eating disorder education

Hi, Im 15, weigh 47kg (103 pounds) and am about 163cm. I have a athletic body, and im worried that i might be getting a eating disorder. My mum says its just how im built, and i'll get better. First of all, im scared to gain weight, and go over 50kg. I know im growing, but i dont wont to gain weight. I dont eat breakfast, sometimes lunch, and mabey dinner. I weigh myself, and if i think im getting close to 50kg, i wont eat, and might do some exercise.

I've had an eating disorder for about 5 years. Almost 3 years ago I went inpatient for help. Now I'm within 2 lbs of when I was admitted the first time and I don't know how to ask for help or if I even should ask for help. Asking for help would mean I would have to skip this semester of college and I really don't wanna do that. But if I don't ask for help I'm not sure I'd stay medically stable through May and then I might have to medically withdraw due to Anorexia.

Also, do I display any symptoms of an endocrine disorder? This has been going on for two months and no one is any closer to identifying the problem. Please, can you help me?

I am often saddened by the confusion regarding different diagnosis that exist. Sensory Integration disorder is a diagnosis that can be all by itself. OR, it can be a second diagnosis on top of something like Aspergers, autism, or add/adhd. The symptoms of sensory are separate from those diagnosis and it is unfortunate the lack of education regarding this. I believe it causes kids to not receive the targeted help that will be of most benefit to them in the long run.

can somebody explain special education? My grandson has ADHD, mild depressive disorder, SID and emotional problems. He was removed at age 3 from his parents due to neglect by the parents who were heroin addicts. At 15 months he tested positive for being exposed to opium, benzo.... basically everything except marijuana through a hair folicle test. The mother was using drugs and breast feeding.

There is an excellent website available. Google psych education, Dr. Phelps.

They are about more than just food. Whatever was going on underneath that was fueling your eating disorder is still there. You might want to consider some support in the form of counseling from a therapist experienced with eating disorders. OA is also a good source of support and learning and working the steps with a sponsor. It's hard to do this alone.

Being fearful of gaining weight and continually working to keep your weight at an unnatural low is indeed the sign you may have an eating disorder. Nobody can diagnose you online but I assume you are posting because you suspect that is what is going on. But you are ahead of the game because you recognize it is not healthy! I encourage you to get some help. It may not be something you can just figure your way out of.

You definitely have an eating disorder. There is something called non specific, where you niether fit exactly into a catergory.Purging is not good for you ,EVER. NO matter how often , its so bad for your body and teeth. I have suffered from bulimia and I know its a struggle. MY advice is to not restrict yoursefl to 300 cal a day or anything under1200-1500. Your body will go into starvation mode and retain more water and food and in the long run it will make you fatter and unhealthy.

Is anyone familiar with binge eating disorder? I have been struggling with what I believe is binge eating disorder. It has gotten out of control and I am at a loss as to how to stop it.

When I feel happy I can eat a lot of food and a big plate (haha) but when I am sad or depressed I am not eating and starving.. and I loose an appetite. do u think it can be some kind of eating disorder? Also I cant gain weight its always around 50kg.

Dear Tessy2, I would contact your insurance company directly and ask for the eating disorder treatment programs on their panel. You could then call each of their contracted facilities. If interested in any of the programs, have the treatment program intake department run an insurance verification to determine your financial responsibility.

This is a website where people who think they may have an eating disorder come to get help. Vomiting after eating because you feel you are fat or want to lose weight is a very bad idea. It leads to all sorts of medical problems and leads to the development of an eating disorder which means your whole life can become obsessed with bingeing and purging (vomiting) and you are miserable. Just ask anyone on this website who's been there. Like me.
