• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm not sure what I can do to not make this triggering, so I just added the warning.

Ok, I've struggled a lot with my weight since I started high school (#years) yr# I'd never eat at school, I was always so scared that people were watching me & judging me. So I just didnt eat, this became more & more of a habit & by half way threw the yr, even though I wouldnt admit it, I had anorexia. the only mean I'd eat would be when I got home from school & i had the house # myself, but that I also vomited up.​

by the end of the year, I didnt feel any thiner, but everyone was telling me 'ally, you've lost so much weight' it was over the summer that people started becoming concerened, my youth leaders would take the girls to the beach for the day & we'd be out from #:##am-##pm as we went to planetshakers after & they'd be really worried, I hadnt ate all day.​

After school went back I felt better about my self & got over that, the only time I'd throw up was when I felt like I'd ate too much at dinner.​

But now, I'm feeling very insucure about my size, as i gained back all the weight I had lost while I had the eatting disored, plus a bit more I think.​

& I've been starting to throw up my food at lunch, if I eat when I get home from school & dinner. Today I fought so hard not to vomit up my lunch at school, especial after my friends said that they didnt wanted just them # as the buddy group for city experience in #weeks & tonight made it even worse b'coz I saw a photo of my full body at the skinest I got & I feel so awful bout myself.​


I dont know what I'm trying to say in this post, Just I need some help with it. The eatting disored comes about a lot worse when I'm trying not to cut.​


Yea. Sorry its such a long post.​

I just wanna know what to do, is this an eatting disored? I think its one thats not officaly named.​

What should I do?​

Hun... It is hard, but just start relying on logic and truth rather than your feelings about your body and it's weight. Start attempting to be healthy rather than thin :hug:

Secondly, try and aviod seeing photos of when you were really thin :hug: I know that it's hard, but I know that those photos are such annoying triggers as I'm sure you do.. I'll try and think of more that can help but keep going and keep hoping hun... You are better and more precious than you will ever know :hug:
