ok i am anorexic, but i made myself want to recover. so i would tell myself ok, i need to gain weight and stop couting calories and such, but whenever meal time comes, i eat and start subconciously counting calories and my heart starts beating really fast and my hands start to shake. i know i need to gain weight but then when i eat just a little bit more than planned i cry uncontrolably and hate myself and i think i'm gross and unhealthy. i also have a huge fear that i will gain the weight and wont be able to stop gaining, i am going to have this problem all my life arent' i? i feel so sick all the time because of this problem. i just want it all to end, today i think i cried 10 times because thinking about my problem and having to live with it for the rest of my life is depressing. also i wake up really early in the morining and cant seem to fall back to sleep. how do i eat the food without feeling so sad about it after?

just eat normally. being anoerexic is just as gross as being fat.

By accepting yourself at the weight you are meant to be, and realising that you are not your weight and your weight isn't you...your body is just a car you travel around in while you are here. I am too tired to say more right now, but I have had anorexia myself, and if you want some support or help etc, you can email me from my profile page.

Hey...I know from reading your story that this is not a question that I am qualified to answer..It sounds like you might need to buckle down and talk to a professional. Believe me, I know from personal experience that it does not sound appealing, but it sounds like you really want to get better.. Start out by talking to a loved one you can trust about your feelings, then maybe they can help you branch out to a professional who can help you face your thoughts a little more effectively. I hope things get better, I know how it is to fear food... It's a useless fear and I know you can overcome it. Best wishes..

your best bet would probably be to stop by a mental health clinic. I'm not saying that to be mean. I just mean that when someone has an eating disorder they usually benefit from some help from a professional. by all means get help for this. being skinny is no good if you're dead and let's face it that's the end result when you starve yourself.
