No love!.

Anorexia is a disease in which you don't eat as you believe you are fat!.

If you just don't feel like eating and you are young this is pretty normal!.

It's very common for a lot of young people like teenagers to feel like this, I wouldn't worry about it at all!. Your appetite will increase as you grow older, just make sure you try and eat enough calories throughout the day, aim for at least 1000!.

The day you should be worrying is when you start worrying that you're fat and start eating less!. If you are not at this stage then you are fine! Happy days!! :D

If you're not eating much, just because you're not hungry and aren't doing it purposely, no!.!.!.you're not anorexic!. If you know FOR SURE that it's only because you're not hungry There are different stomach conditions that will make your stomach feel sick when you eat!.
See your doctor and just see if you have an acidic stomach, or anything else going on!. No big deal!. Anorexia is a mental, not physical thing!.!.!.at least in the beginning!.
It's okay to be small for your age!. Again, just make sure that you are not eating because you are not hungry!.
Your family is worried because they love you!.

It depends!. Have you always been like this, or is this a change in an established pattern!? How old are you!? If you're still growing, you could develop deficiencies and not grow properly!. You said food makes you feel sick!.!.!.!.does all food do this!? YOu could have a stomach disorder or even ulcers can make you feel sick when you eat!. How do you feel about your appearance can give you insight into whether you have an eating disorder!. If you are losing weight and see no problem with that, you might want to explore the issue!. Either way, getting a check up and discussing concerns with your doctor sounds like a wise step!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeah ask a Doctor its no big deal to tell them that!. there are medications that can make you feel hungry!. I kind of felt like this but much more minor , so i took an acid reducer every morning and i helped made me no feel bad when i ate!. I would try that!. And no not being hungry does not make you anorexic!. Don't beat yourself up about it!. good luck =] Www@Answer-Health@Com

Anorexia is a mental illness!. If you're just not hungry much, you're like me!.

People say the same thing about me!.
I would suggest eating like 6 mini-meals a day,enough to fit in the palm of your hand!. so you get all the nutrition you need and you'll kind of "trick" your body into eating more!.
