| hi im petrified of weight gain too but i weigh 165 and ive always told myself that if i go over 180 ill kill myself but now im prego and have to gain weight so i think that you should weigh a good at least115 and remember even if you gain you can always turn that fat into muscle and if your muscular than your not fat right?? good luck sweetie hang in there ↑ |

| hi, i was in the same position as you six years ago, and i finally just came to the conclusion that hey I only have one life to live and there must be more to life than just trying to look too skinny and thinking about food all the time and stuff. God really helped me to recover and now i weigh 128lb (I'm 5'7'') and feel really strong and am able to run so much better (I am a competetive long distance runner) and enjoy life so much more. I know you want control of your life and controlling food is one of those things, but watch out and don't let it control you! But you have begun the first and most important stage to recovery--realizing and admitting your problem and wanting to do something about it. Good luck. ↑ |

| Be careful. I think you are still sensible enough here (despite how skinny you have managed to get!) to know that this isn't healthy. But I don't know what to tell you to make you stop... I myself have never in my life managed to get this skinny, despite years of trying. I'm the kind of person who starves themselves for three days then binges uncontrollably on the fourth, so I neither enjoy food nor am, actually ever thin. I am currently at the thinnest I have ever been (we are talking average-slim here, by no means lean) and wish I knew how to moderate either bingeing or starving - because one would solve the other. Today I was really good - and then ate an entire pack of cookies while typing this... how do thin people manage??? ↑ |

I have only told one person about it she was annorexic she thinks I am. I will not let mself gain weight I am so scared to that if i gain a pound I almost cry. ↑ |

| I don't think that you should not eat because your afraid to gain wait because gaining weight is actually good for you it's just like for me if my parents have a fight I don't eat and I try to hurt myself in a way not eating is hurting you ↑ |

| please listen to a fellow sufferer, YOU CAN'T CONTROL IT ON YOUR OWN...it is a mental disorder, yet somehow people always think it is a choice...IT IS NOT...GET HELP NOW! you need constant support and love, and though i hate the idea just as much as you do, you need somone to watch you and everything you eat and whenever you exercise...PLEASE! if you don't get help, you can't beat it and then YOU WILL DIE! ↑ |

| Hey! my name is shanae and im an ex-anorexic! I went anorexic all because of a guy I felt like whenever i ate he thought i was gross and ot long after that it became like an addiction and pretty soon i basically stopped eating. It became like an addiction, i knew i was never exactly fat, i did a lot of swimming and had a lot of muscle but i was never a fat girl. After a while people started noticing that i had lost weight and i was noticing it aswell and it started scaring me! I never thought of myself as anorexic.... just a girl that didnt eat! it became like an addiction and although i wanted to eat i couldnt i told myself to keep going and if i could make it that far without eating i could keep going. Luckily i had help and it didnt get serious. I realised that i no longer looked at myself in the mirror and said wow i look good and nobody else did. I realised that eating dosnt look gross it looks healthy. And guys dont go for really skinny people. nex time you want to eat and feel like you cant, go and look in the mirror and say do i look better now than i did before i was anorexic? i dont think you will honestly be able to say you look better! then go down to the local bakery and by yourself a big pastry and go to the supermarket and get a big block of chocolate, invite some friends over and enjoy! food is yum!!! and healthy! good luck hun xxx ↑ |

This is harder than very few people realize. And to top it off, those of us that "know", it's still gonna be different, because we're all different and our illnesses are all unique. But I'd be more than willing to share anything, and I mean ANYTHING I can with you ↑ |

| since you are serious about getting better, and very underweight for your height, maybe your best bet would be a reputable eating disorder hospital where you will be fed meals and have therapy for the anxiety of weigth gain and any other underlying causes of your anorexia. ed units are hard at first but once you let go of the terrifying hold that anorexia has on you, you will feel so much better. i know- i am 19 yrs. old and at 5''7, i weigh 79 pounds. i am most probably going to go into another hospital myself. i have a feeling it is going to work because this time i am serious about recovery. remember, recovery= a feeling of happiness and freedom. though you say you are trying to get better on your own, it is impossible. anorexia is an evil being and takes great satisfaction in completely controlling its' prey in every aspect- mentally and physically. therefore to recover, you need others to get involved. look up to those celebrities wit heating disorders who have gotten help- mary-kate olson, jamie-lynn siegler, scarlett pomers. i have great faith in you. please keep me updated ↑ |

| Just know that God will take care of you. Remember, you have to eat to live. Be good to yourself and take one minute at a time. Ask God to take your irrational feelings and carry you through this difficult time. ↑ |

| You're very skinny so obviously people aren't going to understand your fear of gaining weight because in their perspective you can certainly afford to. However, I know that's it's about yourself and what you feel comfortable with regardless how many times people tell you you are too skinny. I too have a fear of gaining weight. I can't enjoy food because I always imagine it accumulating on my body. All I can say is that ultimately health should be your priority and the weight that you are is unhealthy so I would suggest putting just a little weight on. You'll still be skinny as hell-too skinny even but you'll realize how even with weight gain you are still thin and guys will also find you more attractive if you have a bit more shape so that's a plus. ↑ |
