Am i an anorexic or do i have an eating disorder or something simialar?



i am sorta afraid to eat. i don't like to and i have unsuccesfully attempted to throw up my food. i turned the mirror around in my room so that it's facing the wall and i once lost 6 pounds in a day. does this make me anorexic

hmm. it looks like you're starting to become anorexic/bulimic. before you actually really get down to the point where you're about to die because of these eating disorders, why don't you go to the doctor and ask about it because this could turn into something really serious
you have an eating disorder you need help, what you described proves you have a misconception towards eating and it could probably lead it anorexia/bulimia, its best to try and get some counsellings now that you know it could be a problem what you are doing.
No

look up the symptoms.
There are lots of eating disorders, you have one.
I wish I didn't like to eat, everything tastes so yummy to me.
And yuck! who would want to throw up that makes your mouth feel so bad.
Get some help and get straightened out.
You need professional help ASAP.
Technically, no you are not anorexic. The definition for anorexia nervosa is "An eating disorder characterised a misperception of body image. Individuals with anorexia nervosa often believe they are overweight even when they are grossly underweight."

Not liking to eat, and losing 6 lbs in one day is very unhealthy. Most of the time, behaviors like this are attributed to a very poor body image. Please speak with someone you trust about this, or a doctor or therapist who can help you with your body image so you can stay healthy. There is a big difference between skinny and healthy. Hope that helps, take care of yourself!
well as for losing 6 pounds in a day, that happens to everyone, weight fluctuates. as far as being afraid to eat and trying to throw up, that is a bad sign. so, i'll try to shock back to normality (ur actually sick, nuthin to be ashamed of):
when ur anorexic, you GAIN weight, your internal organs ROT, your breath smells like dog poo, your sweat smells like cat pee, you become really HAIRY and PALE, you look like a praying mantis with chipmunk cheeks, and then, you DIE. harsh words. i hope you feel better. talk to ur doctor, there may be an underlying health issue

good luck
