Eating affecting my mood?

[screamtobeheard]

Right now I'm in the greatest mood. Because I just played intense volleyball for about two hours, and I haven't eaten in 14 hours. All I've had today is a bowl of cereal. But...my mood gets better when I don't eat much. And it's bad if I eat a lot. Is that normal?

[Fiction]

It's not normal as such.. but it's pretty normal for someone with an ED. I get it too. For me i think it's because i see it as almost achieving something. It's not a good thing though and defintely a sign that you should be getting help. :hug:

Ugh, but I can't get help yet. My mom found out I was purging once, and all she did was scream at me for it...and that's not even the bad part of my problems, so I had to convince her I didn't do it anymore. :/

Parents almost always react badly to things at first, mine did too. If you can get help though, beyond that your parents don't even need to be involved. I take myself to the doctors and my parents know, but pretty much ignore it.

I guess that's true. It's just kinda scary.

[BrokenButterflies]

I'm like that too. And it causes lots of probloms with my parents.

[Lethe]

No, it isn't normal. You're supposed to feel good when you eat, not the opposite. Have you gotten any help for your ED yet?

I understand it's scary, but really if this carries on they will find out eventually. Do it now whil youstill have a certain amount of control over how and when they find out xx
