Lately i have been very self conscious :(?!
Question: Lately i have been very self conscious :(.?
Ok so all my life i have been really skinny but i DO EAT and having been trying to eat more food. i would be classified as underweight on BMI.
Everyone throughout my life has teased me since i was 3 years old and now i am 20 saying that i am anorexic. So i went to the doctor and he did tests and confirmed that nothing is wrong with me, i just had a fast metabolism.
so then as i turned 18 i started to think oh well theres nothing i can do but eat and ignore everone.
Just yesterday i went babysitting and the young boy said to me that he HATED me and not to talk to him. i asked why and he said because you are too skinny. I was at work on friday and the lady said oh she has anorexia she can take my some of my fat. I go shopping and people look at me.
I dont know what to do bc these comments really hurt my feelings and i am getting really scared just to go out bc people will say stuff..
Any body please tell me what i should do to stop taking these nasty comments to heart.?Health Question & Answer

I am only eleven years old and i have the same problem. I eat more than my dad and he eats good sized meals. I have a fast under metabolism like my mom. I weighed under 60 pounds until i was nine. i just recently started gaining a few pounds. i mean im like 4'11'' and turning twelve next month and i only weigh 77 pounds. people tell me and me mom that we need to eat more but if they took us out to dinner, they would never say that again. so i know how you feel and if you eat normal, than most people would say that you r so lucky to be skinny but when you cant gain weight no one knows how you feel exept for people like us. if someone tells you anything then tell them that you eat normal, they shouldn't worry about you because your perfectly fine the way you are, and that's there problem if they have a problem with your weight because like i said, we are perfectly fine and if they call us anorexic or tell us we don't eat, then that's there problem and i know it can be hard but just ignore them...... Hope i helped hugs and kisses and lots of luck..... :)Health Question & Answer
Just ignore people. Stuff your face as you please because no one knows that you're medically healthy as you have already found out for yourself. If you really want to stop hearing it, do a little exercising and build a little muscle to fill you out just a tad.Health Question & Answer
Awww =[
Well I would just suggest eating more carbs, since those are pretty fattening and all. Eat a lot of HEALTHY food.
Don't force yourself to eat if you don't want to or anything.
Good luck.

Ignore and tell yourself that you are beautiful. These people do not know who you truly are. You can control how you react to these comments and the reaction is let it go. You know who you are

I'm really thin too, like extremely and I'm just 13. I have an extremely fast metabolism too and I hate it when people say your so skinny and guys reject me because of this. When I was in the 6th grade, I was depressed because I had a 4th grader tell me EVERYDAY, "You have skinny legs," "You have chicken legs," "You're so skinny...." "I just want to give you some of my fat," It really used to hurt my feelings and I used to cry.... a lot. During the summer last year, I began to fill out a bit but I'm still really thin but I don't seem to get those comments as often. I'm still really thin but trust me, you'll fill out... even if you are a bit older. Most people who give you those comments are jealous, believe me because even though I'm younger than you, I've been there. If the doctor says your fine, believe him. Don't try to gain weight, because it'll just make you fell lazy and stuff. Just tell yourself you're beautiful the way you are and I bet you are.

People just don't understand what Anorexia is. You don't starve yourself, and because you are naturally skinny with a fast metabolism, people will assume things.
I'll tell you right now that I'm jealous. I have a fast metabolism too, but I eat a lot of junk food, so I end up chunky. :[
Ah well.
I would try to research self-confidence. That's all you need to work on. Know that you're beautiful, get a make-over, try a new hairstyle. Anything!
Do something drastic or wear flattering clothes. You can make yourself appear less skinny by wearing certain types of clothing.
Good luck. I hope I helped. I know eating more just won't make your bigger, it'll only give you an eating disorder. Health Question & Answer

People call me anorexic all the time and I'm 5'6 and 120 pounds. They make jokes and blah, blah, blah. Just brush it off. I mean people are fat *** douche bags. Like I was walking pass this group of guys and they said "I couldn't sleep with her because I need more cushion for the pushing" and I said "Well if I did have the cushion I sure as hell wouldn't want that thin, little pin of yours pricking it." I mean honestly, the audacity of some people.
We can make the "people who people think are anorexic but really aren't but the people who think they are, are fat asses and douches bags so they say it anyway" club.
But seriously, be happy being who you are as long as you are healthy. People are cruel, it's just human nature. They will talk about you no matter what so just say whatever and keep going on with your day.
By the by, if you are taller than 5'7 you should think about modeling. That will show them ;) Kick ***!Health Question & Answer
