I'm new on this board but i'm posting here because i'm a little confused...i just came back from an appointment w/ my psychiatrist and he thinks i have an eating disorder..he thinks that's why i'm depressed..he's completely wrong and i personally don't think i do have an e.d..i've read some other posts here and i don't think i'm in the same boat. I don't eat a lot and yes i'm trying to lose weight..i realize that i'm not fat but i feel horrible when i look in the mirror anyways..it just makes me feel better to lose weight and i really have no regard for my health so i really don't care what happens but whenever i see that i've lost another pound it feels like..yes, i did something right! hmmm, i don't really know why i'm posting this and i really don't know what the point of this is but i'm just wondering what others think...i've been on and off w/ this 'not eating' or 'throwing up' for about 5 or 6 years now but i feel like i really need to do this now...maybe it's a control thing..ahh who knows??
