Eating Disorder Community - How do you actually feel today?
i haven't got an eating disorder but I do restrict how much fluid goes into my body . I have currently gone 36hrs without anything to drink and someone told me it is an eating disorder but I don't think it is. Can someone tell me if it is an eating disorder thanks !
But why are you doing that?my friend was anorexic and for a while she hadnt drink
I'm not a doctor, so I can't diagnose anything officially, but it's certainly unhealthy. Your body relies on fluids to continue functioning. If this isn't something you can stop, please reach out to a doctor or therapist who can help you through it.
I just feel conflicted and fat. I feel like I'm loosing control, I'm lost. So then I try to control things like my weight, then eventually the purging gets out of control. Then I feel even more ashamed and lost.
Like my teachers are trying to force me to eat. I don't want your cheese or chocolate. Don't try to make me eat it, I'll eat it when I feel less pressured.
I feel quite happy: the sun is shining and even if did not achieved to not count the calories this morning, I've achieved to eat bread instead of "biscottes" for my breakfast. That's a little victory for me :)
SUPER PROUD OF YOU FRENCH!!!!!:D:D:D <3
I feel fat, lazy, horrible, ugly, imperfect. I will never be perfect enough. I had a girl tell me once that I couldn't be anorexic because I wasn't skinny.
I'm so sorry that you're feeling so much pain right now. I know it can be nearly impossible to ignore hurtful words like that from someone, but please try to remember that she does not know what she's talking about or what you're going through. One quote that helps me to remind myself of is 'To anyone who told you you are not good enough, they are no better.' No one has the right to make you feel bad about yourself. Stay strong, and take care of yourself. <3
Thank you (:
I feel like im starting to fall back into anorexia.
I feel the tightness in my pants because I binged.. such a horrible feeling to walk around with all day.
I love having to cut new notches into my belt so my pants fit. But now i don't have too and it bothers me
Fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat fat FAT
I feel really gross. I haven't eaten much in the past five days and if I do I just throw it up. So I'm afraid to eat for that reason. I wish I didn't feel this way about myself but I do. This is the worst it's been because I've only had 3 drinks in the matter of five days and I know that's not healthy cause I could have kidney failure and get sent to the hospital....I'm just scared and trying to get in control.
I'm sorry you're struggling so much right now; it sounds like you're scared, and understandably so. I think reaching out here took a lot of strength, though, and that same strength can help you through this. There are a lot of fantastic listeners on this site, including a bunch who have experience with eating disorders and might be able to help support you, if you reach out. In the meantime, it sounds like you know the dangers of what you're doing, particularly not drinking water...maybe coming up with a list of reasons why water is important and why it won't hurt you to have some would help. Take care and stay safe. <3
