Please help me with Anorexia?!


Question: Please help me with Anorexia!?
I HAD anorexia about 2 - 3 months ago and Im all better now!. But im not sure of tis effect!. I had it for about 6 months!.!.!.

Will it effect my growht!? If so will it make me grow slower or reduce the height I could have been!?

Also i think it has had an effect on my metabolism, as I cant eat as much as I used to without gaining any weight!. Could this be possible!? If so, will it go back to normal or not!?

My mum is 4'11 and a bit, my dad is 5'6!. Im 14 years old and 4'11!. How tall do you think ill grow!?

I had my period over a year ago and it stopped before I even got anorexia, and it still hasn't returned!. When it begins again, will i grow!? If so, what can I eat to encourage my period!?

Please help!. Thankyou <3Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
First of all if its true ana you are in recovery!. Secondly if you got used to eating nothing a little bit you would think as you are eating a lot!. Im glad that you got help for it right away!. Once you reach your normal weight, what your body wants to be at and gain back your nutrition your body will probably start acting normal but until then you need to be patient!. This doesn't happen over night probably just like you didn't get ana over night!. Starving does slow a metabolism down and that's why some people say eat small meals several times a day in order to get your metabolism up not starve yourself because it only slows it down and when your body gets used to you putting in the right amount of calories it your metabolism will work a bit faster!. Your body needs the time to recuperate from what it went through!. I haven't a clue on how tall you will be or anything like that!. It sounds like you started to restrict before you turned ana as most people do do this and when you started to restrict than you lost too much weight and that's why you lost your period but Im sure it will return when you are healthy!.
Best of luck to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

being over or underweight can cause your periods to be irregular or stop them completely!.
get back to a healthy weight, and if they still don't return you should seek medical help!.

and to the retard that shouted "EAT!", if you had actually read the details you'd know that she is no longer suffering from it!. it's ignorant idiots like you that piss me the **** off!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Growing is from what you intake!.
You intake too much fatty foods you grow sideways!.

During anorexia you would have missed out on the calcium and nutrients etc essential for your growth!. It could have and probably did affect your growth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com




EAT !Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm so glad you have overcome the disorder! :) To begin with I think you should just continue eating healthily and let your body do the work!. If you grow more, you grow more!. I am hazarding a educated guess that, giving it some time, your body will go back to what it had been!. A friend didn;t have her period for three years (she was anorexic for a long period of time) but it can back eventually!. Just don't stress out about this stuff, and if you are so worried about it consult your GP- they are going to have more information than anyone you can ask on here as they can see you in person and discuss your diet fully!.
