If you're twelve, there's a very likely chance that you will be banned from Advicenators. You are not of legal age. Secondly, you have a major problem here. You have a problem to which you will not find an answer on any webpage. You need to tell a trusted adult. They can help you, and you absolutely need to seek it before this kills you.

Tulipg17 answered Tuesday May 23 2006, 8:17 am: You need a psychiatrist, because eating disorders are a psychiatric disorder. You may also need hospitalization to force you to gain weight. Talk to a doctor. Where are your parents by the way? Have they even noticed? If you feel like you can't tell them, ask them to make you a doctors appointment because you don't feel well and tell your doctor everything. They tell you what to do next.

Vikas0930 answered Tuesday May 23 2006, 6:22 am: I'm gonna stress that it's crucial that you go to a doctor and maybe even a therapist. You could die if you don't get the proper nutrition. Drinking water is great but that's not enough. I know the pressure to be thin but you can't do it that way. Tell you parents and get help fast. Then have a doctor give you an eating plan that will help you be at a healthy weight. I'm someone that says its better to be a tiny bit overweight then severely underweight.

Shoval answered Monday May 15 2006, 10:20 pm: Okay. Well I know what your feeling...trust me. I sort of went through some of what your going through now. You must first recognize that this is a serious problem and that you are destorying your body. Has your mom or dad suspected anything? If not, you must must must go see a doctor or tell an adult you trust. You NEED help. It is either get help and become healthy or...maybe die. [ Shoval's advice column | Ask Shoval A Question ]
AskWhatever answered Monday May 15 2006, 10:15 pm: THIS IS VERY BAD. I know you dont want to gain weight and feel bad but you have got to because i have studied this and it gets extremely bad and does nothin but worsen. There are centers to help this, i know you are probably scared to tell your mother but if you dont want to face it alone then tell someone you trust ( best friend, family friend, teacher, relative, etc.) and they will help you talk to your mother or father so you dont have to face this alone.
This is very unhealthy and these are some dangerous effects-
1)your body will eat away your fat, then muscle(makin your extremely weak), then it will make its way to your internal organs, eating it away trying to get energy.
2)You will lose hair and the hair on your body will change along with the rest of your body because it wont be able to keep yourself warm.
3)You lose blood cells and parts of you that keep you healthy (making your body less immune to diseases and illnesses)
You need to get help immediately. If you have to show this letter to your parent. You have to get help as soon as possible. This could become extremely painful and unhealthy causing permanent damage, it could even kill you. I know it will be hard but you have to get help, there are rehab centers for this and you have to check into one before it is too late, you cannot fix this the safe way if you dont get PROFESSIONAL help(such as hospital, rehab centers, doctors)Please get help, i know its scary but it will be worth it. If you need any more help or have questions than just ask me or send them to me. [ AskWhatever's advice column | Ask AskWhatever A Question ]
the.incredible.mable answered Monday May 15 2006, 10:14 pm: If you are starving yourself, and making yourself vommit because of the way that you look, then you have an eating disorder. From what you discribed, you are anorexic and bulemic. These conditions are VERY serious. People with eating disorders need professional help. They may eat and then feel huge guilt and then make them selves vommit. Even if the person is skinny and fit, they will see themself as fat. You need to see your doctor.
I hope you get this before you are banned from the site for being 12.
BRUNETTE__BABiE__CAKESZ answered Monday May 15 2006, 10:07 pm: hey, first off your 12 get off the site! starving yourself isnt the answer. the average 12-13 year old is 100-120 pounds. so your perfect. just eat heathy. if you fel better skip one meal and just eat 2 instead of 3 a day. starving yourself is very dangerous so dont continue too. cait♥ [ BRUNETTE__BABiE__CAKESZ's advice column | Ask BRUNETTE__BABiE__CAKESZ A Question ]
