Am I becoming Anorexic?
I have not been able to eat a full meal for at least 5 months. It started out as stress from school which evolved into me not being to eat at all. I lost about 10lbs in 2 weeks, but the doctors could not find anything wrong with me. I do not weigh much so that was extreme. Since then I have not been able to eat well at all and have been continually losing weight, my desire to eat, and will to live. Everyone has been telling me it's in my head. What do I do?

Anorexia is more the purposeful restriction of eating commonly to lose weight. You could have another eating/feeding disorder or just immense stress that makes you lose your apetite. But generally anorexia is when the victim doesn't allow themselves to eat, has a fear of eating or gainig weight and is controlled by their appearance/weight. You have the issue of not feeling like eating - this could even be a physical problem that's triggering the loss of apetite. Its best to consult a doctor.
Midnightangel is right. You don't seem to be purposefully restricting. Could you have anxiety and/or depression that is causing you to lose interest in food?
