I think i'm developing an eating disorder.

[ErikaRae]

I'm 5'4 and 120 lbs, and I always feel fat.
When i'm hungry, I will not eat.
I probably only eat half a meal every day.
When my stomach growls, It feels good..
I feel like if my stomach is empty,
I wont gain weight. I also hate to eat around
other people if i must. I think im the only one eating like
a complete pig, and I feel completely repulsive.
This has been going on for about two years.
What do you think?

it is possible you are beginning to develop a disorder
in order to counter it we must first solve the root of this problem
have you had bad experiences with food?
and comments or perceived views on your image?
loci of control issues?
or social conformity issues?

[ErikaRae]

When I was younger kids would always tease me,
They'd call me fat and tease me when I ate.
My step dad has made comments about me being
too fat before. Everybody at my school is really skinny,
even the boys, I feel so out of place and uncomfortable.

i think you are development a eating desorder i would say you have some symptons but i am sure would be better if you talk to a psicologist he would be able to help i think this is something you have to do because you are not fat and you are having problems of self-stem from what i can see so would be good to you to talk with somebody that could tell you if this is happening.

Hi ErikaRae, as kika suggested you should surely consult a professional as soon as possible. I found a useful online resource which has whole lot of information on eating disorders (http://www.eatingdisorderclinic.org/treatment-programs.html?utm_source=forum&utm_medium=ru&utm_campaign=treatmentprograms) - signs symptoms & their treatment options. You can even call them up @ 800-714-8354 and talk to their experts about your concerns. It will definitely help you. Good luck!

Your weight is normal and if it hasn't been fluxuating madly it's possible it could just be bad body image. It sounds like you could maybe have developed ednos but with a lot of girls self image being in the toilet this could just be a part of your teenagehood and nothing serious.

And thats where exactly all of it starts though - being called fat, turning paranoid about your body image, unhealthy self conscious and so on

I don't think you are at a serious problem YET and you should prevent it from happening.. I suggest instead of trying to lose your weight in very unhealthy and wrong ways you read up on eating healthy in general - the concept seems alien to pretty much everyone who try it but simply eating a lot less will not necessarily make you lose weight unless you starve yourself to death.

Also you shouldn't let people stomp on your self image and make you think crap about yourself, which I think here is the most important thing, teenagers are stupid and they'll call people anything just to make them feel bad and what they say may not be true and usually isn't.

x.x and if thats you in the avatar you shouldn't worry about anything lol
