Answers:
i was anorexic a couple years ago and most people had no idea until i started to look really thin and pale!.

i know how people at school will react!. they will see you looking thin and unhealthy, but no one says anything!. they will all just talk behind your back about how skinny you are and how you need to eat something!. friends and family will say something to your face, but most other people will just feel bad for you, but they dont wanna approch you because they dont want to make you feel bad!.

the best is just dont tell people!. it draws to much negative attention!.

START EATING!!! I know you have heard this so many times, but having had a eating disorder myself I feel like it is part of my duty to give you a boost of confidence and help you get out of it!.

i thought that being skinny and "perfect" would make everything in my life okay and everything would be perfect, but in reality, it made everything worse and nothing changed!. I feel SO much better now that I gained my weight back!. You can look SO beautiful without being a rail!. TRUST ME! I would know!. When I was anorexic, my boyfriend didnt even want to touch me because I was so skinny and unattractive!. men like their women to have meat on them and to be HEALTHY!. anorexic is not healthy!. I hope hope hope you get better soon and realize you are a beautiful girl who doesn not need an eating disorder to control your life and make who you are!. eating disorders are DEADLY!. if you do not act soon it could be too late!.

what would you rather have!?

-hair loss
-pale
-weak
-depression
-guys being unattracted to you
-people talking behind your back at school

OR:

-nice, long, shiny hair
-being stong and healthy
-being happy about the way you look and everything that goes on in your life
-and people thinking you LOOK GOOD because you gained your weight back

!?!?!?!?

you can choose!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They told me to eat!. I wouldn't tell anyone you don't really trust, they just wouldn't understand that you get physically ill at the idea of eating because you have a phobia of becoming fat!. Start studying up on healthy eating habits and excersize!. You might also try talking to a councelor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's none of their business!. Tell your friends not to tell anyone else!. The whole school does not need to know your business!. As long as your parents have signed you up for some therapy and you are getting the help that you need to better yourself that is all that matters!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

don't be afraid to tell people!. it's nothing you need to be ashamed of!. many people go through it!.
chances are!.!.!.the people you tell will be people who will be willing to help you and support you the whole way!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you were truly anorexic, people you have mentioned wouldn't let you go around continuing this behavior!. Also, a true anorexic wouldn't want anyone to know at all!. It is the nature of the beast!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

ummm well i have never had a eating disorder but it would prolly be better to just not tell more people cus it could be taken that you just want attention if you start telling alot of peoples, good luck
