I know you get support from advertisers and I totally understand that I will see advertisements on the forums. I have even clicked on a few of the advertisements to check out their message. However, I have not checked on any ads recently as I am having a difficult time dealing with the newer "moving" ads.

Avatar f tn I believe that I may be on my way to an eating disorder. I am 34 years old, 5'3" and I weigh 107. I am very petite and always have been. I haven't truely ever worked out, I've just been very very lucky. Even after having two kids, I lost all the weight without doing much. From as far back as I can remember I have always had problems eating if I was overly stressed or emotional about something. During those times, I will not eat.

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.
Avatar f tn 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.
1564404 tn?1295154236 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.
Avatar f tn 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. I have gained a horrible amount of weight and am miserable. I just want to regain control and able to cope in a healthy way...
Avatar n tn 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.
1202981 tn?1265620378 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.
Avatar f tn My favorite things to snack on are pretzels with hummus, grapes, popcorn, pineapple chunks, deviled eggs, and then chicken noodle soup is always nice. (You can even get can pineapple and put it in the freezer for an hour or so.. frozen pineapple is delicious!) tuna with crackers, etc.. Do you cook? You should look on pinterest for healthy food/snack ideas. I dealt with bulimia 7years ago and always hated the shame that came with it.. I feel for you and pray you get control of it. For me..
Avatar f tn Let me just list a number of signs that make a person susceptible to an eating disorder or disordered eating (some of the following symptoms to a lessor degree and not as debilitating). They are as follows: weight loss from an illness; some kind of loss; depression, anxiety, abuse, poor body image, skipping meals; protecting one’s eating disorder behaviors (i.e.
770635 tn?1237335879 I think it could be related to an eating disorder called pica, which is a compulsion to eat non-food items, such as dirt, chalk, paint chips, etc. The disorder is generally associated with a nutrient deficiency, which results in cravings for non-food items. I haven't heard too much about people's struggles with this particular eating disorders, so I am not sure how long it typically lasts, or exactly how it is treated. Sorry, I know that isn't much help.
Avatar m tn s Anonymous where you will get support from people with all forms of eating disorders. I have 16 years recovery from my eating disorder so it is possible to recover. Part of recovery is learning that it isn't as much about food and weight but the feelings beneath those things. Good luck to you on getting the help you need.
