Re: Bulimia - May 30th 2012, 11:07 PM

Well, I've looked at BMI (I've heard this isn't always accurate), and it says I'm normal. I'm not skinny or thin, but not overweight either.

Right now it's 70 degrees and HOT outside, most are in shorts and tank tops, but it feels like no matter what, I'm still cold. My hands, especially, have been so cold lately, like ice. I have on a sweatshirt, two tank tops under that, sweatpants, knee-high fuzzy socks, gloves, and a hoodie but I'm still so cold. That's been the biggest things I've noticed, along with the mood changes. But the other physical change was every time I brush my hair (which is thick) a ton falls out. I've been really worried about it.

I don't feel unhealthy or underweight, I don't feel like I'm not getting all the nutrients I need, I'm just seeing all this happen and wondering if it may be bulimia or another type of eating disorder. It's been affecting me since a young age, I've always had self-esteem issues, but the self hatred has increased a lot. I always feel guilty, upset, and angry at myself when I do eat, and then I feel like I have to intensely exercise constantly. It feels like I'm always analyzing myself, constantly, and that this may be getting slightly out of hand.
