Words of advice on love:
- Don't ever let someone tell you that you are not in love.
- If you say that you THINK you're in love, then you aren't. If you really feel it, then you are.
- Never let someone judge your relationship unless they know FACTS.
- To me, age is not an issue. If you are 13 and dating a 30 year old, then it's a big deal. If it's 5 or 6 years, not a big deal.
- If you are being abused mentally/physically GET OUT OF THE RELATIONSHIP! Don't give the excuse that he apologized. If he loves you he wouldn't do that to you.


I'm not a fan of answering questions that are listed in the FAQ. If it's a question you can look up on Google then please, look it up on google. Don't be lazy.

advice

please help-

my weight was 124 (5'3, 14 yrs old) in the begining of the year. by april i got to 115 with healthy eating and running/exercising. then it was 110 in june for my physical. now my scale shows me between 100-105 though my scale is off a little. i don't feel like i do, but my friend who was annorexic and knows alot about it tells me she thinks i have an eating disorder. alot of people tell me im skinny and look real thin. my friends mom tells me i need to eat im getting to thin, and a few other people too. i dont think i do really. i eat good in my opinion. i eat portion sizes, like with my cereal and meats and stuff. i eat alot of fruits and veggies. i haven't had a candy bar in months, and on speical occasions i have cake for parties, or desserts but never over my limit. i do exercise.. cheerleading, bike riding alot, running sometimes, i exercise with crunches in my room all the time. when i wake up and push my stomach out it doesn't even go very far. but still i haven't had my period since the begining of april and it was really light for like 3 days. i get really dizy when i get up from laying down (my mom says i might need more iron). i dont know if i have manutrition because i do eat alot of good food. i still want to be thinner sorta, but mainly i just have this biggest fear of gaining weight. i have a weird issue with looking at every food (wheather at parties, houses, my kitchen, stores) and seeing the labels and deciding what i can and can't have. i dont know if i should tell my mom to take me to the doctor or not, i dont know how to tell her. also at times i have zero energy like im so tired i can't move around or whatever. im not sure. someone please help.. anything is appericated.

I don't think that you have an eating disorder if you are in fact eating food and exercising.


I'm 5'3" and I weigh 111 and I just have a very small frame and that is the right weight for me.


Obviously I cannot diagnose you being that I am 18 years old and still a student in highschool, but it does sound to me that you could be getting sick.

Your issue with looking at every food and not wanting to eat it CAN be the start of a future eating disorder, which you need to stop yourself from doing. Also, there could be something wrong with your blood, so I do suggest that you go to the doctor.

I am anemic, which just means I have very low iron in my blood and that can make you lose weight and feel very tired.


You really should tell your mom to take you to the doctor, because you never know, you could be sick. I'm not trying to scare you or anything, but I told my mom to take me to the doctor and I had my blood tested and found out I was anemic. It could also be lymes disease or something, but again I am not diagnosing you.


If you want to tell your mom to take you to the doctor just tell her that you want to go! It's not a huge deal, at least she'll know that you care enough about yourself that you want to make sure there is nothing wrong. And when you do go to the doctor tell him/her that you want to get your blood tested to be sure you're healthy. Your doctor will just do a full physical on you and any question they ask you answer TRUTHFULLY!


I wish you luck.
