Is this an eating disorder?
Hi,
I'm 13 and I eat very little. I eat about one meal a day, if you can even call a roll a meal. I don't do it that extravagantly. I'm just not hungry. The only thing I eat is sweets. They taste better to me. Not that, it's just that the food doesn't taste good… it's just different. I can't describe it. I currently weigh 49 kg and am about 1.55 m (that's just an estimate since I haven't measured myself).
I also have a bit of an obsession with staying thin. It's not strong. Just very, very weak. I want to weigh a little less. But I still think I'm beautiful. I like the way I look.
Sometimes this can also be mentally conditioned, for example, when you suffer from depression etc., and especially when you struggle a lot with yourself and your self-confidence often starts to reduce to such things.
What is important is that you learn that your body is not your enemy or anything else you should give your body what it needs. Eating is incredibly important to you just at your age should you eat well balanced and well.
Do not worry as much about your figure or other you are good as you are and you should reward yourself and your body with enough energy at any time.
Yeah, I had bad times when that started with the food. I think it was depression but was never diagnosed (was not at last)
So yes, can be good
Then take a look at your family doctor and explain the situation, in most cases it is diagnosed relatively quickly.
And depending on how you can do this, you could start a therapy (if you’re ready to do it) that’s all I’m gonna push you the thumbs. (:
It’s difficult. I’ve already been recommended a therapy, but my parents are against it.
You want to have an anorexia, don’t you? This alone isn’t your reason to confirm it because it strengthens your behavior.
What do you mean? I don’t think nobody wants that.
…you can think about it if you don’t want a part in it.
It could actually be an eating disorder.
That sounds very like it.
You should organize therapeutic help.
I can’t, unfortunately, because of my parents. But thank you for your answer
Yes, you can.
Or do they also prevent you from going to the doctor?
Okay, and can’t your social worker talk to your parents again?
So I’ve been suggested by my social guard. But you need a signature from the parents. Parents say I’m too much on my phone and I’m not trying to improve. That if I went to the doctor who’ll tell me the same thing my parents told me.
It’s about 1 and half years.
With what reason?
