Everyone thinks I have *** i just want to be beautiful

[Meg_676]

My friend told the school councilor that I wasn't eating.I was eating but not much, now everything is worse and I am eating a lot less.I know there is something wrong and i shouldn't be losing weight this way but it makes me feel good. I don't think I am anorexic yet but i could be soon. my mum has to go to these meetings with the school to decide what has to happen and she doesn't want to make me do anything yet because she thinks that because i am still over weight that when i get to a healthy weight i will be OK and that i have had to much stress in my life and its good that now i have something to control. Everything is so stressful now but everything is the best it has been in years my abusive father is out of my life and my abusive brother has had to move to my grandparents place. Should i make my mum go to the docter for me and make me go to the eating disorder clinic and lose my chances of losing weight or should i trust my mum and ride things through and see how it turns out????

Hi darling! Do what you think feels right! No one can make that choice but yourself! Just remember that health is really important.. how old are you? My opinion doesnt really matter but I do think you should see a doctor.. I was very much the same as you years ago mentally and if it wasn't for seeing a doctor I never would have got the help I needed and be a strong independent lady I am today! Hang in there and dont be mad at your friends they obviously care about you thats why they said something

dear Meg, so pleased that  you have joined us, as it's always great to have new people jump on board.

Your mum must love you to pieces as she is providing and protecting your best interests.

Firstly I am so pleased that your father has left you and I that he nor your brother have done anything harmful, and I mean this in many different ways that would cause great concern for you down the track.

I would hold off at the moment and not make an unknown situation develop into something that may not even occur, this can be done sooner than than later, if you want, but again it also depends on how your eating is going, and if for any reason that your mum hears you in the loo after a meal then it's time for her to see the doctor.

I hope that this stage can be avoided, and can only do so by you.  Geoff. x
