Re: I pretty sure I have anorexia - March 25th 2011, 12:47 AM

Hey there,

It might be that you do have anorexia. But this thing with anorexia is that it comes from depression. The key to figuring out if you have anorexia comes down to reasons as to why you don't eat and why it disgusts you. Do you find that you don't like food and not eat more when you are stressed or angry? Or is it an all the time things.

According to this website, anorexia comes down to this

Quote:
-refusal to maintain a healthy body weight
-an intense fear of gaining weight
-a distorted body image
There are loads of info on this website that I encourage you to read. Do some research. I would talk to a school counselor or a teacher you trust about this, if you don't want to talk to your step mom. Can you talk to another adult? Disordered eating is not healthy by any means, and you should take care of it before it gets too out of hand. another help would be if you ate foods that were healthy and light on the stomach. You may not feel like you are hungry, but your body is probably starving.

Hope this helps!
