Hi Amber,
You may be anorexic and it would be a good idea to go and see your doctor or if in school - a counsellor there or if you can access a therapist (this where the GP may be able to help too).
I had a friend who went through exactly the same thing as you.
She used to count calories every day and was always trying to be thin.
But found out that food was not the real issue. She was unhappy in certain areas of her life .....and instead of trying to resolve these or talk to someone about these problems, she pushed them to the back-burner. Instead she became anorexic because the only thing she could control was her food intake!
Not saying you are the same...but is there some other niggling issue in your life that is bothering you.?
Maybe you can talk to your doctor about this.?
You say that you feel more worse after dieting and this shows that deep down you do not really want to do this.
So stop being hard on yourself, quit the guilt and stop punishing yourself for no reason at all!
You deserve to eat when you are hungry and you need to eat to stay healthy!
You body is like a machine and it needs fuel - that is food,
Think of it in this practical way, if it helps.
The more healthier you are - the more you can do for yourself and for others. Remember this.
Plus, all humans are of different shapes and sizes, this makes us UNIQUE....you do not need to be thin, YOU JUST NEED TO BE YOU!
THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH!
Sorrry I can't be of much help...but just know that we all care for you, want you to be happy and to get some help for yourself!
Hang in there and work on it!!
Blessings - Eagle :))))
