to be posting this, but I need to tell someone this...I think I have some sort of eating disorder. I eat mostly all healthy food, and when I do eat, I cut my food into tiny pieces so that it looks like there is a lot there and then I never eat it all. Sometimes I go without eating. I am always feeling guilty or whatnot when I do eat, like I did something wrong and am ashamed to look in the mirror because I see a fat person staring me in the face...I only weigh 104 pounds, but am always exercising and trying to lose more. I keep hearing in my head that food is the enemy and I could never be skinny enough...I know that I should go see a doctor, but I am afraid. I haven't really told anyone that I actually know because I am afraid of how they will react and the fact that I have to face them everyday would make me even more ashamed than I already am...I just don't know what to do because I know what I am doing is so not healthy, yet I can't seem to stop...Thank you for listening...

There is nothing to be ashamed of. No one in this world is perfect. We all have our faults. If you do have an eating disorder, it could permanently damage your body, or worse...kill you. For your own health, please do go see a doctor. Doctor's are sworn to an oath. Since you are an adult, what you discuss with him/her should stay between you and him/her. If you don't want anyone to know, then they don't have to know. However, it would be good if you have a friend or family member who would support you through it.
And remember, we will always support you here! We are a big family here, and you are part of it.
