Someone said I do but I honestly feel my hair looks so short! I'll look in the mirror and it will look short but I'll take a pic and the pic looks longer to me but it's still short in my eyes when I look in the mirror. They just don't match up in my brain. I've had people ask me how long my hair was because I always wear it up and when I tell them and they want me to show them, I'm darn near embarrassed and don't want to because I feel they'll look at me like I'm crazy because it's NOT there even though it is. It's not at my goal yet (I want to be a solid 1 or 2 inches past bra strap so I can say I'm at bra strap and not feel I'm wrong) but I'd say it's "teasing" me. It's always drawn up because I'm 40 wks post relaxer so that does not help either.

pff i really have hair anorexia. I am tailbone length and still i have the feeling that it is not long enough. It is not because of lacking fullness because my hair is full. I know it is al between my ears...sometimes i just want to slap myself!

Hello my name is newnyer....and I am a hairanorexic. I'm proud of my length so far, I really am! Never been longer than CBL before & made my goal to be APL this year. As soon as I started to see the light at the end of the APL tunnel I wanted more! Ok, fine, BSB is the goal now. (okay maybe even BSL-but that'll be the end of it, right!?) I look at my APL status now & what I once thought as the ultimate length for me just seems...um, cool. I do have fine hair, too, so I know I would love to have thicker hair at ANY length.

I totally suffer from hairannorexia. Granted I'm at SL, so I still have a long way to go....but I'm pretty sure even when my hair looks like this:
I still won't be satisfied... My family thinks I'm ridiculous!

Me!
After a haircut to mid neck from almost BSB 18 months ago, that's when I realized what I took for granted (though I worked for it!).
Now that it's close to APL again I don't think it's long, just at the early stages of mid length kind of hair.
I'm so impatient over reaching length goals, get to it, then its "meh, x goal is next".

AND I blame the likes of LynnieB, Pokahontas, Longhairdontcare2011, Sera2544, and anyone past waist for my issues.
I'm suing for emotional distress

My hair is naturally thin and when you have thin hair it doesn't look as long as say someone with thick hair so I'm definitely a hair anorexic.

Don't get me wrong, I have MORE than enough hair as far as thickness, width, density, all that good stuff but I just feel like it is never long enough. I'm always tugging it down, talking about how short it is. Maybe when I reach HL or TBL, I'll finally be satisfied!

Omg I didn't know there was a name for my condition LOL. I was just looking in the mirror the other day at my hair wondering when I'd be satisfied.

i thought some on here were crazy to say they still wanted more length. to be honest, i kinda rolled my eyes at the tailbone length challenges...like really y'all want MORE hair . i started at SL and was like "when i get to MBL y'all can't tell me a dang thang". i'm past MBL but you can still tell me something. my current goal is now waist length...and that is not a firm ultimate goal either.

I posted in this thread in early 2012. Here it is, the end of 2014. I hit hip length, cut back to waist due to ends I wasn’t thrilled with, and now I'm back to whip. Yet through it all I cannot shake hair anorexia, and I still remember when apl seemed like an impossible goal. This hair journey is a trip!
