(I know a lot of you will tell me to go to the doctor, but like millions of other Americans, I am too poor for health insurance but not poor enough for medical aid.)
I am naturally skinny and I don't think I need to loose any weight. However I methodically starve myself, in turn making me skinnier. One reason is that I enjoy the feeling of having a really empty stomach and I hate the way my stomach feels after I eat. I also starve myself to feel like I am in control of my life. When I have a problem where there is nothing I can do to solve it, I starve myself.
Information about anorexia always talks about people starving themselves to loose weight. However, I dont necesarily want to loose weight. I just don't want to eat.
Is this still considered anorexia? Is there another name for the condition I have? I want to find out more information on starvation for emotional (not weight loss) reasons.
ok this is really silly. what i meant to write was, "but not to LOOSE weight"
sorry for the confusion
