Tell a trusted teacher, or even your parents. Anorexia is a terrible disorder, and your life is at risk right now. It doesn't matter if you are known for causing drama, just keep it quiet from your peers and make sure somebody older finds out. If you don't want to deal with it at your school, tell a friends mum, or your local doctor. You must tell somebody who is able to help you. They can't not believe you, because this is such a serious issue.

hey,
honey, i'd give you one piece of advice. you must not deal with anorexia alone. the best advice, really, is to tell a family member because these people are the ones who live with you. and you guys will have to put up with each other no matter what. since we are in a modern genaration, you can also try going to websites with anorexia survivors and stuff like that so that you can have someone to talk to for a while. however, that choice is not 100 % accurate and somewhat not really advisable.
i hope this helps :)

Well if you dont really want to talk to your parents or teachers, you can talk to a school counsilor. Hopefully you have one at your school, or if you have an older brother or sister old enough to help you with this problem (preferably 18 and up). All though it may be uncomfortable, i really think you should talk to your mother or father, at least this way they can get you the help. If you have none of the above you can try talking to your family doctor, you can also ask for them not to disclose any information to your parents.
Now how to tell them is a different matter. First things first, if you dont want everyone to know, I suggest you find a place where you can talk alone. Like an office, a room (if you tell your parents) etc. Then sit them down and let them know that you have an important and serious topic to discuss with them. Make sure to mention to them that they should hear you out before saying anything. Wait untill they are quite and calm, as well as your self. Then slowly but clearly tell them about it. Say the problem first, then explain why you started (you should think of why you started in the first place)and how long this has been going on. If you tell them face to face, with just the two of you,they will understand that you are serious and really want to get help or at least address the problem. Hoping for the best, good luck!
