I know exactly where you are, and things can always get better and worse. Really, I've been in this sort of situation for a year+ now, and getting better, well, I think everything happens in a circle. Not what comes around goes around or a you-have-to-pull-yourself-up/get-over-yourself sort of thing. Not to say this is a phase, but you really 'come around' in a way. Spending enough time in this sort of place lets you see it for what it is and you realize the outcomes.
As to your parents. Well. If you're a minor, that's what they do, like it or not. I would say try and explain things, but sometimes I think parents are better off living in their bubble.
I don't trust drugs either, and I've been threatened with going inpatient, etc. I know how you feel about 'help'. Works for some, for others it crushes.
I hate how whenever I'm mad or pissed off or anything, and actually exhibit emotion they label it as being an effect/product of being ill. They really get a bias and don't understand that I'm only human, I have emotions, there's only so much I can do at one time.
I don't understand fully why you posted on here, to just be heard I would, and I get what you mean about being literally impossible to help (exact same thing here), but I know where you come from on all of this. There is no magic pill, nothing will help (for me at least), there's no easy way out, it's not a bad dream; there is no answer to whatever question you could ask. Just don't let yourself be pressured, do things for other people, or bullshit yourself. To be cliche, feel better. If you ever want to talk you can message me or whatever (that was random). It's good to be heard, even anonymously.
It's horrid to realize you're a statistic these days.

You state that you haven't been eating properly in five months and that you haven't had a proper period in four months. This sounds a bit like an eating disorder (but to you don't mention anything about thinking you are fat when you aren't). If you are thinking you are fat, you obviously aren't, so you would need to get psychiatric help now, and your parents would certainly need to be told. That would certainly involve going through some psychiatric programs, even if it's not a hospital.
However, if this is not the case, and you aren't eating because of stress alone, you are going to need to talk to somebody. I hope you have some good friends who can help you. Also, you do sounds like you need to at least see a psychologist, but I don't know how you can do that without getting your parents involved. Maybe there is some counselor you can talk to without your parents knowing, for free or a cheap price? Your county might have some services for this kind of thing. But if nothing else works, your best course might be to get your parents to let you see a psychologist, as you cannot go on feeling like you are, and there's really no other options if you can't do anything I suggested above. I think psychiatric drugs would be better than living in so much pain.
Do realize, though, that if you have to go to a hospital to get help or use any drugs (which may happen), that this doesn't make you a weak person. It is clear that you need help, the way you describe the effects stress is having on your body. I hope you can get some.

Introduce food back in to your diet trying eating a little bit at a time and work up so that you eat more and more. Periods is prob down to the fact that you are so stressed out. You are making yourself very ill. How old are you? Maybe you should start talking to someone that can help maybe your doctor because you will just stress yourself out that much you'll go mental. I hope that you seek proper advice or help and don't leave it till it gets that bad. Good Luck

Hi, well I'm sorry to hear you not well. The first thing you really need to do to get yourself back on your feet is to get some iron into you, this will get you on your way. However your body will not absorb iron without vitamin C. Basically you need to eat something that is high in vitamins and iron, and the best thing is cerials and the chocolate ones have more iron in them than any of the other ones, look on the side of the boxes. But don't forget your vitamin C, ie a glass of fresh orange juice is best. Good luck and I hope you start feeling better soon.

You are in a vicious circle of feeling bad because of your parents actions and their actions are for your well being (seemingly).
You could find your eating problems are a form of rebellion (trying to teach your parents a lesson). Don't take it out on yourself, if you have a problem with your parents it's much better to have a screaming match with them and then make up with them afterwards.
The only advice I can give is for you to see a professional, at least speak to your doctor. Tell him of your drug fears and he should be able to put you on a course of therapy that doesn't require them.
Your physical problems arise from your eating disorder so try to eat something to give your body some much needed nourishment.
It's not worth making yourself physically ill (and mentally ill).
Make a pact with your parents that you will seek medical help yourself and they are to leave you to it for the time being. Then seek your doctors help and try to follow his guidelines.
It very important you do this as if there is no improvement in your condition your parents may well take it upon themselves to act on your behalf. You may not realise it but your parents are doing what they think is best for you and like most parents get it wrong from the child's point of view.

It sounds like you need counselling lazydazy, fast.
There are most definitely underlying issues as to why you are feeling this way, and you need to find another way to direct your negative energy so it doesn't affect your health so badly. Your periods are already affected, i am presuming you know about the complications that can affect you in later life if you don't eat properly.
Try and think of an area of your life you can control that doesn't affect your physical or mental health and seek professional help soon - it is out there for you.
Best of luck.

i think wht u have to do is plan out an alternative way of eating you should slowly change your diet to a healthy one an put in the effort to join a local gym getting your self physical back into to shape an mental you'll need to give yourself enough sleep to rest. and try not to get yourself all worked up for nothing but relax more and slow as you take each day as it comes you'll get better
hope that helps :)

If you haven't had a period in that time, then you are seriously damaging your body by not eating properly-hey that is your choice, you're parents brought you into this world and it is their responsibility to make sure that you are happy, healthy and loved, doesn't seem to me like they are doing a very good job of that, I seriously hope that you do have someone who loves you enough to see what you are going through and give you the help, encouragement and hugs that you so desperately need. All the best hun.

You do need counseling. That doesn't mean you need drugs. A counselor can help you learn tools in order to better deal with your parents. In fact, family counseling could work wonders for you. We are in family counseling and trust me, they do not just take the parent's side, they work so that everyone is happy. Please start taking good care of yourself, use discipline and quit blaming anyone else for your own actions. Own yourself!
