I'm really scared, I think i might be anorexic, am I?

Question

I hardly eat, and when I do eat I eat somthing, and then throw it up. I am 5"2 and 82 pounds. Am I anorexic?
And I think I am overweight, but my friends tell me I am a bone.
I am always dizzy and I am always cold.

Answer 1

It sounds like you suffer from both anorexia and bulimia. You are obviously underweight and if you don't seek medical attention and help you'll end up in the hospital and you can even die. Don't play with that. Please get help.

Answer 2

Well, you definetely have a problem. Eat healthy food and take vitamins. You also need to eat foods that are rich in fiber and iron, such as raisins and peanut butter. NO junk food, that will just make you sick. Also, eat at least two meals a day. Don't just snack on things. You should probably eat breakfast as well, because it will set the pace for what you eat the rest of the day.

You ARE NOT even near overweight. You only weigh 20 pounds more than my 5 year old cousin.

If none of this works, you definetely need to go to the doctor and get things checked out.

Answer 3

Yes it sure does sound like you have that or either bulemia or even both. i currently have a friend with anorexia and she is very poorly. Your dizziness is lack of energy, which we obtain from the food we eat; always being cold is another sign of having no energy (as well as hot/cold sweats).
My advice is to see your doctor and i mean soon, this is a very serious condition and a lot of people have been hospitalised with it. The sooner you share this problem then the sooner you can start to get better but you need to help yourself first before anyone else can.

Answer 4

It sounds like you are anorexic/ bulimic. It's good that you're recognizing it though. See if you can find a therapist to help you work this out. One of my best friends struggles with anorexia but after a few weeks of inpatient treatment, plus months of consistent counseling, she is starting to get it under control. It's really important that you do something about this now before the disease ruins your body.

Answer 5

yes you are,you have all the classic symtoms.you need to seek medical help and or psycriatic treatment as to arrest this problem before you encounter more serious health risks,the prime of which is heart damage.the fact that you have'nt denied what has been told to you and you asked this question means you have set yourself up to turn a corner on this and get the help you need.this condition does'nt in the least mean you're crazy or somthin,i commend your bravery and courage.asa side note,anorexia is completly treatable and curable,but you have to take that first step,tell someone preferably a family member and get help asap and find anorexia support groups which will help you understand that you are'nt alone

Answer 6

I hate to say it, but it sounds like you are anorexic. 82 pounds is not overweight, and what you must realize is that too skinny is just as unattractive as overweight could ever be.

Answer 7

Yes you should talk to your doctor. Dizziness is a sign of not eating enough. You also shouldnt throw up your food and you need to eat more.

Answer 8

That is so sad that you even have to ask....You need to go to your doctor/ parents/ guidance counselor, whomever!! With all the publicity about Nicole Richie out there, I find it amazing that you haven't compared your statistics with hers?????
GOOD LUCK!!

Answer 9

You need to see a doctor right away. This sounds like a serious problem. That is def not enough weight for your height.

Answer 10

you need to seek help immediately! It sounds like you are a combo of anorexic and bulimec
