so a few months ago i went tohrough somethings with a friend where she stopped eating and i got really mad beucase she is allready skinny and i didnt want her o hurt herself.
well I have been sick for the past week or two with the flu and now im better but i lost weight and i love it. When i eat now i just feel sick about myself. I just want to be skinny because im not.
I dont know what to do because when I eat I want to throw up even thought I dont but i would rather just not eat at all.

I'm glad you are reaching out for support, that's something to be really proud of!! Has anything significant (other than being sick) been going on in your life lately? Any big stressors you can think of? A lot of eating issues seem to pop up as an alternative way to cope with something someone can't quite get a grip on and manage to their satisfaction...

I hope you find DS helpful!

You are playing a dangerous game. It will cost you your happiness, health and eventually your life. So while you are still in the beginning stages please seek help from a therapist.

I really dont want to have to goto a therapist.
But I broke up with an ex awhile ago and he always called me fat but my life has been "normal" i started college.
Everytime I eat something I feel guilty.
