helping cure anorexia and depression?
Question : helping cure anorexia and depression?
I’ve had depression for a while, I’ve learned to cope with it really well too! I never wanted to take depression pills because I was informed they make you emotionless, basically. I did have some days that where worse then others, but I dealt with it. Now the problem is, I just developed anorexia less then a year ago. I am a guy, and 16, and have lost a ton of weight!! The thing is, I really can’t tell if I’m fat or thin. When I see myself in the mirror, I see a fat person, but when I look at pictures, I see someone a lot thinner. The problem though is, the mirror image automatically makes me worry about my weight. I really never wanted to deal with anorexia, but I can’t help it. I really wished it would go away, but at the same time I want to keep it. I’ve been on soooo many pro-ana websites with their “thinspiration,” and have only become more upsessed. I even have my one guy role model basically. I’ve become sooo mest up, but I can’t get over it. I hate psychologists, however, as I’ve been to too many that really annoyed me. I want to get better, but am afraid to. any tips on trying to recover?
I have been trying to eat more, but it’s not as easy it may sound. I really regret it and hate myself after. If I eat anything with more then a couple hundred calories, I have to exercise.

I was an Anorexic Depressant at 13, I’m now 29 and have really overcome it all. First of all your not fat your very unhealthy if your that thin. Don’t listen to pro-ana websites I’m against them because I was an Anorexic and I would never ever do that again. Although mine was a chemical imbalance in my brain. If you truly want the help you need to see a doctor. You need to eat lots of protein to gain back the weight you lost. Unless you want to end up like me with major joint and muscle problems, teeth decay from being sick and not eating. I wish I could take back the damage I did to my body but I can’t that is why my mission is to save those that I can from doing what I did so many years ago. If you want to talk about it I’m here. But seriously you need a nutrionist to talk to about getting back on a weight gaining diet.
