How do I tell my parents that I have an eating disorder?
For about eight months now I've been not doing very well. I have been not eating very much at all and, when I do, I end up making myself throw it back up. I am pretty such I am anorexic. I've lost a lot of weight but I've been SO sick. My parents thought I was just on a diet because that's what I kept telling them over and over. I did very good at lying to them so I don't know what to do now because I'm seeing that I need help. My body is a wreck and I'm so unhappy with all of this. I want to be normal again. How do I tell my parents that I've been lying to them and that I'm really sick with this anorexia eating disorder?!

No one can really help you unless you want to help yourself. If you do, you should tell them.
- Them, meaning.. the people that you love..that make you feel good. Blood does not necessarily mean family.. Tell someone you trust.. someone that you trust not to judge you.. but help you over come this sickness.
Keep your head up.. everyone is beautiful in they're own way.. remember that! In the real world.. it's not all about looks. I promise, you'll find someone who loves you for you.. flaws and all.
But so that you know, no one will love you for you if you don't love yourself for who YOU are!

Listen, Family is what we have in the end, They are our support and out of everyone we will ever meet your mother and father are NOT going to abandon you. Sure they might not be happy that you lied to them but you are sick and you need their help. It's a great thing that you realize it, Some people don't ever end up realizing they went to far. Sit down with them, Tell them you have something really important you need to tell them and that it is very serious. Explain to them that you need their support, and then tell them. That is a way of telling them and giving them the heads up it might not be something they really want to hear but it's assuring them that you need their help. They are your family, and that is what they are there for. <3 It isn't the end of the world, Everything will be okay in the end
