Is it normal to want to be anorexic

Not the mental disorder, and I'm sorry for anyone who has that.
When I have no appetite it feels great. Last week I was too depressed to eat anything and looking back I wish I could feel like that more often. Sometimes I think about sad/stressful things just to stop feeling hungry. I enjoy going as long as possible without eating and then going for a run or something. I'm not dissatisfied with my body, in fact that last period of not eating put me underweight but just barely so I'm not too worried. I just enjoy challenging myself. IIN?

    You probably already have anorexia or other eating disorder. It's no fun. Please, talk to someone before you fuck your body up.

    I have a close friend who once struggled with anorexia and shows a few hints of it here and there, and this sounds a lot like her. Please do get help, as this isn't healthy.
    I'm also just a tiny bit underweight like you, but it helps to surround myself with my favorite foods.
    If you eat small portions, that's okay. Just snack more often when you can.
    Exercising really only helps if you're eating enough to suffice.
    Be careful.

    To be honest I don't think it's normal. I have some weird abnormality where I'll constantly eat but never get fat. I'm actually anorexic and I hate it. Being slimmer is fine but I don't think you should feel depressed just so that you're not hungry.

    I'd say you are only a click shy of anorexia already. Healthy people don't generally obsess over what they eat. You seem to be doing that.

    An active lifestyle and a high-fat, low-carb diet will reduce your appetite without feeling hungry all the time.
