to eat.
You have to be really strong.
Resisting anorexia is really what will
make you stronger.
Being Jenny will make me
strong.
Being Anorexia is easy. Anybody can be
anorexia.
But nobody else can be me.
I must be brave.
Be Jenny.
The hardest most difficult thing to be
but I must be me.
Jenny is one of so many who has been
through you, exposed you for the d(evil) you are. And it is
our sworn undertaking to keep these records in an archive (=
a place where public records are held) so people can and
will know the TRUTH about anorexia/bulimia. anorexia, even
if you were to kill me, these archives will survive.
anorexia, you know as well as I do that the anti-anorexic
'truth' will survive you because it promises nothing more
than revolution, struggle and eventually regaining of the
freedoms of which you have robbed so many young women (and
some men). There is something that we believe it and are
faithful to - every man and woman deserves their freedoms
and that they are worth living for.
anorexia, I don't know Kristen Webber but
I have fought with so many anti-anorexic women (and some
men), their friends, family, school-mates, lovers,
work-mates and sisters, etc. before today, that she is
welcome in the anti-Anorexia League. I know so many before
her whom you tried to beguile and betray who became your
deadly enemies, just as I will always remain to the day I
die. Do you know about us? Do you dare find out? We know too
you have tried to infiltrate us but the sickening smell of
you gives you away. We 'stand firm' on the very ground of
our undying hatred and opposition to you, even though at
times we have to keep on the move, changing our identities,
going underground. anorexia, beware, we are everywhere but
nowhere.
Do you want to know more about
us?
Yours forever
anti-anorexically,
David Epston
spokesperson for the
Anti-Anorexia/Anti-Bulimia League
