What are the good and bad effects of anorexia?
Additional Details
Just adding this. And i disagree with yoo, i found loads of pro-ana sites. Thanks for the long lists, i have a twisted fear of odd things, and on of those fears is a fear of vomit, and vomiting, so if anorexia makes me get bugs easier, then im staying away from the scales for a bit. Thanks xD

how can there be good effects?

It can cause you to live a shorter life than not having the affliction - people will brand you as a 'sickie' . . .
Now - those are two potential effects of this 'illness' -
Whether or not either is good or bad is for you to determine.

I can't see any good effects of anorexia unless of course you want to die then you could call that a good effect but I wouldn't the bad effects is getting to thin and dying nothing good comes out of anorexia.

I'm not sure if there are any positive effects of anorexia but I am definitely sure that there are plenty of negative ones! Anorexia is a result of other serious health problems, such as depression, poor self-esteem, moodiness, antisocialness, abdominal pains...and many other even more serious problems. Anorexia can lead to lethal complications and should be treated immediately. It really is no laughing matter. Some problems from anorexia include OCD, deterioration of relationships with family/friends, poor circulation, constipation....there are just too many to list off. Contact a professional as soon as possible if you know somebody with symptoms of such an issue. Best of luck.

there are no good effects just that you will feel tired, ill and have it take control of every part of your entire life and the only thing you will constantly think of and you will also experience insomnia
audreyhepcarmen
obviously the bad effects are the very hish risks of death and emaciation and the good may be that the victim recieves more attention from their friends family ect. and will be taken care of more carefuly which is one of the reasons people will choose to not eat, to gain attention but in conclusion there really are no good effects of anorexia
jbone907
there are only bad effects. Nothing good comes from anorexia. it's a serious disorder.

There are no good effects of anorexia. There are plenty of bad effects:
Physical effects of anorexia
In addition to the wide-ranging physical effects of anorexia the following can occur:
Hair loss
Lowered resistance to illness
Hypersensitivity to heat
Less need for sleep than normal eaters
Severe dehydration, which can result in kidney failure
Fatigue and overall weakness
In severe cases: heart trouble, low blood pressure, low heart rate, low body temperature, poor circulation, anemia, stunted growth, and even death
Emotional and behavioral effects of anorexia
In addition to the depression, irritability, and bad memory noted in Brain and Nerves in the diagram above, the following emotional and behavioral effects of anorexia can occur:
Difficulty in concentrating on anything else except weight
Isolation from family and friends
Emotional regression to a child-like state
Feelings of guilt
Dependence upon alcohol or drugs to handle the negative outlook
Professor Crazyass
well first off there is absolutely nothing positive or good from anorexia, i mean unless you like feeling like you're going to pass out any moment, and being hardly functional....oh not to mention, you could die. So the bad things....well, everything, you may lose weight fast, but you will gain it all back and then some if you haven't already died. so if you're in anyway considering that as an option, i think you should really talk to more people who have had that problem, because every single one of them will tell you the same thing.....its just not worth it.
katiegrace
nothing good comes from anorexia the bad is you get thin as a rail and get to the point where food scares you. you get weak your hair gets thin and dull and yoiur rarely happy. and when you eat again you get sick

There are no good effexts of anorexia. The bad ones include
Poor skin and hair
Loss of reproductive function (if you lose too much weight) you lose your period.
Always cold
Bone and muscle loss
Risk of heart failure
That wasting away appearance is just ghastly.
Any bones sticking out is just gross.

Here is a good article I found for you...
Last night I watched with interest a media insight into the world of eating disorders. Paula Zahn of CNN took an hour-long look at different types of eating disorders in men, women, and children in a segment entitled "Walking the Thin Line."
The story featured discussions with celebrities Jane Fonda and Jamie-Lynn DiScala about their personal battles with bulimia and how it affected not only their careers but every aspect of their lives. Jockey Shane Sellers provided a male perspective as he talked about what he called the "dark side of racing:" days without food, constant "flipping" or purging massive quantities of food, and hours in a sauna to sweat out pounds of fluid. The most dramatic account of all, and the most difficult one for me to watch, was that of a young girl who developed anorexia when she was just five years old.
Although the CNN segment did not highlight treatment options or early warning signs for eating disorders, it did focus on raising awareness: An eating disorder is a disease that does not discriminate. These disorders affect men, women, and children of all ages and from all walks of life.
According to the National Eating Disorders Association, more than 10 million women and more than 1 million men are dealing with an eating disorder such as anorexia or bulimia. Many more do not have a diagnosable eating disorder but suffer from problematic patterns of eating and avoiding food, sometimes referred to as "disordered eating." Some groups, such as athletes, models, and food professionals, are more likely to develop an eating disorder because of their focus on food or weight.
But these are complex disorders and there are usually many other contributing factors to the disease. We know there are links to low self-esteem, depression, challenging relationships, and feelings that one lacks control over one's life, in addition to a strong correlation between eating disorders and some athletic pursuits. Eating disorders are considered psychiatric disorders, but the many nutritional and medical problems associated with them require the expertise of a multidisciplinary treatment team that includes mental health, medical, nutrition and nursing professionals.
My take-home message from the CNN program is that although eating disorders can have life-threatening effects, with proper help individuals can live normal and productive lives. Overcoming an eating disorder requires professional help, and there are many excellent resources available for individuals who have or think they may have an eating disorder. One is the Web site of the National Eating Disorders Association at

good effect is: you will become thinner
bad effect is: you can die of it just like KAREN CARPENTER

any illness hardly has a "good" side to it. If you call losing your ability to heal yourself from cuts, bruises and the occasional bug a good thing. If bringing your body as close to death as humanly possible is a goal, you need to talk to someone. Your hair and teeth will start to die away long before you do. and no one worth loving is going to want to be with an anorexic who is not getting the help that is needed to stay alive, and healthy.

there are no "good" affects.

There are no good effects, only bad effects; such as: poor health, bad posture, early death, etc... Follow a healthy diet and maintain a good body mass index. Click on link below.

Hey dummy, there's nothing good about starving yourself. No guy likes to see a girls rib cage, or get poked by a bone when hugging. Try eating a Healthy Diet.
saginawcomic
The only reason to get anorexic is if you are trapped behind bars and want to get skinny enough to slip out.
The bad part is, you mess up your internal organs from starvation.
mack j
the bad is that you can die but the good is you get to replace the missing skeleton in science class.

Good - nothing
Bad - osteoporosis, you look dead, your hair gets into a bad condition, everything else to do with becoming weak etc.. etc..
