hello!
this past week ive been thinking of my body as fat and ugly, although i have been called super skinny. I weigh about 120 and am 5 feet 6 inches. whenever someone gives me a compliment i think they just say that to make me eat and get fat. The other day i fasted all day and woke up shaking in the morning, my mother made me eat a bowl of oatmeal...that was all i ate that day. I am scared about where this could lead but i am i love with doing it... do i need help? i just started ↓

Yes you need help. Girl Im a boy, but Im against the media image of women, they potray silion skeletons.....and yea your deffinitly not fat. I can tell u one thing...what's life if u allways look at the way you look, your stuck in the physical world. Self actualize yourself, u are a beatiful unique person who has a personalitty. You make your self the person you want to be....and skinny like that and starving yourself isn't making yourself who you want to be......your killing your self. Your body needs food...and when u deny it food u can't function right. And if u do this, u will automtically keep doing it even when you are a skeleton then you will die.
Look please, and Im saying this in a all truth on the wholy bible, your not fat!!! Your an individual. Seek help please, seek help...u can't do this to yourself. ↑ |

| Kayla you should tell ur parents. Im going to be blunt, what would freak your parents out more; knowing u came to them w/ a problem and want help, or; Get a call or finding you in your room dead from starvation. Tell you parents, or go to any health clinick. Your in my thoughts, I hope everything go's well! Please don't do this to yourself. ↑ |

| Hi Kayla Im so glad and happy, you seem to be getting ready to take a move and make anerxia a phase and not something that took over your life :) If you don't want to tell your parents...which I'd strongly advice you to do. But you should get counsling...tell a close teacher, a school teacher. If not go and tell the hospital..u need action now Kayla though...not to scare you but your life is on the line! So seek help as soon as you can. Don't be afraid...do it...do it Kayla. You can over come this...I promise you once you get the help your going to be so much happier. ↑ |

| O no!! thats so sad, i really hope nothing like that happens to anyone i know OR myself. that really scares me! i wish you best of luck with her! maybe you could tell someone for her cus you wouldnt really be narking on her, you would be saving her life and she would thank you after she got over it... Best of luck! ↑ |

We are all strangers on this board so she is talking to strangers! Folks that are trying to send her to a couseler or Dr are saying that they can not help her That she should talk to someone who can. When you have a broken bone you go to the drs so when you are bulimic & cutting you need to get professional help. Even a school counseler might be able to direct you to help.
Even if we knw what someone feels like does not make us qualified to help!!!!!
This is not a game my daughter died from this illness last week she would not get the help she needed and talked to people that are not Drs. and it killed her.
Thanks for nothing Stop.
If they call a hot line people know how to help and how they feel.

Hello
Heres a link to a great movie to try to stop anerxia, it was done in a high school art class, but the essence of it is real and changed my views on the media.
