Ok well i have always been an avid eater, eating more then most of my family, and more then my mom and sister combined. I could eat two days worth of party food in one.

Then when my depression hit really bad i started eating normally.

Now i've found out that i'm not really eating anything anymore and i dnt feel like eating either but i know this is wrong it wasnt triggered by anything though as far as i know.

Im now down to 91 pounds or 41 kg and im 5 foot 5. i got a real wake up call today when my friend told me at break she was worried bout me because she saw me yesterday, im very active and when i stopped eating i lost the weight very quickly. All i can say is im so happy bout my huge baggy school uniform so i can hide it from my parents and the bitches at school.

I want to start eating again i really do my weight is dangerous with my low blood pressure and my feinting but i cant really help liking how good i look in the mirror lately.

So really is there even a problem here? Do i need to gain weight

Yes there is a problem, you are really underweight with a BMI of about 15.2 or so. You don't need to gain weight so long as you don't drop anymore but I'd recommend trying to get your BMI to at least 17. Your teachers will be on the lookout for signs of anorexia or kids being underweight, they all get shown how to spot it early on in a teaching course and baggy clothes don't help. It's probable that they already think your weight is a cause for concern so at the very least stop loosing weight to keep them off your back.
