Replies to 'Anorexia'

Hi there, i totally understand what your going through. I
had anorexia for a number of years. I was a dancer so i never thought it was that big a deal, it was just what everyone did to look the way the industry wanted us too. I took diet pills all the time, basically lived off of suger free candy to make me feel like i had something in my stomach and very rarely ate. When i did i would throw it up right away for fear that it would "lock" onto my body and i wouldnt be able to get it off. I ended up in hospital for a while and even thought ive "recovered" now i still have health problems from how sever it was. Im only 20 but i have athritis, no immune system, a very serious problem with my gag reflex and i have weekly injections to help my body with everything it is deficant in.

I guess in the end you need a real wake up call to make you stop.
I struggled for years, but when i met ryan (who would turn out to be my future husband) i realised how precious life is. I didnt want to die, i wanted to be around to be with him.
I got help and we worked through it together.

Im sure you have people out there that love you, just go to one of them and tell them whats happening.
Tell them that you arent happy with the way things are anymore and that you want to make a change.
You need to get help as soon as you can...
Once you figure out why your doing this then you can make a change.
Take care.
