This thread has been labeled as triggering, particularly on the subject of eating disorders, by the original poster or by a Moderator. The contents of this thread might therefore not be suitable for certain sensitive users. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.
So, I was thinking about body dysmorphia (Sp?)
People with ED's view themselves as 'bigger', so, is it possible that people can view themselves as 'thinner' when they really aren't? I am having a hard time putting this into words. Sorry if this makes no sense.  I was looking for a breath of life For a little touch of heavenly light But all the choirs in my head say, no oh oh |

It is possible, yes, but it is not as common because being seen as "bigger" is not something that is really desired in society.

Probably. There's this girl in band who criticizes my weight all the time and compares us two. She says how skinny she is, but in reality, she's quite overweight. And it's not like she's extremely self-centered or anything (well, sort of), she legitimately thinks she's thinner than the average person. She's go out and buy like, really small clothes (ones a normal sophomore wouldn't fit into?) and wonder why she doesn't fit in them. She'll throw a fit during uniform fittings if she doesn't get the smallest concert dress or marching pants and will insist that she is way smaller than the size she was fitted for.
