Not sure if it's an ED

Hi! I don't really know if I have an eating disorder. I don't hate food or feel any way towards it but over the last week I've stopped eating well. I would eat a few bites of food a day and this doesn't have anything to do with body image but the fact that I just wasn't hungry. I wouldn't get hungry easily so I just would skip meals. But then I started noticing that if I skipped meals my stomach would get flatter. So then it became a win-win situation. I wasn't hungry so I didn't eat and if I didn't eat I would get skinny. I don't know what this is? :)

I’m not able to diagnose anything but it seems to me you either have one or are on the verge of it. I highly recommend talking to your doctor and maybe try to get an appointment with a therapist l. It’s ok not to be hungry, but that doesn’t mean you should skip meals. It’s worrying that you compared becoming thinner to not eating more. My sister went through the same thing and has been diagnosed with and ED. Overall, just to be safe I recommend having a conversation with your doctor. Try to have a conversation with someone who supports you as well. I hope you’re doing well! Have a nice day! ♥️
