i'm not starving myself!

Hi. It seems as if you may be ready for an honest answer, because of your question, so here goes. IT IS NOT NORMAL TO NOT EAT, OVERWORK YOURSELF, GET DIZZY, FAINT, ETC, FROM NOT EATING! People who are normal do not do this to themselves. SO - decide if you want to be normal - that was a decision I had to make with a different issue - and then go from there. If youi decide you would prefer to be more normal than you are, then you are ready to take certain steps. 1st - NOT EATING. This is not normal. To me, this signifies a problem. 2nd - Overworking yourself - this is possibly normal, but I would see what a little eating and laziness do for you. 3rd - getting dizzy and fainting from not eating - this isn't normal either. A human body needs calories (from fat, carbohydrates, or protein) to live and thrive. Since you are getting dizzy and fainting, that means low blood glucose (sugar). So, when you feel this way, eat a saltine. It has only a few calories, and it has good glucose for your blood. Eat an orange, even better, but this will burn faster than the saltine, so you may want to eat both. Or, for a really good plan, if you feel faint or dizzy, I would drink a glass of orange juice and swallow a teaspoon of peanut butter. So, you get your fast acting glucose, and your longer lasting protein, and then you are at least feeding your body something. Don't kill yourself by starvation. That is a miserable way to go.

YOU ARE WAYYY TOO SKINNY


DO NOT LOSE WEIGHT!


what is it worth being paper thin if you will wreck your life forever?! dont go down that doad!

talk to a doctor or trusted adult
