    I don't get eating disorders. If u formed it by people saying u look skinny or whatever, wouldn't people telling u, u look like a walking dead extra with jandus, fix you? I had a friend in middle school. I always thought she had such a gorgeous body. Thin and lithe like a dancer, with a lil apple bottom. Then come to find out the reason she looks the way she does is because she iwas anorexic and bulimic. I felt soooooo guilty for coveting beauty that was born of such torment. I still feel guilty about it 10+ years later

    Eating disorders probably always are a struggle for the people that have them. I highly suggest that you see a therapist that specialises in treating patients with Eating Disorders.

    Good Luck!

    Another thing to keep in mind that it would be difficult eating anyways if you do not eat a lot. So if you suddenly try to eat more and you dont eat you might get sick.

    I know what this is and I had to study this. If a professional can not help you I am not sure what to tell you. I would say do something to deal with your self esteem. Maybe do something that makes your esteem go up.

    Tell yourself that you are beautiful. Maybe start working out and try keeping a good body a healthy way. Find a hobby that you are good at. When you are good at something it is usually something you can take pride in.

    If you don't have friends do something to try and make friends. I am no expert but I do not think that if you gotten help already that we can do much. I wish you luck and sorry about your issue.

    If you cant get food down drink loads of veg and fruit juice and drink protein, so even if you cant get food down that day, you will stock up the vitamins you need to survive! On top of that always try to get food down anyways, you never know, it might get easier. Also get help from your doctor. Good luck.

    Seek help. Eating disorders can become very serious indeed. Even if the things you try aren't successful, you owe it to yourself to keep on trying. I wish you the best of luck and hope you find a way of dealing with it.
