I'm pretty sure I'm depressed. Two years ago things started to get really bad, and last year I battled anorexia (something that I still feel the effects of everyday). When I was in the prime of my disorder, I would lose control for a span of about 5 minutes often, screaming, crying, yelling stuff at reflection in a mirror, and even punching myself. Nowadays, though I am at a healthy weight, I have new problems in school. I only have one friend, everyone ignores me, and I am a "geek." I used to be moderately popular. And this one guy that I was absolutely SURE I loved dumped me. My schoolwork is a lot harder, and I'm having trouble with time management...so a lot is going on for me right now. And I'm having these "panic attacks" again.
But here's the problem. Whenever I hint to my mom that I might need help, she says I'm just sad. She didn't particularly love having to pay for a nutritionist and a therapist in the past...what do you think I should do?
