Really pissed off at my mother..?!
Question: Really pissed off at my mother..?
Weight:84
Height:5"4
I really hate my mom...She found my Pro-Ana journal and looked on the history on my computer which I really have to make sure I erase because I go on tons of Pro-Ana sites. My mom tried talking to me but I ran to my room. I'm sick of her talking to me about this. There are thousands of girls my height and weight that have a lower weight than I do. Help them. Don't help me. I don't need help. I packed up all my stuff in a suit case and set up a tent outside. That way my mom doesn't need to deal with me and I don't need to deal with her. I know she's going to come out here sooner than later. I don't know what to say though..Give me feedback on this please.
Answers:
84 lbs for a woman your height is underweight. Look it up on the height and weight tables online at health sites for yourself....you are underweight. What is the worst part of this is your age and the fact that you are now growing into your adult years and your skeletal system is not done growing as well as your other bodily systems. And so, without the extra body fat necessary for your body to develop, you are short-changing yourself for life due to inadequate and poor nutrition. That's a fact.
Here's another fact: you are a minor child. Your parents have a right to sign you into a psychiatric hospital for treatment. Believe it.
And so, you're pissed off at your Mom? You need to invite her into your tent, which is your own space, and tell her that you will have an equal give and take, heart to heart talk with her about this. Why? Because your underweight body is obvious, this combined with what your mother found is ample proof that you have a life-threatening mental illness that you need to get treatment for, understand?
Now is the time.
Your mother is right to get medical help for you because it is her duty, by law, as your parent. Anything less is considered neglect by state law. My hat is off to her for doing what is right as a parent and taking care of your medical needs.
Grow up. These are the facts because you've asked for input and feed back.
I wish you and your Mom all the best.
I did psychiatric intake work at a good mental health hospital for many decades. I am a regular contributor here.
You have an eating disorder and your Mom is worried for your life. She should take you to a doctor who can explain to you how dangerous this is for you. Check it out on the web and see how many anorexics end up dead because they don't eat enough to nourish their bodies and many others do serious damage which cannot be reversed. You may be mad but your Mom loves you enough to be concerned. You need professional help. Let her get it for you before it's too late.
Are you trying to kill yourself? Because that's the road you're on by living like that. There are billions of people on this planet. Just because thousands of girls do something doesn't make it smart. Don't hurt yourself like this. You're under age, my opinion is that your mother has full right to anything in her home. I do understand teens that need/want privacy but it shouldn't be to hurt yourself.
Sweetheart, that's not healthy. I am 13 and weigh 115 pounds. I am perfectly fine with my weight. You are the size of my third-grade neighbor.
Talk to your mom, and tell her why you are dissatisfied with your body now and why you want to be thinner. Is it peer pressure? Thinking you are ugly? (you aren't). Just ask why she wants to help and LISTEN. You need some help, even if you don't want to admit it. It will serve you better in the end.
You packed a case and are running away... to a tent outside? LOL!
You';e been 84lbs for about 4 months according to your posts. Pro-ana sites are dangerous as you know. Just live your life and forget what other people are doing.
Your mom is just trying to protect you. Anorexia is dangerous and has contributed to deaths of many people.
Your 14 and you weigh 84?!!!?!??!!??!???!??!?!??!??!!!
What!!?!????!???!????!!
Eat something!
Just maybe dont talk to her for a while and calm down and tell her you want your privacy
EAT.
stop following pro-ana sites....
their dangerous
Look, I'm 15, 5"4 too. But i'm like 140. It is not healthy to weigh 84 pounds. Listen to your mother.
wow... Im 14 but im not that Immature come on.
I don't run to my room when my mom tries to talk to me, you shouldn't be so ignorant towards her.
Setting up a tent outside? really? I would never do that, if i thought i had serious weight problems i would talk to my mom or even exercise a bit if she said my weight was fine.
Your mom is properly just worried about you.
Please go back into the house and talk to your mother about this, you don't want to Develop anorexia because that's what it leads to most of the time.
You lose a little bit of weight then you want to lose more and more and BAM! your hooked up to a machine in a hospital being tube fed :/
Talk to your mom.
Good luck:)
