Am I Aneroxia???????????????????!


Question: Am I Aneroxia???????????????????
There has been alot of stress in my life for the past few months. Moving, stuff that I am not happy about it. Totally irrevelant but whatev

I have all of a sudden become obbessed with losing weight and not gaining any! I am told that I am not fat. I am 5'9, bone structure is small, and weigh 130 to 135. I do not look fat but I feel fat.
I have really started cutting back on what I eat. Sometimes skipping both breakfast and lunch and eating just a little for dinner. If I do eat breakfast its like just an apple or a handful of raisins, I rarely eat lunch.
The thing is now I am becoming concerned that I am turning aneroxia.... I just wanna lose weight...

I know this sounds really lame but any help would be greatly appreciated!

no you are a person



Firstly, check out what anorexia is:
http://www.med-street.com/diseases/anorexia/

Losing weight should not be an obsession. Skipping breakfast and lunch is very unhealthy! If you should skip anything, it should be dinner since not a lot of energy is required after dinner time.

ps. Its called anorexic.



first of all if the first part was irrelevant than why the f did you say it? second, its anorexia not aneroxia. third, you cant be a disease. anorexia is a disease. and fourth, this is the dumbest question i have read all day. congratulations.



I think you mean Anorexic...



I think you're subconsciously aware that you may be developing anorexia. The first part of what you wrote is NOT irrelevant at all, it just seems like you are trying to find reasons why you may have resorted to an eating disorder as a coping mechanism - because that it what they always are, just a way to deal with feeling of stress, unhappiness etc.

It definitely sounds like you could be developing anorexia from the behaviours you have described. And you may have typed it incorrectly, but the name for the disease is anorexia and it's sufferers are referred to as being anorexic.

Anorexia is a serious, life-threatening mental illness which can and will damage your life in ways you can't even imagine. But this won't happen if you get help early enough. Talk to a parent, friend or someone you trust about your worries and get them to help you make a doctors appointment so you will definitely go to it. The sooner you get help and start to recover, the better it will be for you. Don't let it have any more control over your life than it already does. You will feel so much happier and more confident if you get some help and can talk to someone.

Well done for admitting you have a problem and good luck, take care!
