well i have just finished my first semsester of college and i have really messed up. So i went to a psy. on campus and they suggested i withdraw for the semester so i don't have to bring up all the f's which i did. also alot of this stems from my depression but also from add. So im going to start taking medication for it again. i haven't gone to my psychiatrist yet but i have to say im alittle afraid. my mother hates the idea of mental health *bad for a nurse i know* but i really think this is going to help and this is worth it. i just have to say im afraid to start taking meds again. i don't want to be anarexic again... just kinda scared in general. just looking for some solace i suppose.

You didn't mention which meds you tried in the past. Having been on a couple myself, I found Concerta did not effect my appetite very much, where Adderall killed it. Also, you could try Strattera, which is the only non-stimulant ADD medication on the market.
