Depression
I don't understand why, and I dont want to have to consult another adult. But every so often I get extremly depressed and I stop eating for like a day or so and it scares me because what if it gets worse and I stop eating alltogether? I think it has to do with my dancing, because I'm the biggest girl out of all of them and when we get measured and such I am always really embarissed. And I always feel like I'm leftout a bit while I'm dancing but then other days I'm having a blast at dance with everyone. I also play 3 different intruments, sing, and do theatre, french immersion, and a smart people math. Is getting myself into all of this trigging off something? I dont really ever feel stressed but am I actually? Please help!

It could be stress, because your body could be just responding to all of these tasks which you're asking it to do. But I doubt this.
Depression is when you're upset about something, but it is excalated. Kind of like paranoia except the reverse.
You have to identify times when you feel depressed and see what you were doing before that. Was it after a dancing class? Or was it after you had a practice of some sort? Identifying the cause is really good because then you can work out ways to get around it.
Keep happy thoughts in your mind and don't worry about the eating, just try and be as normal as possible.
Good luck with the future,

This sounds like it might lead to an eating disorder. Firstly, please, don't worry about your weight. Comparing yourself to other people is only harmful. But if you decide that you really do want to lose weight, you might want to take more controlled steps about it rather than stop eating for a day or so, because that might actually cause you to gain weight as your body thinks it is being starved. Because you sound like you do a lot, you might be stressed - I don't suggest giving one of these things up, but perhaps making sure every day you have time to relax and think properly.
If you really are worried it might be time to consult another adult; someone you trust or a medical professional, and if you do stop eating for longer, tell someone because that would be very serious. I hope it doesn't come to that. You sound like a cool person, and I really hope you sort things out. Good luck! :)
