Probably the most important message of that movie: "Stop waiting for life to be easy. Stop hoping for somebody to save you. [...] But you are resilient. Face some hard facts and you could have an incredible life."
@@lemongrassbitch945 I know that Feeling. I had to grow up very early in my life. I was Always the one looking Out for everyone. Everyone except me. But I Started to Care for my self and treat me better. Now I'm stronger and healthier. Life is so much better when you live yourself and Not Just for others
Why is it wrong to want someone to save you? When no one ever did when you were little.. why does someone always have to be strong.. or perfect.. strong.. why cant it be okay to be scared and to ache for someone to give you what you never felt and ached for before..
i love to the bone. it shows anorexia is not just about being scared of gaining weight. it’s scared of consuming food, touching it, smelling it, and being around it. it doesn’t deserve the hate it gets.
Idiot Nidiot Theat's why Ellen's sister responds that hundreds of people who were about to die said the exact same thing. Homestly, this movie has so many good points that people just ignored... it makes me kinda sad that everyone focused on the problems with it, instead of the good...
@sleepwalking hey! I only just saw your response, I’ve been through a lot with my mental health and it’s been rough but I’m doing very well and I now have my own RU-vid channel called Hopeful Living
When I was in the state hospital I had a therapist exactly like him and he was amazing and so real!! I miss him tbh...and the funny thing is is that when I watched this movie and then ended up in the hospital I thought he was the dude in the movie. I got scared cause even tho he was chill he was also VERY honest and straight to the point but in a weirdly caring way....he would always stop me when talking to point out thinking errors and how it wasn’t all my fault! In conclusion the man was so amazing, funny, caring, and sometimes brutally honest person...(sorry for the vent 😅 he was just a lot like the therapist guy in the movie)
The scene when the mom said she was okay with letting her go fucked me up because I had a similar conversation with my dad at my worst and he’s not usually the feelings type of guy but he was just shaking and I realized just how much me hurting hurt him
i've kinda noticed that when casting directors want to film a character who looks, in this case unhealthily thin, it's a lot cheaper and less time consuming to use actors who already look closer to the part or can get to a goal in a shorter amount of time and i think that's why she was in rbs and to the bone
when they ask “do you think that’s beautiful?” and you say no. the real answer is yes i wouldn’t be doing this to myself if i thought it was ugly. this was my goal. i reached it. and i’m not going to stop.
sleepwalking oh forget it. it's bcs i'm brazilian and i saw an user in wattpad with the same icon as you, and for some reason i though the name was the same.. but i think i was just tired or something hahsh
You know what's funny to me is that I've heard a bunch of people day that these movies are a misrepresentation of eating disorders. All of those people don't have eating disorders and they know that I do. I think these movies are great and a good representation. People with eating disorders are still people we act human we have fun we live our lives were not devoid of emotion or thought.
I loved this movie because I related to it so much. My mom didn’t want me living with her, my stepmom is like hers, and Ive struggled with anorexia. Just know, if you’re struggling, it gets better. I love you❤️
i remember watching these years ago when i was sick. i hope that someday u will realise that u ARE sick enough to start recovery, that nothing is worth treating ur mind and body with hatred that u would never treat anyone else with. u deserve more than this, u deserve to be on ur own side. please start recovery. i’m on ur side.
I love Ellen's step mum and her sister so much in this movie. You can see that they just love Ellen so much and you can tell their heart's are breaking, they just don't know how to help her xxx
It’s funny to read people that type “I want to have that” or “I’m planning to have this disease” because when you have it you know you didn’t decide to, it just happens :(
@@idioteque5389 Thanks! I’m already recovered but I feel bad for the people that haven’t :( I guess that after you got something like this you become more empathic towards people
I tend to get so anxious that I starve myself for entire days . But I’ll never feel valide enough because we can’t see it . I lost so much weight and everyone noticed except me . I was just happy to lose weight . That same pain everyday , that guilt , that taste in your mouth .
