Sαмsooмα {ραℒєς†îиîαи ✌ }

when i was young, id say from maybe 7 up until 12 i was very fat and over weight and got teased so so much, then when i was 13 i had an eating disorder but it was minor my friends pull me outta it, like i was obsessed with working out and buring everything i ate (and i didnt even eat much) i would even chew a piece of gum then go on the treadmill and run until i burned those 5 calories

i got sick, i never got VERY skeleton thin cuz it didnt last evry long around 4 months, but i was getting sick all the time and my friends and family were able to get me back to normal

but six months is a long long time, i know what u mean about feeling disgusted when u see food it happens to me when im depressed its like im throwing up by lokin at food and eating, but look dont eat cuz u want to or u feel u are hungry just eat to live. eat enough so u can live and im sure ur thin and gorgeous so dont worry about losing weight u probably dont need it and im sure u look amazing so dnt be hard on urself

effects of anorexia may lead to disease later on in life like osteoporosis and also infertility and it will make u grow more body hair (its ur body's way of heating itself up or keeping warm since u wont have fat to do it) and everything u eat will be stored as fat because ur body will go into starvation mode. ur brain and many vital organs may stop functioning properly, and in MANY cases...prolonged anorexia may lead to death.

this is something u can overcome with support and if u genuinely WANT to do it, i support u and so does everybody here and if u need anything hit me up i know what ur going through okay good luck :)

ok, what does "lately" mean?
Is it just a few days or has this been going on for months?
As Angel said, a few days is no big deal but longer it is.

Ghazal, you are presenting the symptoms of an eating disorder, they are too familiar, I have lived them with a close person and it's not funny for the person or those living with them.

The first thing to do, is to educate yourself as much as you can, there is plenty about it on the net, identify it and UNDERSTAND what you are up against.
Also understand that it needs to be dealt with early on before it takes hold of your whole life.
And most importantly understand that the disorder is the symptoms of an underlying emotional problem and the need for you to feel that you control something at least.

Again like Angel, I offer my support. Please email me, if you want more info or to be put in touch with someone who overcame it (she's a little older than you now)

I agree with Webby, Warrior Angel, and Aussie.
I had a friend who went through this as well (the food part).
Please take care of yourself and see a doctor.
There is no shame in seeing a psychiatrist and getting help. It is not for the eating aspect alone, but the dreams, depression and feeling of death. This is your body and your health and those are the most precious things you can possibly have.

Ghazal...for once I totally agree with Webby ! No need to panic but certainly take it seriously & educate yourself.

You have many friends here who care about you ...feel free to discuss at any time..

habibty !!!!!!!

how long has this been going on ??? we all go through periods where we are sick of food (ask my friend Greta .. she goes without food for 10 days sometimes .. but then she binges and eats like mafgoo3a) ...

the FAT thing is a symptom and i do think you have a kind of eating disorder ... but ... at least you're eating .. forced or not ... you're still eating ...

no need to be alarmed now .. unless this boycotting of food continues until the end of the month ... then you must see a doctor ... !!!

i'll be with you along the way .... don't worry ..!!!!

GlobalMan

Agree with all our friends!

Don't be alarmed but definitely get it checked out; it could really be nothing but why not be on the safe side...Besides, sometimes, parasites can have that same affect on us as well......so it wouldn't hurt to do some analysis..

But you already took the most important step; being that you recognize that you may not be well :-) we're all here for you!!

Take care Habouba

Go see a doctor or something. It's not healthy to be acting like that.

Zoggers

You should consult a doctor and not just any regular doctor i would say an eating disorder treatment center.

Ok, have you lost weight (massive) recently?

if yes, it may be serious, if yes or no you might ask a doctor or someone who has knowledge about these sort of things.

make sure u r not pregnant girl!!!

when my sister get pregnant she kept feeling sick.

virgin guy

Girl, you better see a counselor or physchologist just to be on the safe side. This sounds like it could turn into something serious like anorexia nervosa. Please dont take any chances:(

G Bone

Aldonbonn

u sure u aren't pregnant?

EDIT:
u know once i ate in the street and i ate some bad meat, i got sick and i didn't eat ANYTHING for a 1 week, i just drank lots of juice and nothing happened

so don't worry, u won't die

arpsy

you should try to go to doctor, there are somethings that may you ashame to say even to your best friends and more even to your parents, so please go to a doctor and try to be honest with her or him other wise the problem may not stop but increase and is not just the fact that you lose weight but you know this is the beguining of a several health problems. Please dont let it go if you think that something is going wrong! it is better to do a check up to be sure you are ok before problems beguin.
