i've had an eating disorder for 2 years now.
I've had an eating disorder for two years. everyone tells me I need to get help but I really don't want to. Please don't tell me I need to eat or I need to stop throwing up because I get that all the time. Is there any way I can get help for this WITHOUT going into a treatment center? I already have a therapist, but I don't think she takes me very seriously. I don't think she understands eating disorders at all. What should I do?

If you don't want to get help, then don't. In the end, it's your body and you can destroy it in whatever manner you seen best fit.
Basically, in my experience with people who need help, myself included, no one can help you till you want help. If you don't want help, then no treatment center in the counry can help you. They'd just ask you to leave.
So, yeah. If you don't want help don't get it. Simple as that.

Hey,
Well if your parents, family, or friends know about this already maybe you could have a talk with them. Tell them that you want to get better but that you don't want to get hospitalized or anything like that. Tell them that you don't think that your therapist understands you. Maybe they could help you get a another therapist. Have you tried getting into group therapy? It helps to be around people who can relate to you instead of always being around people who just don't understand what you are going through. I really hope you get better, not just because being too thin is dangerous for your body, but because I know how much it messes up everything else in our lives. Take care <3.
