Anorexia Nervosa Support Group

Hi I am in my late 20's and i have Anorexia. i have had it sents 2006. I am really struggling right now. My boyfriend and i broke up. and a friend passed away. and i just don't want to eat nothing sounds good. the real bad thing is ppl ask me what i have been eating. i sometimes eat one time a day.

It sounds like you've been through a lot recently. I'm sorry to hear about it all.

I think people ask what you're eating because they're worried about you and don't know how to help. I always hated when people would ask me what I was eating.

I really hope you find the support you need in this group. *hugs*

Hi, I know what you mean too, a lot of my friends now now about my anorexia and so does my family becasue i was in the hospital, anyways, they are always watching me and making me tell them exactly what I ate, its really fustarating because they dont see my effort or my struggle. for example, the other day I was about to eat my lunch but my sandwich got soggy and i already didnt want to eat so I threw it out, but i did eat that morning, anyways My friends freeked out. I feel sufficated, i cant stand it. I hope it will get easier for you. good luck

question ;

why do ppl want us to eat but only to tell us we can't eat something?

Like my weakness is nutty bars and popcorn. i honestly can not live with out my nutty bars.

Wow, who's telling you that? That isn't right.

Of course you can treat yourself to a nutty bar or popcorn sometimes - there isn't a THING wrong with that!! Indulging yourself sometimes is completely healthy.

my ex boyfriends brother is telling me that. to be honest i eat nutty bars everyday when i am doing good.
