ED??
I used to not eat much at all starting about 5 years ago. I would only eat like one small meal a day and after about 2 years of that, I lost my cycle, and I have only had two periods since then. now I am better (but I still don't completely have my cycle back). I just still can not eat when other people are not eating. I don't know if that's normal or not. and i wonder if it's normal to feel guilty if I'm just sitting around not exercising or burning calories. is this an extremely mild version of an eating disorder or just a weird relationship with food/exercise?

Hi! I've read your post and I wonder if you are trying to lose weight or just do not want to eat. If you suddenly feel sick to eat, it might be some warning from your body. There are indeed some people who eat few, but they eat regularly and their diet will not affect their health. From your description, I know that your eating habit has already affected your cycle. This is kind of abnormal. And you said that you could not eat while no one was eating. It may be because of stress or shame? I think you should go to see the doctor and regulate your eating habit. Wish you have good luck!

Hey! So, yeah, it was to lose weight. Originally, it started because I didn't have much of an appetite, but then I started checking my weight and being really mad at myself if it went up. I also saw the doctor over a year ago, and it's taking them forever to figure out what the issue is. I have another appointment soon so hopefully, things should get better. thanks for your concern :)
