I think I'm anorexic?!


Question: I think I'm anorexic?
for the past year, i've been eating about 600-800 calories a day and going to the gym and burning off 300-400. although i do have slip-up days where i eat somewhere between 3000-4000, but i've never purged. i lost a lot of weight, 22 lbs. i'm 90 lbs and 5'0 now.

i want to lose more and be thinner, but at the same time i DON'T because i know it's unhealthy. it's a constant debate with myself. i'm scared i'm going to gain it all back if i start eating "healthy". am i anorexic? am i seriously hurting my body? i'm only 15. i got my period when i was 11 and i had it very regularly for since then, but now it's stopped - i haven't had it since last august.

how harmful EXACTLY is anorexia?

let me tell you how harmful anorexica is
i decided to loose weight in 7th grade
i lost almost all my hair
all my friends
and my personality
when i recovered i found release in sports and became really good....
but as i was an anorexic this was very hard
so when i went through a growthspurt + my sports i wasn't sure if i should eat more...and i wasn't hungry
so I ate like a normal person (2000-2500 calories) but i should have been eating 3000.
i lost weight and got my sports yanked
now i'm gaining back but my doctor wants me to be even fatter than i was before
i am going crazy stuck in my room wondering what would have happened if i got the help i needed earlier on
i am depressed an miserable
i am only happy when i exersize, and as this is limited, so am i.

DON'T do this to yourself
please don't
you'll regret it for the rest of your life
try to up the calories to ATLEAST 1500 but if this is too much for you then go see a doctor
rather see them when your healthy then when they have to cart you off to a hospital

your already 10 pounds underweight
please stop
and good luck

you should really see a doctor.

You are definitely anorexic. Anorexia can kill you. Have you ever heard of the Holocaust? They were all forced anorexics. Throws your entire body chemistry off and slows the metabolism. Eat more. Try to gain weight. You need to Gain weight.
