My eating disorder is scaring me...

Question

I never eat and when I do, I make myself throw up. I used to be able to control it but now its gone out of my control. My stomach always hurts and teachers ask me if I'm eating enough, and have told me theyre worried about me. What should I do? There is no way I'm telling my parents....

Btw, I weigh about 115lbs and am 5'6. I'm losing a few pounds a week. Also I'm diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety

Answer 1

I know that you don't want to tell your parents but this is a life threating situation. If you don't want to talk to them face to face write them a letter. If you have an older sibling talk to them about it. Ask them to talk to your parents.  

Answer 2

Bulimia, the worst eating disorder in my opinion. I hate vomit! But maybe you should see a councilor? Or maybe try to find out ways to help your depression and anxiety problems, they probably cut off your appetite making you throw your food up before digesting it.

Answer 3

Doing that c**p is gonna tear up your insides from vomiting too much.

Answer 4

Have you told anyone? Try telling a friend and having him/her help you through. Its become an addiction, and the more you give in, the harder it is to get out. I am not bulimicbut two of my close friends were, and thy stopped. Think of how gross it is:[ i mean, it rots your teeth, decays your thaort and ruins your mental balbalance

If its that bad, you may need help from a therapist.

[I've been sick recently, and my average weight is 119 and im 5'4. I've lost nine pounds and i cry when i see the difference. I hate not being my average weight.]

Answer 5

That sounds really scary. You really should tell your parents but you don't have to do that to get help. Since you already know you have depression and anxiety ask to see a therapist. It is likely your mom won't question your motives since you do have depression and if she does you can tell her that you are just really upset and you want to talk to the therapist. Anything you tell your therapist is confidential and they will help you. Please get help.

Answer 6

hi

your story is realy sad

i have never known anyone with an eating disorder so i dont know what to tell you

but i think this kind of thing really needs proffesional help

do you know why you started it?

if it is something like you dont think your pretty or you tjhink your fat

you need to iunderstand that doing what your doing wont help anything.

you need to stop

i guess you could try small steps like eating tiny portions of food and telling yiurself that you can keep it down and that you want to get better

but i think you need to talk to someone whether it be your parents or a help hotline.

i hope i helped and i hope you get better

:)

Answer 7

You're Bulimic:

A disorder in which people binge and then make themselves sick. I would suggest eating small amounts. I'm guessing that you make yourself sick because you think that you may get fat when you eat?

Answer 8

Do you care more about being skinny then your face??? then your teeth???? then your hair???? cos you will lose them all with this disease...trust me a few years from now you wont have any teeth left...your hair will be falling out and you will look old...tell someone and get help now! if you didn't want help you wouldn't be asking this question...just tell you parents...that is what they are there for!!!!!!!!!!!!
