The fact they’re showing me this after I just came yesterday from the Children’s Hospital due to Dehydration from Anorexia and Bulimia I’ve had since age 12 (I turned 13 this year in March) and they like gave me two IVs liquids with something on my chest that monitors respiratory or whatever and a feeding tube in the nose since I also don’t eat all day and refused to eat (I was even afraid to drink water and still amðŸ˜Â).

Stop labelling everything a disorder! No wonder so many teens are depressed and suicidal! We all ate more food, after we realised hoarding food was pointless and it's going to go bad.

NBC fake news selling propaganda for Democrats everyone in America knows this
You claim to be for the people ! Okay,…..So what happened to the virologist that escaped the Wuhan Labs, that is now living in America ? Is she still alive ? 3 million murdered
UKRAINIAN LIVES MATTER is an investigation film from a team of journalists and Hero of Ukraine Nadezhda Savchenko.
I ask Senators, Congresses, Governors and the FBI to watch this striking film.
I'm not a teen but I totally developed a binge eating disorder over the last 6 months……I'm a skinny guy but I was eating about 4,000 to 10,000 calories worth of junk food a day.
Still thin thankfully!
School never ended – I’m sorry she got an eating disorder but I’d suspect it’s more than the internet telling her about IF.

Quran, Surah Nisa, Verse 48:
Indeed, Allah does not forgive associating others with Him ˹in worship˺, but forgives anything else of whoever He wills. And whoever associates others with Allah has indeed committed a grave sin.
Life is uncertain, governments collapse, stock markets crash, wars destroy, relationships fall broken. It's deep in our hearts we yearn for security. We need a solid foundation, only God can provide this. He never changes. He promises and loves always. Look to Him for stability. God loves the world, He gave His Son Jesus (unto death for our sins), whoever believes in Him will not die but have everlasting life. John3:16 To be absent for this world is to be present with God. 2Corinthians5:8
The US is stuffed. Kuds self educating at home with no guidence. Leads to more extreme unchecked behaviours. The US already had a problem with this, with generations of skew wiff unfounded beliefs being passed diwn from the hippy era.
Stop the lockdowns then
