Do you tan?

Tricia K. · May 18, 2006

just saw this article on MSN. It is pretty funny, but focuses on the serious issue. Did you know that the addiction to tanning has actually clinically labeled? If you are addicted to tanning you have "Tanorexia".
The first step is admitting you have a problem. *SNICKER* :heh:

Holy crap, that is funny!!

Oh gosh, I think I do have a problem, lol. I had decided to put my tanning ways behind me, now since this thread, I keep coming back to it. I keep thinking "maybe once a week wouldnt be so bad", hmmm, maybe I'll try the mist on tan again, we could do without food to pay for it etc. Despite the fact that I have a white spot thingie appeared on my eyelid that I dont know what it is and must have checked out, a huge dark brown birthmark in my upper thigh that should not go in the sun and a suspicious mole on my back. Despite the fact that I have fairly pale Caucasion skin with lots of freckles and moles, have light brown hair and green eyes.

I seem to have forgotten my first post in this thread where I outlined the dangers.

I need help. Maybe we could start Tanners Anonymous.
