Under eating

gonerlair May 22nd

Hey everyone, I’m not sure if i have an eating disorder or what, just in the past 5 days ive started eating less and less food, i mean much below of how many calories i should eat minimum. It got worse when my bf broke up with me. Im 16 and I aparently eat under my minimum calorie intake (for clear reasons i have been on a diet for over a week now to lose weight) i cant bring myself to eat anything, i eat just two small meals a day, sometimes one and the rest of the day consists of small snacks in the evening if we don't have food. I’m not sure what to do? I do feel stressed for a long periods of time sometimes and that pushes me to not eat cause im afraid of stress eating.

I'm glad you posted.  Stress and the loss of a relationship can both impact eating.  It can take away your appetite or create the desire to overeat.  Have you spoken to your physician about your changes in your eating at all, or anyone else who knows you and might know you well? 

There is a guide on eating disorders here on 7 Cups you might want to check out too.  https://www.7cups.com/eating-disorder-help/
