Question : How to tell someone that you’ve been struggling with anorexia?
I have been E.D.N.O.S., which is basically anorexia (not going to go into detail; look it up) for almost 7 years, my body has changed a lot since I’d first started almost seven years ago. Either people never cared to notice, or didn’t want to notice.. that I never ate. But I’m ready to get help. I can’t afford a therapist or treatment; could anyone recommend any type help? And if you know of anything free/ low cost that’d be great.

- Lost 45 pounds, but managed to gain most of it back; lost 3 teeth, 2 rotted out and one had to be pulled because of bulimia too.

I am not below weight, and if anything a healthy weight. At this point, will doctors of facilities refuse treatment because I am not classified at underweight or malnourished?

Not sure about where you live but around here there are therapists who charge by a scale. If you don’t make enough money to be charged they won’t charge but have to see you. I hope you decide to get some help. If you have someone close to you that you can tell, I would. My aunt was anorexic and died at an early age of 47. I was too young to know that she had a problem but now looking back I can see there was one. I guess the rest of the family was in denial.

If you tell someone close to you they shouldn’t be judgemental, if they are don’t worry about them. Find a support group or someone else to help you through.

Well, I live in the south so can’t recommend anywhere. Look in the phone book or use the net to find a place. Just type in mental health facilities and your city. It will bring some places up.
