I have felt like crap lately, and I'm just not hungry. My mom is yelling at me about her thinking I'm becoming anorexic and making me even more stressed so I'm not hungry.

I'm just not hungry, I don't think it's good to just sit and stuff your face if your belly feels full.

I just want to be left alone, is it depression or an eating disorder?

You just need to be calm and find an outlet. I don't think your depressed or have an eating disorder.

I would say depression

i wouldnt say either...depression has many more symptoms and if you eat regularly the rest of the time then it isnt an eating disorder

Whatever it is I am the same way. As long as you eat eventually during the day don't worry about it.

probably depression, unless you have a negative body image then its easy to rule out anorexia

depression....got to a psychologist and force yourself to eat...trust me in the long run it will be healthy...plus...tell your mom that she is hurting you and not because of her or anything...but you would like to see a psychologist to get some help.

That's happened to me before. Eat some fruit. Like an orange or something. Berry's are also a delicious alternative.

don't eat if you're not hungry. i get like that sometimes too. and my mom gets the same way...

Well if you really are "just not hungry" then it is probably not an eating disorder.  If you are ignoring your hunger, then it probably is.  It depends on how you see yourself and why you don't eat really.  As for depression, I really don't know a lot about the symptoms for it, so I can't really comment.
