Avatar m tn Often eating disorders can revolve around control, fear, and self-loathing, which after sexual abuse can be triggered in a person. But trully, there is no 1 proven cause for bulimia, there are only theories and similarities between bulimics, but cases can be different for each person.
Avatar f tn I've always had self esteem issues and I dont even want to know how much weight I've put on. This is my third baby so I havent cared that much abiut my belly only cuz I'm going ti work hard after my baby is born to get in shape. Dont worry bout your weight now ladies it will inly stress you out. As long as your eating healthy and exercising everything should work out fine.
Avatar f tn I've been horribly depressed with no self esteem.. I've always struggled with my weight and now that I'm pregnant I'm eating a lot better and been active but i feel like i just look fatter than before, not pregnant. I feel ashamed to go out in public, especially with my boyfriend because I'm thinking that people are making fun of him for being with a fat girl... I'm afraid that he's not going to want to stay with us and going to leave us...

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.
Avatar f tn also, i have a low self esteem from some 'friends' calling me anorexic, because of a photo you can see my ribs in.
4541252 tn?1388919237 From what you write it does sound like you are struggling with body image issues connected with self-esteem. And attempting purging behavior to rid weight and perhaps get rid of negative feelings. And also looking external to the media and magazines to define your beauty inside and out. These are common signs of an eating disorder.
Avatar f tn t taken any belly pics and I run from the camera. I am so happy about my baby Girl but I am struggling with self esteem issues. I just feel gross. So don't feel alone. I definitely don't feel like I am glowing!
Avatar f tn I think you need to talk to your parents again and tell them flat out what the true problem is. A therapist, or facility, can absolutely help you get out of this vicious cycle. A healthy lifestyle starts within yourself first and the way you see your self-image. You need to find the beauty in your own body before you can ask your body to shape itself further. The irony behind eating disorders and losing weight is that you actually aren't losing any fat mass by way of these disorders.
10591101 tn?1411286183 I am 30 weeks pregnant and I've have been having such a low self-esteem. My partner doesn't seem to see that things that he says make me feel worse.

Avatar f tn My 10 year old son is coming home from school and telling me everyone hates him - everyone makes fun of him - school is nothing but a constant torture for him. He says they make fun of everything - how big he is (because he's much taller than average and bigger than them - he has big hands and feet - he stands out) - they make fun of what he eats, the things he says, how big he is, he says they all think he is stupid.
Avatar n tn I'm just like that. With my first son I was 145 when I got pregnant and when I gave birth I weighed 205. It took me 2 years to loose it all. It helped a lot when I started working. The weight just started to fall off. I finally got back to my 145 a few months ago and now I'm 14 weeks and 5 days pregnant and have already gained 5 pounds so I'm 150. I've always had bad self esteem. I've never been able to get under 145. I've always felt. Insecure and nasty the way I look.
5805034 tn?1403865293 Involve yourself in some voluntary work – thinking about helping others can take the focus off self introversion and self obsessiveness and can help with self esteem. When you learn to respect and value yourself you can come to enjoy your own company and eventually others will too. Taking care with your diet and your physical health can also improve your self esteem.
Avatar m tn well i always tell my son how "sexy" he is. Tell your child what a great job he/she is doing for something as simple as putting a dish in the sink.
