So I have been struggling with body image and weight for a long time. I am a naturally small woman and many people have told me I need to gain weight and I want to because I think I would look better if I did but at the same time I cant imagine what I would look like with extra weight added and if I gain even an ounce I freak. I sometimes have my "good" days when I can eat and not feel guilty then I have the days when I eat and make myself throw up because I am ashamed. Although I have never been diagnosed with an eating disorder I wonder if maybe thats the path im heading down. I dont know. Its like an ongoing battle every single day and I dont know what to do anymore. I also struggle with severe depression which doesnt help the situation either. Any advice would be greatly appreciated Thanks!

    hi my first bit of advice is if you have a good doctor speak to them , as it sounds like you have some issues going on . The reason i say this i suffer from anorexia and terrible depression, also bpd. the ed is the worst ss i have no life just existence its terrible, i would hate for you to go down the full ed path, the quicker you can get help or speak to someone asap, if you want to pm me feel free x
