im slowly getting back into not eating again 😞. I don't know what to do. i was doing so good Damn It 😭. now im barely eating again, but at least im still eating something rather than nothing like i was. im not sure if i need to get help now before it gets to that point again or just see if maybe ill eat again. i have no energy to talk to anyone and i keep getting dizzy bc of my head. I need to get checked out I know, but im afraid of what I'll be told possibly. i don't wanna end up back in mental hospital again bc they'll probably have me on more meds and i dont want meds, im already a mess. I slowly giving up again😢

I don't know what's wrong with me😩. But I know people probably think I'm crazy, but I don't care. Let them think it. I know that I'm not, even though I feel like I am. I hate how hard it is to start eating normally again

hi Ashley. No one think that you’re crazy. I sure don’t. I’m sorry to hear that you’re going through this. This month I’ve not been eating and my anxiety is thru the roof. I’m “currently” not on anxiety or depression medication but think I need to call my doctor tomorrow. I went to the ER a few days ago for chest pain, took a heart stress test all came back with no problems. I think my anxiousness is starting to manifest physically. I’m going to call my psychiatrist tomorrow. I’m not happy about it but I need anti-anxiety relief before I end up without a job (and insurance). You said it here: you know that you need to get checked out. It’s OK to get checked out (even if you are scared of what you may be told). It will give you peace of mind either way. Your decision. Do what you feel that you need to do to be healthier. You have support here.

Hi Ashley! I definitely don't think you're crazy. We are all human, and we all struggle. When this happens we all need help. There is no shame in that. I agree with what Clare227 said. You know that you need to get checked out, even if you are scared. Please try to remember that fear is a LIAR. It will always try to keep you from getting the help you need. Also remember you said you were doing so good. You WILL get back to that place again. You are stronger than you think. You are special, you are loved, and we are here to support you!! Sending you courage, love, and warm hugs. You can do this...💞
