Eating disorder help?!?😔😔

Question

I kind of think I am anorexic. I am 5'7 and weigh 127. Every time I look in the mirror, all I can think about how fat I am. I have stopped eating, and all I do is compare myself to other people. I always wear a sweatshirt and pants to hide my body. I just feel like I might be anorexic, because I have started worrying about my weight ALL the time. I just would like some opinions about this, and I was also wondering if I am overweight?

Answer

Well for starters you're beautiful.  Are you overweight?  Absolutely not. Everyone carries weight differently due to their body shape. If this continues to be a problem for you, please seek professional help before you harm yourself.

Answer

Maybe it's worth talking to your parents about seeing a doctor for body dysmorphic disorder? It's a genuine mental illness which isn't always paired with an eating disorder but it's when you obsess over some part of your appearance more than other people and can be treated. Definitely talk to someone about it though before it gets worse.

Looking back at when I was younger and super obsessed with my weight and appearance I just wish someone had told me that if I treated my body right and focused on a healthy lifestyle then I would love myself. It took me years to start treating my body right and respecting it by eating the right foods, getting the right amount of sleep and exercising a healthy amount. If it's something you'd be prepared to do I'd recommend looking up Essena O'Neil and Izzy Davis on YouTube who got me started with learning to love and respect my body through the foods I ate, my only regret it not doing it earlier.

Answer

I'd look into getting counseling before your problem gets any worse.

Answer

You are not over weight by any means!! I'm 5"7 and I weigh 160! And not eatting isn't good honey, because when you do eat your body will go into survival mode and store that fat that it has been deprived of and cause you to gain weight..
