Answer 1

I was 11 when I became anorexic I was about 90 pounds and lost about 30 it affected my attitude to people and I became depressed, i realized I had an eating dissorder because my friends and family treated me differently and saying I should get some help, so i went to a special treatment hospital for 18 months and i was aloud to go home cause I reached my ideal weight which was 100 pounds. And now i'm 14 and 112 pounds which is underweight for my height but i'm yet still recovering. Hope it helps(:

Answer 2

1. I was 15 years old

2. I lost 46 pounds in 3 months

3. It made me unable to concentrate in school. I was socially withdrawn because there were so many social situations involving food. I became irratable as I thought everyone was laughing at me

4. I realised I had an eating disorder when I noticed that was the fifth time in a day I'd weighed myself.

Answer 4

I was 16, just moved out home and the control of my food was over powering, i lost 6 stone in 4 months, i enjoyed the fact i was thin but hated everything that came with it. The mood swings the constant thought of food. Like it was torturing me, it first i thought i was hearing voices because the person in my head kept telling me Im fat and i was ugly. I used to punish myself by comparing myself with models in magazines or on tv, thinkin a wanted to be like them,

I knew i had a problem when i started avoiding friends and family party or get togethers, really kept myself to myself, my mum had enough watching me basically starving myself and took control, slowly but surly i started to eat and learned to cook so i started to really enjoy food. I recovered for 5 years and gained a problem.HELL of. Alot of weight. I relapsed and lost 5 stone in 3 months. I am still struggling.
