Do I Have An Eating Disorder?? Please Tell Me. Posted: 02-25-06 14:42pm
For over a year now, I have been taking
laxatives of up to 60 a day. I have also
been throwing up once a day. The reason
why I am not sure if I have an eating
disorder is because I am not underweight
and I also dont binge. I will eat
breakfast and then I will eat tea, but tea
is when I will throw up. I will never eat
lunch. I also exercise for 5 hours each
day for 5 days a week, is that too much?
I have had to give up college do make sure
I exercise. I also need to weigh myself 3
times a day as I have a fear of becoming
big as I used to be a size 20 but now I am
size 10. :( :( :( :( :?: :?: :?:
:?: :?:

Sailing,
yes you have an eating disorder. I hope
you can get some help it sounds like it is
already controlling your life, having to
quit school and all. Did you read the
post baout laxatives? I found it really
sad and it freaked me out too since I used
laxatives too.

Yes, this is an eating disorder. Your
actual weight has nothing to do with
whether or not you have one--there was a
huge story on the news here a long time
ago about a girl who died and it was such
a shock to her relatives and friends that
she'd died from bulemia (might have been
anorexia). No one even suspected it
because she was on the larger side of a
"healthy" weight.
And if you have to give up college for
exercise, that should tell you something!
