Can you please help me?


Question Posted Monday May 15 2006, 10:30 pm

Hello, I am a 15 year old girl and I think I need some help getting people to leave me alone. Over this past school year, I have lost weight. Mostly by experimenting with anorexia and bulimia. I now constantly have people on my back yelling at me. It seems like everyone is against me, and everyone is jealous because I am not skinnier than them. I am tired of hearing my friends and my family yell at me. I wish they would just leave me alone. I understand that it is not the best way to lose weight, but if i eat, i feel sooo fat. So i just wont. No one understands how i feel, i doubt you will either, so please just help me get them to leave me alone, i dont think i can take it much longer.

Okay listen, you can give me the worst rating in the world or hate me for this but at least think over what I'm telling to you. If you have an eating disorder I am not going ot understand how you feel and it will seem like not a lot of people will.

I know it sounds preachy but I must overemphasize this because I want you to understand this. The reason why people are on your back is because they care about you and they are concerned for you. You already know you're making a really bad choice, why keep at it? Food is not suppose to make you feel guilty. And if it does there is a problem. Please listen to them. They love you and they don't want you to die froms omething this stupid. You're 15 years old and you shouldn't be living life like this. I know what a struggle it is to seem someone with an eating disorder. It progresses so badly, you look at them and what to cry. You wonder how they ever got to this point. Don't be anotehr statistic. Please. You're much better than that.

Anorexia and Bulimia are psychological eating disorders. Right now you are so afraid of getting fat or being overweight that you feel like you shouldn't eat. Pretty soon you'll have a body image disortion for the rest of your life. You'll never know how you really look. And I think going through life like that is pretty fucked up. You'll always think you're one way when you actually aren't. You always think about food even thought you'll deny it. You're skin will be yellow. You'll have a bunch of facial hair. Your hair will fall out. You'll always be cold. You won't be able to enjoy life because you'll have no energy. You may feel like you're in control but actually you're losing the control you have. And if it progresses further you may not have a child and you may be dead. So please stop it.

I'm not against you, just against your decision. However if this is how you want to live, I can't make you stop. You are in control of your own decisions. Your friends and family know that but pretty soon you better know that you'll end up killing them along with yourself. And that's not fair. It would be ashame to have them cry and worry about you because of your image or what you're doing to yourself. You'd be hurting your parents. Losing a child or a friend is the worst thing ever. Their lives are going to be negatively affected by your decision. You're being very selfish, I think. To put people through that is the worst thing you can possibly do. Please think about it. Seriously.


If you continue doing what your doing this may be the result.
