I am confussed if I have an eating disorder or not?

I am not more so afraid of food (gaining weight...because i dont really gain...)
but more so eating infront of people and having my stumach expand. I am VERY thin and I bloat very easily and my stumach tends to expand so I don't eat before during or after school if I am going somewhere I am not afraid to eat alot when I am at home and not planning to go anywhere but I dont want to go anywhere when I have eaten alot because i feel fat. 0.0 sorry if this doesnt make any sence.

No, that's not a disorder, but it is overreacting :P No one is going to notice your stomach expanding just because you ate lunch. Lighten up (no pun intended), and eat if you're hungry :)

No. People with eating disorders are in denial that anything is wrong. Just because you're afraid of gaining weight doesn't mean anything. It's just a phase.

i think its just in your head i dont see why skinny girls think they are fat its so wierd

how olf are you check for throif problems or hormonal imbalane. see a chinese herbal therapist which is very good. also can try acupunture www. acupunture .com good luck

Don't worry....you aren't fat even though you feel like it. Like the first answerer said........just a phase...don't listen to anyone if they say any mean stuff about you.Ignore them. Don't feel like you're fat cause......you're not....

Yes, I think you do have the makings of an eating disorder, though it is hard to tell on here.

Go to your Dr, and explain what you have said here. He may be able to refer you onto someone who can help you confront some of your social/food issues.

Dr P

If you bloat enough after eating that it is visible, you either are eating something that does not agree with you, or you are eating to excess. If you have such an easy time of not gaining weight, why do you think that what you do eat shows so readily?

A compulsion about not eating in front of people is a warning sign of an eating disorder, and not eating the entire schoolday because you are concerned with your appearance is definitely something to talk about with a professional- talk to your doctor if this 'bloating' is really lasting 8 hours, and talk with a psychiatrist if the doctor can't find a cause.

Be safe, and good luck.

I use to do that aswell....And unfortunately I had a eating disorder, mine actually started out that way. Where i was very conscious about the way my stomach would bloat when i ate that I just stopped eating. If I was you I would try and start eating throughout the day but maybe stay away from things that made you bloat or try eating smaller but more frequent meals. Trust me its not fun to have an eating disorder or have to constantly check to see if your stomach is bloated/fat or not. Good luck!!
