    Question new and confused

    ive not used this forum before so hi, im new
    im a bit confused, ive not really spoke to other ppl who have eating disorders about mine before and im a bit confused, wonder if everyone elses is similar...

    ive had problems with eating since i was at dance college few years ago wen i got piked on for being too fat and i lost ALOT of weight but it wasnt thru anorexia, then i was picked on for being too skinny (picked on by the teacher this is).. after that wen i started gaining a bit of weight again i was terrified n hated it n thats wen i started dieting and exercising, which then which then escalated into eating as little as possible all the time and exercising to burn off alot more calories than i had eaten that day.

    so thats that but that was couple of years ago and since then i have had phases wer i jus eat what i want n gain weight n although its always nagging me in my head it never goes but i can jus ignore it...then something can trigger me off again...

    and about a month ago its tuk hold of me again as i became ill and lost a little bit of weight, that started me of again and i now need to lose loads of weight im obsessed again and im glad cause i look and feel better. ive lost a stone now in a month since then im now 128lbs...

    jus wondering tho as it confuses me...does this happen to all of you where u have times of it easing off n then coming back?
    i eat as little as possible, think about food and not eating 24/7, constantly execrcise, if i eat something shit i feel 10 times fatter then next day even tho u no its impossible and angry with myself and i NEED to b really skinny....i defo have a prob with food dont i? is all of you the same?? it drives me mad but at the same time it makes me feel good

    Hiya hun an welcome,

    Ok first off, trust me, anybody who has an eating disorder, food or (lack of food) is always on their mind.Anytime your eating your thinking u shouldnt be, and wen ur on a serios fast, all u wanna do is eat, but then punish urself even longer 4 even contemplating eating...
    I know how u feel, i also used to dance, but once Ana took a serios hold of me i gave it up (like everything else i enjoyed). And i kno how u feel bout the whole wait gain thing, its actualli the worst feeling in the world, i was hospitilised las year for 2 months, force fed the whole lot, so the wait gain jus made me wanna die. Aniways im not encouraging u to lose wait r anithing, jus sayin i kno how it feels an all that...

    hey welcome

    something i've been doing when I have a really strong craving is swishing with mouthwash. We have this flavor that I can't stand and once I have that taste in my mouth I have no desire to eat anything else.

    I don't know if it'll help you, but It's been working for me!

    It's the same here, I think of food constantly.... Then I go on a diet and might loose 5-7kg then I can't keep it up -not eating, and gain all the weight again!

    If I think about food I don't want to eat, unless I haven't eaten in too long in which case I tend to wolf down as much of whatever I can get my hands onto, and then feel guilty and... well you know the cycle. Talking about food makes me not hungry too. I mean I love food, I love to eat, but the thought of food makes me very not hungry. It's really weird.
