I have some questions
So ive been struggling I could with this for awhile and I dont really know if its a developing eating disorder or maybe I'm over thinking? I'm 99% sure im not anorexic, I cant control myself that well. I feel guilty even posting here or considering if I have an eating disorder because I feel like im faking it and that someone will be mad at me for this. Whenever I'm with people I never want to eat, I'm really embarrassed to eat even a little bit infront of someone. I feel so fat all the time and i just really despise myself. Whenever I eat something I feel suuuper guilty and if im alone I usually purge it. I try not to but I end up pacing and hating myself I til im on the verge of tears and cant take it anymore. I know if I'm really wondering this I should probably ask a professional but my mom doesnt believe in therapists and I'm scared to tell her because when I told her about my self harm she thought I was just attention seeking. Does it sound like I need help?

I would not feel guilty for reaching out for help... I think that it is a true sign of maturity and self-love to want to fix a situation you dont feel comfortable in.
I dont really know if anyone here can say if you need help or not... How do YOU feel about what you are going through ? Is this something you think you can figure out on your own, or do you think a little extra help might be necessary?
I have read that it can often be hard to objectively view our own problem, since there is usually an abundance of charged emotions tied up in everything. What advice would you give a friend going through this ?
