viewing these is like an addiction for me, they make me feel so calm and I would like to be like them.

my psychologist says that its a signal of the inability to accept mental illness/instability and being afraid to reach out for help from those around them.

By changing your physical form to something clearly sick/dying you are communicating to your bystanders that you need help, but you don't need to admit it outloud. (In my family we aren't allowed to talk about our feelings.)

And most times depression and anxiety is overlooked since it has no physical symptom. its all 'in your head'. When I started being bulimic, it wasn't visible either, since I would both binge and purge. So now I subconsciously strive to be anorexic, since it is clearly the better one of all the eating disorders[and yes I know how deluded that sounds].
