Answer #1

These are definitely signs of anorexia. I think that you need to talk someone about this. I would start with your parents. Anorexia is a very serious disease that many young girls suffer from so you are not alone. Get some help and know that you are beautiful!

Answer #2

You sure sound like you’re anorexic. Please talk to someone about this so you can get the help you need. Anorexia can and will kill you. You NEED food to survive.

Answer #3

If youre not really eating, but then binging, you may have binging disorder. Its different from anorexia because at a certain point you give up and rage the kitchen and eat as much as you can, and then feel guilty afterwards so you starve yourself. It repeats in a viscious circle. Im not sure which it is from your description but the only way to treat a eating disorder is to talk to family members about it and possibly see a phychicatrist.
