    recently i have just gotten over an eating disorder, but it still sometimes comes around.. i know im not fat though "/
    im 15 years old i weigh 6 stone, and when i was in year 6 i weighed 3 stone, so i've always been skinny its not just because of my eating disorders. plus i do dancing so that stops me gaining weight. But i was at school and walked past the dinner hall and smelt the food and i thought it smelt good but a voice in my head said, 'no you can't eat that, you're fat.'
    and it really put my self confidence down. my two bestfriends know about it and they get angry if they notice i dont eat, even though they know i havent got it as bad as i used to and it really gets to me. i dont know what to do because i know im not fat and i hate having voices in my head telling me i am because they're so manipulative and make me stop eating.. what can i do?

    hey I know what you mean. I get them too. Its horrid whenever I walk past a reflective surface and see myself theyr like 'your so fat and ugly and no one likes you. they all know theyr prettier than you and they lie just to be nice'. i hate it so then i try to eat as little as possible but when i do eat they say 'your so weak you can't even stop yourself from eating. its your destiny to be fat and ugly and the only way is to not eat'.

    I hate lying to my friends and saying that i'm fine when i'm not or that I am eating when i'm not. my mum gets suspicious aswell. i don't know what to do!!

    I hope you get it sorted out. and when you do please tell me how! coz I've got a constant battle going on in my head and its giving me a headache.

    good luck!! love emz xxx

    emz, i had to go to the school nurse about it, which helped me not be as bad with it as i used to..but i still get it.. and when i do, i normally go off into my own little world and while im in my own world i nibble on things without realising.. i mean hey at least im eating something right? so maybe try that.. and when i have the voices in my head, i normally have an arguement with them lols, so just do that and tell them you are beautiful the way you are - even if you are fat, which i highly doubt you are.. i supose what kept me going was i new i wasnt fat and new i had to fight back before i started to believe i was fat.. because the voices are manipulative! tbh i duno how it works.. just try telling yourself you are beautiful and when you get the voices in your head, sing loud songs in your mind to block them out! lolss. let me know how you get on :)

    love louu xx

    thanks

    yeh i live in my own little world most of the time :) its nice. Sometimes when i have the voices i try and join in with my friends more but i've been off so much this term it hasn't worked so well. its just a constant internal battle which at the mo i'm not really winning. but hopefully when i'm better (ill atm) i will be able to figh harder.

    I'm glad its better for you :)

    love emz xxxx
