Falling, slipping, failing. -- LiveWire Teen Forums

Hey love <3

A lot happens in our lives that we don't necessarily get to control, right? It just happens and it's something that we have to learn to live with and try to compromise within ourselves. Tragedies and other happenings easily sway our lifestyle, especially our eating patterns. Sure it could be an easy 'just go eat,' but we both know that this isn't possible under any circumstances. Stress can bring us to the point that we don't want to touch food anymore. It basically all depends on how you feel for a better sense of words. If you're having a better week/day, well, chances are that you're going to be completely fine with eating. Try to make the best out of a terrible situation which you can. I may not know exactly what's going on, but you are a strong person regardless if you think you are.

Keep trying. There really is no use in just giving up with everything and hoping that the feelings you have will just subside eventually. They won't, and you need to try and find solutions to them. Whether it be by going through alternative sources or just getting rid of the not-so perfect aspects which you have. Old habits are old habits for a reason. Think about how your life was when you used to have an eating disorder. Compare it to how life was before all of this started happening again. Do you really want to go back to that? Knowing that life was (most likely) a lot harder and put you through a lot more problems that were absolutely necessary?

Times are tough, no doubt about it. We have to put our health at the top of our priorities before we allow something as minuscule and harmful like an eating disorder to block our ways. You're right, you can't just eat, and people fail to see that sometimes. What you can do is try to make a conscious effort to at least eat what needs to be eaten throughout the course of the day. Sure it won't be a lot, but as long as you're getting all of the nutrients needed to stay healthy, that's all that matters. Things take time, and you can't allow yourself to slip into another problem that's this far. You're lacking power, but try to find something deep in you that fuels the fire and keeps you going even when you don't want to and you want to give up. In the end, you'll always have family and friends beside you to try and help you. Utilize them for they do truly love you and wouldn't want to see you hurt.

If that doesn't work, scare yourself (easiest words I could use, I guess) out of entering another problem such as this. Look at pictures of people with anorexia nervosa. Research everything you can about it, and look up some of the issues which come with it. Both short-term and long term. This could potentially leave a scar on you for the long-run of your life. Causing you so many internal and other issues it's not even funny. Try looking here and just basically taking the time to look into it. I know you need help, and I know that sometimes we can't beat these things alone, but we need to do our best and rise above the circumstances. Someone can sit there and say you're not fat thousands of times, but it will never mean a word unless you finally realize that you're not fat and become comfortable in your own skin. <3
