I think I have an eating disorder but I dont know need help ?

I have been starving my self for about 10 months , recently been trying to eat again but didn’t work , I have a lot of symptoms like tired , dizziness, feeling faint , feeling cold , missing my period for 2 months right now , exercising a lot and mood changes . I take medicine to deal with the stomach pain , about 3 a day to help cope throughout the day , I also have low blood pressure which cause me to faint . I think I’ve been in denial of my starvation because at first I was convinced I was starving myself then things started happening to me and searched them up and said symptoms of an eating disorder but I didn’t want to believe it and im still kind of in denial but I need to know for sure . I’ve been loosing weight quite quickly that a lot of people first notice that about me every time they see me but I still think I’m fat no matter what they say .So can someone please help me ?

you definitely need to tell someone you trust about how you’re feeling. sit down with your mum/dad/guardian or a friend and explain to them how you feel. it might sound daunting, but will be worth it.also you should certainly get help from a therapist/counsellor. I don’t know which country you live in, but you should look online for a mental health or eating disorder helpline that you can call to talk to someone about how you feel.

hey this sounds like you definitely have an eating disorder. you might not think that you are sick, but you definitely are. Imagine if one of your friends told you that they had the symptoms that you’ve got - you would be v worried about them, and would know that they are extremely concerning symptoms.you need to see a doctor as soon as possible.starting recovery might sound terrifying, but I promise that it will be worth it. i am here for you and want to support you all the way. xoxoxo
