I just wanted to know if I was anorexic... I'm a 14 year old girl and since the start of the year (I weighed 60kg then), I've been concious of what I eat and about exercise. I lost 5-6kg due to that but I still feel bad about my body image and the way I look. I have a large nose and I feel if I can't have a nice face, at least have a nice body. I looked up anorexia nervosa in wikipedia and I have a lot of the symptoms - my bones creak, my period has been really late lately, my lips are chapped, I have a short temper, lanugo hair on my body, I exercise for atleast 50 minutes per day (week day), I worry far too much about food and about gaining weight from it. I'd ideally like to weigh 52 kg, but I just don't know what to do...I'd like to tone my stomach and calfs, because I feel they are fat. But if I am anorexic (judging by the number of symptoms I have, I probably am), what should I do? How should I tell my mum about this? Or should I tell my best friend or older sister? Thank-you.
