even as i begin i know this will just end up sounding stupid, but i think i'm going to say it anyway.
ever since i was little i've always eaten loads , kind of comfort eating i guess. my family just find it funny- i had the biggest appitite of all of them, but i'm the skinnest. kind of inside joke i guess.
then last year, it stopped being comforting, and just made me sick at the sight of myself. i skipped meals at school, wherever i could, but always kept up my old habits at home, mainly 'cos i was scared my parents wood notice and confront me. but my friends started worrying, however much i protested that i still ate at home. but now its got to the point where i just want to give up, i dont want to have to lie to anyone anymore.
i know i dont have an eating disorder, but swapping from eating nothing to eating loads probably isnt healthy and i'm scared and not sure why. i just need to know what to do, and telling me just to eat won't work, 'cos i just cant do it. everytime i look at myself i hate it. i want to stop eating all together. but then my parents wood notice. i'm just so confused. :confused:

You say you don't have an eating disorder.. But to me it sounds like - from your post - that you have some sort of problems with yourself..

If your hungry you eat, if your not hungry you don't eat..

And unless your not hungry at all for days straight you are perfectly normal..

You may not have an eating disorder...yet!!
I think that you need to tell your parents that you just dont want to/ feel like eating. I know that telling your parents or family for me anyway is dreadful. I had to tell them i had bulimia :S anyway this is probally the best idea as they know you and will know what to do :)
