Help me. im fighting an eating disorder. ?

Question

i dont know what to do anymore.

at the middle of last year i felt so fat. so i started to starve for the entire day and binge towards the end. i lost about 5 pounds doing so. i'm about 107 now and im 5'0.

this summer has been so hard. ive been going through periods of 2-3 days where i'll completely starve myself to 200 cals a day, and then give in and change my mind at the last minute.

i dont know what to do. im thinking of starving myself today. i have no choice. all i see is fat. i dont want to be this way. i want to be normal. i want to feel pretty. the only thing keeping me from becoming completely anorexic is that i dont want to lose my "girly figure."

i cant tell anyone. my parents dont understand and will just laugh at me like they always do. my friends arent supportive at all. i cant go to a clinic. we cant afford anything like that.

ive tried everything. ive watched videos, looked through all the consequences, looked at lists of people that die from it. but nothing can stop it.

please. someone help me. has anyone been through this?

i dont want to die.

im only 15.

Answer 1

If you want to be normal stop watching your calories and weight, eat three square meals a day and take a bit of exercise.

get a job that requires physical activity--if your burning more CAL than your taking in, youll stay fit.

Answer 4

Please don,t blame god for everything, god created us and let live in this world, and he gives us so many rights those are totally under our control aspect death case.For eg- god commanded us to pray 5 time a day but most of us dont. like wise first at all you should stop eating too much even in meal time, other time when you feel hungry pls have a cup of watter. If you do this for a couple of week i swear you will be learn better improvement. It is advisable in religion that not to eat full of tummy you should eat1/3 of out stomach ,other part for water , and another part for breathing.....Wish you get figure out this problems soon

Walk outside. Look up at God. And cuss him out. Tell him that you need his help and ask him why he isn't helping you. Seriously try it.

Answer 7

Even if you may not really be a "child", you can try calling Children's Aid.

If you get really desparate, call 911. There is nothing wrong with that because you have a genuine concern and need help.

If your parents won't help you, tell them there is something "private" you wish to discuss with your family doctor as soon as possible.

He/She may refer you to a psychiatrist so you can bounce back from this thing. You will!!!

Answer 8

you sound intelligent, self motivated, and logical!  i know it's hard, but you don't need to worry about what other people think of you.  i'm sure there are dozens of people at school weather you know it or not think nothing but good things about you no matter what!  i think the important thing now though is you find someone you can talk to. i assure you 100% they WILL understand.  if you can't talk to a parent, maybe a teacher, or a friends parent, your principal or school counselor. those people really are there to help you. please, trust me.  fighting on your own is a burden someone your age (or anyone, really) doesn't need to bear.  making SOMEONE aware of your situation is the first step! you shouldn't have to dread eating, and hate yourself for not eating.  i wish you the best of luck! stay strong,  

please tell someone.

Answer 9

im 16 and go through periods like that too; a week or two where i starve myself. then i get too exhausted to keep doing it.

you should really speak to a doctor or a counsellor, but before that speak to your parents. i highly doubt whether they'd laugh at you; i think they'd probably be quite concerned and be willing to get you help.

good luck sweetie, please try and be safe.
