Well, I don't exzacally have any ideas but, I do know how you feel about being called names my friends and I do it to eachother all the time. But, I guess it just now started getting to me. I have recently started throwing up everything I eat. Now, I wish that I never teased any1 bout it and that they wouldn't tease me. I have stopped calling them names but, they continue to call me. Anyway, what I say to you is just ignore it eating disorders could only make things worse. I hope this helps!

Love, arisha09

And have you tryed to talk to them and tell them thay hurt you when they call you names?
Maybe that's a start point.
And vomiting doesn't help you in your life either, believe me... :\

They wouldnt listen, my older sister has it worse than I do, she sat the whole family down to talk about her feelings and her problem, but no one listens and they just played around with there food, and she ended up running out of the house...

I understand it's hard, it has happened to me too when I was younger, but try to keep cool... In my case, I talked to my friends and showed them how they were hurting me and it kinda worked. The rest, time did it...

Yea its really hard but you still shouild try to talk to the ones calling you names. This happens to me in school right now and it sux. I know how t feels when someone wont listen. Well were here to support you if you ever need it:)

My friends didnt even notice when it happened in 9th grade, and all I got from my english teacher everyday was "are you depressed?" rawr!

Did u want them to notice?

Maybe you really should talk to them.. Then at least you've tryed something more..

Well hell if they are my best friend or something than I think I would want them to notice....Who wouldnt??? You know somebody for years and stuff and u expect them to show some care or something....I do remember one girl she was like if u dont eat im gonna call ur mommy, and then I had to go to the nurse and have long talks, it was like therapy......Lol maybe I should go, but I dont think my parents would let me since my other sister went to one and they screwed her up even more by giving her all these drugs....Some of my friends knew ....I wasnt allowed to say much about it cause of my parents told me not too.....I guess what I should really say, is f*** friends and family?

Yeah sorry I wasnt thinking right you I guess you would want them to notice but I thought you just meant friends not your best friends sorry. If you want your friends to help then talk to them. Also they might have noticed in 9th grade but they were scared and did not know how to approach you and your problem.

Sometimes, I think going back to the old me was the best, I dont wanna be this size and going shopping and being able to wear whatever I want made me feel alot better, but its just how everyone approched it you know? Wow u lost weight soooo fast so how did u do it? Wow ur super skinny! It was like I was wrong for being that small even though I got that small the wrong way, why is okay for all the girls that r naturally that way to be accepted but when ur like a little over and u go down there ur like an alien from another planet....I may have not been happy but I was happy with myself, and now I just look at myself with more disgust that I let myself gain it all back

Yeah I know what your saying. I loved being skinny being able to shop and fit everything. People are always saying that kind of stuff like your not allowed to be skinny if you werent naturally, exactly like feeling like an alien from another planet. You shouldn tlook at youself with disgust try being more positive when you see yourself like man I lok good today. I really dontknow what to say to help besides being positve. I feel the same way and I can only hope the best for you. Just dont go back toyour old ways please if you need to talk im here for ya.
Think pos :)

That's a lot of girls' dream: go to a shop and fit everything.. The sizes are getting shorter every season...
But doing it the wrong way like many of us can turn worse.. What's the point of being skinny if I 'm not able to enjoy it because i'm no healthy or so?
:\

Good point but I still wish. Howare you guys?

I can't blame you, because I still wish the same way. I blame myself because I had a bread for lunch and a soup (it was awful and tasted really bad, but my mom obliged me :() for dinner. I wish that I didn't have to come back home, but that's not a good thing to wish... :( I guess I spend even more time out of home so that my mom won't argue with me so often :(

Being skinny is not the answers, being healthy is! An eating disorder can kill you, without the proper nutrients in your system you can end up with early osteoarthritis, your teeth falling out your stomach and esophogus messed up, end up being fed by a tube that goes to your abdomen, please do not allow those people to make fun of you, if they say they are your friends then you need to sit them down and talk to them aand let them know how much they are hurting you as the poster said before and if they continue, then they are not very good friends of yours and it is time to find some better friends and if it is your family, sit them down and have a very good heart-to-heart talk with them and tell them that you need some professional help because of your eating disorder and their is nothing to be ashamed of, you are not alone, I am sure that you have seen some older women that hve the eating disorder and som do not even weigh 80 lbs. That are near death, you do not want to be that bad when you get older, that is why, you need to get it under control while you are still young. If your parents do not seem to want to help, talk to a school nurse or an aunt or someone older that can maybe help you get into mental health, please, do not take me wrong, I am not trying to tell you that you are crazy, we all need some help with our life at times and they may be able to give you some good info of who to get a hold of to help you and talk to you!
The very best to all!

Yeah you should talk to your friends and parents as sandyallen. Our minds are not thinking correctly or we do not allow it to anyway thats why I wish as many of you do to that we could be skinny butthats not the key to life. Life is being happy being who you are. Were all different.

Yup.. That's right, but sometimes it's hard to think otherwise than those awful thoughts about fat and cals, don't you feel that?
Yesterday I went to my therapist and she said that I was doing good. It's about summer time and I hate that, but i'm trying to think about better things...
