Answers:
Oh my gosh! I honestly thought I was alone on this!. A bunch of bad things happened to me (my friend raped me)!. I've thrown up or I just don't eat because I know I'll end up throwing it up!. This has gone on for a few months!. I talked to my counselor at school just a few days ago and she did not say that I had a eating disorder at all, she was there for me and actually really helped me!. I honestly think you should tell her!. But you do whats best for you!. You might have an ulcer!. People that throw up get them easily!. I would first go and talk to your counselor and then she or he can probably tell you what you should do!. I told my parents about how I throw up and they didn't get mad or anything!. Don't be afraid of what your parents think because they will love you no matter what!. My mom or dad didn't even get upset!.
I really hoped this helped!
If you ever need to talk you can email me!. I'm 15 and turning 16 in August!. I think it would be nice to talk to someone my age about this!.
Best of luck!

I think it's funny that you are more worried about telling your counselor about this problem than the actual problem itself!.

If you trust your counselor and you believe she is there to help you and that she is competent, then why keep this from her!? Let her do her job!. The most important part of her job is getting to know all about you!. How are you sure that you don't have an eating disorder anyway!? No one consciously decides that!. Or you say it may be an ulcer!? Well an ulcer, my dear, is no laughing matter either!.

If she does, what you think she will do, and tell you you have a disorder, then tell her what you think!. Have a conversation about it!. Tell her why you disagree!. Maybe she won't jump to that conclusion, and if she does, maybe she can tell you something insightful or helpful that you haven't considered yet!.

Tell her, or don't!. But I'd tell someone!. Throwing up constantly is not natural!.

Take care!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