You know it sucks to realize that other people got this too I can go 4 days no food that 5th day is when I eat but I just throw it up. It hurts because I can lose 5 pounds a day but then you still can’t see the bones it sucks I don’t want to live like this it’s just really the only thing I can control that’s what I put in my body I feel like people that don’t know all of this just judge but the truth is, it’s all just a big game in a way I can only focus on not wanting to eat I sound metal but stuff happens to people and this is my result
This is such a good edit, it captures all the best parts of this movie and its sad heartbreaking moments, it’s heart warming ones, and the important ones
This movie (more the video because it's so short and to the point, thank you) is actually helping me recover. It's rare that you see a protagonist like this in ED films. She doesn't glorifying her body. She doesn't sexualize it. She is battling CONTROL. She is filling voids in her life with ED to pretend she's not helpless. She hates food because it's one of the things that controls her. I need a different type of control. I need to control my relationship with food and myself. I can't control others or every aspect of my life. I can only do everything in my power to make me happy. One of those ways is to become healthy and stop torturing myself. I love you all and I hope one day you can trust yourself with food and have a good relationship with it because your body is so much smarter than you. Good luck everyone, you deserve happiness and success.
I’ve always had a problem with food. When I was 13, I went on a binge and ate whatever I wanted for 6 months, then had a panic attack and went on a binge workout session, lost weight and barely ate. I didn’t notice anything at all. After a couple months i started eating again, i lost weight and it goes up and down constantly. When I eat I EAT when i lose weight it drops too low. I wouldn’t call it a eating disorder but it is a complicated relationship. My friends told me years after they noticed the changes in my body back then and sometimes now
Unlike the movie, this edit made me actually want to recover. It’s beautiful. The lack of atypical anorexia representation, years after the diagnosis came out, is inexcusable. The stereotype of all people with EDs being shockingly thin was dangerous to promote. Not even most bulimics are underweight. Atypical AN is just as dangerous. People die cuz they don’t “look like” they need help
Use this as an inspiration rather than a trigger. Hold on to your life as you only get one chance at it. Yes I am a sufferer of anorexia since 2011 and I fully understand the mental anguish you must be feeling atm. No one is saying it is easy by any means. But if I look at it from where I was to where I am now, I have come a long way. I have had my fair share of admissions both medical and eating disorder ward inpatient admissions. I spent most of my time inpatient than I did out in the community. However for the last year I have managed to remain medically stable and not had one admission for one whole year. This is a huge accomplishment for me and a huge step forward. There is still room for improvement. But that will come with time. Keep fighting. Fight hard for the life you deserve
I felt what it was like to “fade.” I was anorexic for a year or two. Everybody saw I was very skinny, but nobody actually cared. I healed myself, somehow, and even myself cannot contemplate it. I am working on gaining muscle, for the most part. I have been clean of an ED for 6 months. You only know what it’s like if you’ve experienced it, and I did. I am almost glad I went through it. Now I know what it’s like for others. I was well on my way to killing myself. When I talk about my past ED, people say things like, “Oh, it wasn’t that bad.” Like, what the hell, I was in pain. Food and the thought of being skinny consumed my mind. I hated the words, “just eat.” To this day I still do; it brings back horrible memories.
sleepwalking I’m okay. Better than I was. People always say to be happy, or to be good, and I knows that I’ll get there eventually, but for now, I’m okay with being okay. I’m okay with being me. And that’s a lot.
way too relatable 😢 I haven’t had a period in years, “you look like a ghost” is exactly what my mom says to me.. and it’s like somehow I’m proud.. thinking this looks beautiful
i wanted to watch to the bone cuz i can sleep good while it's on, so i searched on yt for it cuz i was to lazy to turn my tv with netflix on and than i found this amazing edit❤️ now i'm watching it on my tv haha
You ever hear that voice so many times it drives you to kill urself or to stop eating or stuff like that its really hard i dont think im beautiful i do stupid things but its not my fault but this video shows alot to me xox
im gonna reach my ugw of 40 kgs / 89 lbs by september or october of next year. i cant wait. my cw is 127 lbs but it used to be 166 lbs 6-7 months ago. i lost 38 lbs and i can lose 38 more, and idgaf ab dying
Please seek help, dying right now may be the least of your concerns but think of the people you love getting a phone call that you’re in the hospital. Please don’t starve yourself.
@@sadie5957 i posted that 4 months ago, i actually got sent to the mental hospital and gained weight, but lost it again somehow, i dont even know how im eating normally now, i weigh 110 lbs now, but im not losing any more weight
this is so beautiful, i almost cried!! i love this :) can i ask you where you downloaded "to the bone"? because i've been looking for it for so long, thankssss
Its not that I wanna lose weight... I guess... But I wanna feel bones when i touch my ribs.... Idk why but..... I do..... And i don't have anorexia or a eating disorder but i feel disgusted when I eat 3 or more meals and I feel good when I eat nothing at all.. And the on my reason I still eat is because I'm trying to makesure my mom doesnt find out.... Sorry.... I just needed to get it off my chest even though no one will see......... Sorry.... Sorry I'll go now
