Okay, I've got something wrong with me... I'm scared to eat. I'm only 14 and love to eat, but recently (3 weeks ago today) I scratched my throat or something and it's really weird and hard to eat. Here are some details:
1. I've dropped 15 lbs.
2. I've thrown up twice.
3. I've gone through a lot of stress lately. Maybe that has something to do with it?
4. My mom's letting me get out of school to go to the doctor tomorrow.
5. My grandpa, stepmom, mom, and dad think I'm anorexic (yeah right, a fat anorexic girl! lol no joke)
So if you can recommend anything to help me, if there is anything you can possibly do, I'd appreciate it!
