Lately going to school has been terrible!.

Answers:
You have some form of anxiety disorder, I recognize that, my daughter has OCD and it's an anxiety disorder (I don't think you have it) but anxiety can be really bad!. You know these things are sometimes imbalances we can't help in our brains-sometimes we do need medication and therapy to get over it!. You're right eating disorders don't just go away-but you can survive it, I did, I was anorexic as a teen, my kidneys were shutting down on me and the doctor cared enough about me to tell me that he just lost a patient to anorexia and he didn't want to see me die!. Although, I tried and worked it out myself-I couldn't see myself as normal until (at the time of anorexia starting 15, fighting it through high school), I finally saw myself in the mirror at 21 after having my first child-I saw myself as not fat-I was surprised!. I wish I would have went after some therapy back then, My daughter is getting so much better in therapy and the meds they prescribed (but of course, she wants to get better)!. Anorexia was a way to control my life- I was in a situation in my life where I couldn't control the destiny or anything around me and this was my way of dealing!. Just like you have a hard time in school!. Believe me, if you want to get better you can, you just have to believe that there are solutions out there-but as you know it takes time!. Just to let you know my daughter has only been in therapy since June and medicated for 2 months and our lives are vastly improving, I found out too, that girls with OCD can develop these eating disorder-if the OCD is not treated!. So basically there are always underlying issues to all things!. I believe like you, I had an anxiety disorder and still do!. I'm watching my kid get so healthy and I'm realizing mom still needs help!. Its funny, my daughters therapist and doctor both tell me to go get myself some help-I'll be going next month!. So it's never to late-you can get better and you can survive High School and move on to better things and brighter future!. Go get help so you don't suffer any longer!. good luck kid!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You need to see a psychiatrist!. I suffer from anxiety and panic attacks!. I went to see one, and he has got me on some awesome meds which has helped me tremendously!. Prozac and Klonopin!. I am almost off the Klonopin because the Prozac is working so well!.

Here's what you do!. Try to find a way to make school a happy thing!.
Maybe make some nice friends or get a boyfriend or something!.
Another thing to do is think, what made you feel that way in 1st and 2nd grade!? What made you stop!? Brainstorm these questions on a piece of paper and try each one!. Maybe you'll "learn to cope" again!.

Go to bed very early, at around eight so you do not binge!.
Instead of eating, do homework or exercise!.
If you binge, eat mushrooms, carrots or broccoli because there are very little calories!.

You can't stop this alone, you need help and it is out there!. I went through so much of the same type of thing!. Going to school was a nightmare!. Now, people are much more educated about anxiety and eating disorders!. Please go to your parents, they should already be aware of the problem if you are binging and purging!. That will take a toll on your health as well as your school work!. This is a very treatable disorder, but you must seek help!. If your parents aren't available, go to your school counselor or a trusted teacher whatever!. You need to see a doctor asap!. You can get better, I'm so sorry you are going through this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
