i used to be like that too never being hungry, but i think my reason for that is my medication. i think its fine to just not b hungry but dont try and starve yourself that wont help. and yes it is scary but i think i am goin to try i hope it all goes ok for you too.

I don't think you should wait to see a doctor this is serious. But I know were yur at I am 16 as well and I hate my body. I tryed starving for 2 day but stoped when I read it slows your matabalizim down. I was perfectly fine with not eating cuz I'm like never hungry. And when I am I fill up after 1 pr 2 bites. I know I should see a doctor but I am to scared so yyour way ahead of me I wish you the best of luck

Good for you! Yes, it is definitely scary to get help, but staying with the way things are is scary too. Let us know how it goes!

You are probably posting here because you suspect you have an eating disorder and you want help to stop. Eating disorders are an illness, and like any illness you can't just will or wish it away; you need treatment. Treatment would be something like asking your doctor for referral to a therapist with experience working with eating disorders. Many young girls have this problem and some go for years without getting help. Unfortunately it gets worse, not better and the longer you have it the harder it is to treat. Please don't spend too much more of your life suffering with this disorder, when you could be enjoying your teenage years.
