Hello,
I am an 18 year old female, college student (Child and Youth worker program; first year), and weight approx. 190 pounds.
Could my behaviour indicate an eating disorder of some sort (not anorexia or bulemia as far as I can tell? Behaviour present for 1 1/2 years:
I often consult health reccomendations and buy healthy food. I follow Canada's Food Guide and always aim to make healthy lunches and dinners. Excercise mainly consisting of short frequent work outs or walking. However:
- have extreme guilt about eating, but love cooking.
- I don't eat breakfast
- lack of eating, sometimes only having 1 -2 meals over a 2 day period
- Rarely eat lunch during the school week.
- I have a need to feel skinny and pretty
- I don't like eating in front of others unless I know they have a large appetite
- i have a large appetite
- have tried binging and purging in the past - not recent
- uses 1 -2 weight loss pils
I am also dignosed with boderline personality disorder. I am just seeking opinions until I can talk with a councelor for this and other issues.
Thank you for reading and hopefully responding,
Lizz
