what did u add?

I am sorry to hear about PTSD -- it's a condition that needs early psychological intervention for decent outcomes and obviously it developed sometime ago now. So, to answer your question on weight loss -- exercising not too late in the day should actually help with some of the sleep issues. If your schedule can allow for lunch/early afternoon workout that would be best. Our immune systems are temporarily compromised by aerobic workouts....

It's a bit like saying 'so what if my hair fell out... never liked it and anyway I can wear a wig?' ... When menstruation stops in a what should be a healthy young woman it means there's something wrong physically.  Could be that they're too thin, under stress, over-exercising, sick in some respect... takes a doctor to work out what's wrong exactly, but there is something wrong with...

chrissy gave a fantastic response. all i can add is it will get easier , ive had anorexia for 14 years , but its only the last 18months ive been actively in recovery , i felt exactly the same as you , the more weight i restore the more clearer everything becomes and you realise yes its hard but it is worth fighting for , when you restore weight you are feeding your mind as well alot of the irrational thinking does get better it has for me ....

I am a weight restored anorexia SURVIVOR...i say survivor because this disease can kill you. It is vital to be treated and to get well, and it's serious. I suffered for about 2 years I believe and I realized that my low weight wasn't causing me any sense of relief from the pain in my life. I HATED my body, felt ashamed of the whispers about the girl with the eating disorder...ME. i HATED myself and because of that i didn't want...

Original Post by vanilla_swirl : What I'm gonna say will be rude. So beware. You writing an essay about anorexia is very, very hypocritical. Why? Because you are making threads like '' Oh is this too little cals, because I have burned X cals and blahbla'' 'and posting replies like ''what you're doing isn't healthy, you don't need to lose weight'', while you are doing the same...

That is a possibility, although most people I know who lost their period during their teens (even early teens) was eventually able to get their period back. I got my period back at a BMI of 21.5, it is quite common to need to be at a higher weight than the weight you lost your period at in order to kick your reproductive system back into action. So just consider that even though you may be a healthy weight, you might need to gain more before...

Your user pic says that it was taken recently, halloween. You are already quite thin, why do you want to lose weight, because it sure doesnt look like you need to. What is your daily intake like, what do you eat for breakfast, lunch, tea? DO you have snacks??
