Not eating...

Do you dance or act? Because both of those activities usually bring up the subject of weight and body image, so I would put my money on this being one of the sources of your problems.

>>>>>I dont like childline, they start asking personal questions
**oh c'mon, of course they are gonna ask personal questions, as its usually personal stuff that people are depressed about. So from your answer to everyones posts, i guess you're not going to do anything about how you feel............right? **

Good job, I'm glad to hear that you're trying to at least eat a little. Once again though, have you tried going to the doctor yet? If it does stem from a thyroid problem, then that's something you need to get checked. I've had the same thing checked since it runs in my family, it's no big deal and easy to correct with medication. The only big deal is in not knowing whether you have a low thyroid (or whatever else it could be) and not getting it checked, since you won't know the source of your problems.

I know this threads a bit old but I felt I should reply as I had a similar problem. This may not even be linked to your depression in any way of your self image. I felt sick constantly and when I could bring myself to eat any food it wold make me feel sicker. I went to a doctor about the problem and he perscribed some pills I took for my stomache, after 3 days I was back to eating again and felt alot better then once off the meds I didnt feel sick anymore. It came back for a while a few months after and then went. You could be getting fatter from actualy not eating. When you dont eat your body retains what little food you do eat as it thinks "hey I may not get fed for a while so better stock up what little food I do get". Once youre eating healthly and 3 meats a day if youre eating stuff thats good for you you will most likly loose the weight. If you want I can send you the name of the pills I was perscribed as it sounds exatly like what I had.You probrably havnt gained much weight but low self image can decieve you. Sometimes you will think you have lost weight and look great and somtimes you will feel fat as hell. In relality you arent loosing or gaining weight just your self perception is altered by how you feel.I dont think youre anorexic I think people are over reacting here. Anorexic people dont feel sick when they eat they just dont eat because they feel to fat to, by the sounds of this you want to be able to eat again and are worried not eatings some how making you fat.Anyway if you havnt seen a doctor already do it and tell him about your loss of appitite, you dont even need to mention your depression or anything else as chances are its unrelated.
