In the past 6 months ive been dealing with a non diagnosed eating disorder and during episodes of nausea my anxiety kicks in full blast and i cant control myself, many out of the times i dont throw up but i do feel terrible for 2-3 hours until i am able to sleep but even when awoken i still have the same feelings. I am 15 years of age, currently down to 110.2 pounds and dropping. I dont have anymore safe foods due to my doctor perscribing Reglan and it having a really negative effect on my appetites and my view on food.

Please tell your parents what is going on. You can't fix this yourself. You are only 15 years old and it is important that you get a handle on your eating disorder as soon as possible. If one medicine doesn't work, there are many other ones out there. Please get back to your doctor and tell them what is going on. Best wishes to you.

Hello, So sorry for the anxiety and the physical problems that you have been having. I am glad that you are seeing a physician. Have you been able to be honest with the physician about your eating habits and the way that the medication causes you to feel? As GirlinCalif said, it is really important that you tell your parents exactly what is going on so they can get you the help that you need and so that they can support you. Maybe your guidance counselor at school can help you talk to them if you find it to be difficult to talk to them alone. Hope that helps!

I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...

    I'm horrified!  I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000.  I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter.  I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change.  Now this!  I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000.  I guess I have to pay...
