hi amanda
Im 21 and i suffered from anorexia throughout my teens.I am finally well on the road to recovery but it took years of trying and failing.For me the thing that really made the difference was breaking through the isolation of the disorder.When you have an eating disorder you lie to everyone, your mom, your best friend, you become the only person you trust. You have to let go of this. I mean really let go of this.  You need to confide your deepest fears and insecurities to someone you trust. You have to avoid being alone at times when you are finding it tough, think about it, you wouldnt try to overcome any other chronic illness without the help and suport of loved ones. If this is too difficult I strongly recommend seeing a counceller or even starting a journal.

You are at a turning point now.Continuing down the path you are on will lead to nothing but further isolation, unhappiness and regrets.I wasted my teens with this **** and though it upsets me im so proud to be where i am today. I feel i have found the person i was before again and i know that you can too.  Break the silence.  You are worth finding.

Good Luck

Eating disorders are in addiction that takes a lot of willpower to overcome and support from others. The hardest part to recovery is making it through the beginning processes. I had bulimia on and off for 7 years, wanted to quit so bad but like you each day I wanted to end it but would fail and kept saying well there is always tomorrow but would never do it. I now have some lasting medical problems because of the years of abuse and wish I had stopped sooner. You have to just do it. Eat and stop exercising so much (you don't have to stop altogether but at least go a little easier on it). The first few weeks and months are the hardest but if you can get through it you'll realize what it's like to live with food normally. I started out anorexic though and after being forced to eat began to overeat which just led to bulimia so when you start eating more just pace yourself so you don't make yourself sick. Tell someone who can be there to support you in everything and won't judge you. I know that there is a lot of shame and sometimes it's difficult to let people know but if you have someone you trust it will make it possible to get through. Please make the decision to help yourself and don't wait too long like I did.
