Well, gotta give us more than that if you want help. If you just want to vent, that’s cool too.

In any case, I will hug you and hope you are on your way to recovery.

i know the feeling.
i was in pretty much the exact same spot, severely aneamic also. then i had a heart attack, because i was so thin my body ate my heart to survive basically.

but i lived. and “recovered”. I.e i dont spend every second of every day obsessing about food, calories and exercise now. and i live a normal life. and im somewhat healthy. most definitely a hell of a lot happier.

so if you want to survive you can.
it is ******* hard. and sometimes seems way easier to just succumb to the ED. easier it probably is. better? HELL NO.
if youd like support or help or just an ear to vent at from someone who knows personally what youre going through, my shout box is always open to you or we could talk here.

It looks like the cause has not been found, eating disorder is a symptom of something. Who says you’ll die? Doctors? Don’t listen to them, they don’t know everything.

they do when it comes to anorexia. its extremely detrimental to your health, and has the highest mortality and reoccurance rate of any mental disorder, with 1/3 of people dying from it.
so yea, do listen to your doctors, coz they went to medical school for 7 years to tell you what they tell you, and didnt just answer a post on a help ste.
