Yet another new acronym embraced by some pro-anas…

by angelique on May 24th, 2008

Every culture, sub-culture and group eventually create acronyms.  That way, followers can speak in code and feel… well… united.

Today, I learned about a new term that is purportedly used by some (not all) pro-anas:  SNATT.  It stands for “Semi-Nauseus All The Time.” 

SNATT is considered a positive thing among a few ana groups as well as many non-ana dieters because if you’re sick to your stomach, you’re less likely to even consider eating.  And everyone who has dealt with an eating disorder knows the feeling of SNATT — I remember it well. 

SNATT. 

You learn something new every day.

    I am new. I am uneducated about proanas and would like to know more. The hitch, I’m also not too good on computers. Can’t seem to get anyone to talk with me. What do I have to do? Tried to join a chat thing and got no where. Lost alone frustrated
