(and the thing that scares me is that a girl i really liked...like was IN LOVE with for like 4 years has anorexia...and she just recently moved away ....and has been emotionally vacant towards me for the past few years...and treated me like crap so i wonder if this has something to do with it)

Replies dakotablue Posted at 11:31 am on July 12, 2008 Um, i don't think you're anorexic, but i couldn't say that for sure, because i don't know you. The thing is, people who are anorexic see themselves as being really fat, and they hate themselves for it (or at least i did) and they purposefully stop eating. i didn't get that from your post. honestly, when i was really bad i would never have touched chips or chicken fingers because of all the fat in them. heck, i was scared to eat a slice of white bread even if it was all i was gonna eat that day. I think probably you do need help if your behaviour has changed, and i would recommend seeing a doctor, especially this early, you should check it out. i don't think you're anorexic now, but if you don't check it out, it might turn into that. getting help early for eating disorders has the best recovery rate. i hope you do well and manage to recover from whatever it is! it sounds like maybe you're having a hard time with this girl moving away. xxx ignatius Posted at 10:17 am on July 12, 2008 You're not anorexic because you lost your appetite lately , maybe a little depressed . Are you feeling tired all the time and having bad thoughts , too? devilindisguize Posted at 3:31 am on July 12, 2008 not eating much doesnt always mean an eating disorder, it just means youre not eating much. if it gets worse, then maybe you should see someone Sara2011 Posted at 12:55 pm on July 11, 2008 yes, its common for people to go through stages of not eating as much, but you shouldn't worry much about it until you stop eating for days at a time.

Stop reposting and get to a doctor. skittybaby Posted at 12:51 pm on July 11, 2008 sometimes people go through phases where they dont eat so much All 9 previous replies displayed.
