This is a special new area for people who want to have a small, intimate place to discuss anorexia. It was born via the rather long comment section in an article here on this site about 10 activities that help with recovering from anorexia. I know there are other sites out there who are very good at helping people with anorexia talk to each other; Somethingfishy is the best example. I certainly don’t want to take away from sites like this; they’ve proven invaluable for people who are trying to overcome anorexia.
However, for those of you who want to stay here, I’d like to provide this space where you can talk.
Please be aware that this area is visible to anyone who cares to visit; if privacy is important to you, please use an alias.
This is a place of support and respect, a place for sharing your journey in recovering from anorexia. I will remove any comment that is disrespectful or unsupportive (and, of course, any and all spam).
So … go to it! And if you want to follow the conversation, please don’t forget to make sure you’re subscribing to the comments.
(Btw, if you’re interested to hear what has been written on this blog on anorexia so far, here is the list.)
Here are a few things you may want to start out with:
- Do you get enough support from people around you?
- How do you deal with the roller coaster of recovering from anorexia?
- Have you found a food plan that works for you?
- How do you feel with the feeling of self-loathing that sometimes come up?
- Do you have tips for finding (and staying with) the right therapist?
- How long have you been in recovery?
- What do you do when you can’t stop thinking about the food/weight?
PLEASE NOTE:
Due to the great success of this page, I have now created a new page on this site, to make the large comment/talk section a bit easier to manage. Please continue your discussion here.
(And another note: Any message on this page that seems even remotely like spam will be deleted. This is NOT a place to advertise.)
Melissa- Well done for trying new foods
that is exactly what i am doing right now, i am taking it slow 
ive tried Jammy Dodgers, and i am working on progressing to stuff like Ice Cream and Chocolate, even if it is just one square of chocolate it will be a step. I saved my easter eggs for when i feel ready and when i want to try chocolate that is what i am going to try
i kinda struggled with dinner tonight :/ Ana sometimes convinces you that you have a bigger plate of food than you usually do :/
sometimes i dont want to admit i am feeling it hard incase any of my family get annoyed and think i am just being stupid or irratating :S
anyway..one nice thing i have noticed loads of people are saying i look really nice
but you gotta try and ignore those thoughts:/
my papa was so happy he was like
” it is so nice to see nicola laughing again i know she can win “:)
and a man i know even said i look alot better and i havent seen him in ages,
but sometimes ana does convince you that you look fat
i really like it when people say that they are proud of you aswell and look up to you. dont you think it gives you a real boost?:)
xxxx
rynelle – REALLY!? i always think that its just me..well, i know that im not alone, but i didnt think that it was this common.. if i could ask you something..? are your scars well hidden? im struggling with that right now, and since i started last fall, i never had this problem before. but theyre all over my arms, because, well, i just couldnt control myself to wait and figure out the most…hideable location. so theyre all over my arms, and impossible to make an excuse.
also, i always want to eat spontaniously..like eating at the cafeteria. but i have a tip that helped me TREMENDOUSLY in stopping to count calories! im pretty amazed at how much it helped actually. well, i eat roughly 1800 calories a day. and i would strickly count 1700 calories. but that extra 100, i would eat something that i didnt know the amount of calories of..but i knew it was close to 100ish. so after a while, i expanded that 100, and lowered that 1700. it might not work for you, and it took ALOT of strenght, but it helped…and you get to try new foods that you never had before. hope it helps.
ilisa- i just wanna say I LOVE THE WAY YOU THINK BABE! lol, you make me laugh. and kissing actually burns alot of calories:P. your boyfriend will be happy bout that;)
melissa – i know exactly what you mean… i always eat peanut butter, and when i dont measure it, i always asume that what i ate was 500 calories, when it prob only equalled to 150..i love peanut butter
i always thought i was a binger. i would go into the kitchen, and eat and eat and eat, and it just wasnt enough. i couldnt get it into my mouth fast enough. id go from dry cereal, to cheese, to left overs in seconds. i never thought that it would of been over 1000 calories though.. that still happens to me now, and i dont purge. i wish i could..its just so easy. right now, i can be stuffed and really want to eat. and most times i eat tons even when im uncomftorbly full…
i feel like my depression is getting better. i can enjoy more things..and i think about death less. but there is something calliong me back. there is a little voice inside me saying you shouldnt be happy. you dont deserve to smile or laugh. and part of me wants to be back in my rooom crying and moping and planning out my death..instead of spending time with the family. theres something calling me back to grab that razor once again, and start counting calories more strickly. i dont know why i want to go back. but i feel like its me, and i have to do it.
ps. sorry for talking about cutting all the tiome on the site. i know that this is a anorexia site, and not a self injury site.
HOLY SHIT! THAT WAS A BIG POST…sorry
ryanelle- i think thats good, eat every four hours , the four hour rule. To be honest i eat something paractically every 2/3 hours cause i love snacking, and im not fat.
i know its hard to be spontaenous and not have a routine, but when u go out and stuff u shud take snacks with u, that u feel safe with, but that will give u energy.
Nicola- aww well done, focus on positive coments, u are getting better and taking big steps foward every bite is an achievment.
healthy and happy hun, rememver ur not defined by a number!

Hey guys.. haven’t talked here in a long while. I’ve just been stressed.. mom left for Japan, and she won’t be coming back for a few months. I’m just stuck with my dad, nobody to talk to really..
I just felt like complete shit today for no reason, really, and literally cried for the past hour.. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do, :/. It’s hard to eat the own advice I gave out in the past here.
And hi Rynelle. I’m not too much in the mood to post a big thing right now because I just feel sick… but I definitely saw your old posts… really nice to meet you, and welcome back.. you’re always welcome here.
Nature- heey (:, i hope you feel better soon, i know kinda how you feel a bit, when i go to stay at my dads house i dont really have anyone to talk to becausei dont know.. i odnt think he really fully understands, like he has never came to any of my clinic appoinments or asked if he can come and i dont see him that much :/, i mean i know he cares and i love him, but sometimes i think it would be nice for him to make a bit more of an effort yinno
ive got my weigh in 3 hours :S
x
i mean i have had bad and good times this week
but overall i think i have done well
trying new foods, balancing my food intake with any activity im doing, getting on with my friends better
so i hope my effort has pain off (yn), and then ill be alllowed to go out with my friends this week
xxx
nature- its ALWAYS hard with change, ur mums away and ur here with ur dad, of course its upsetting and u feel down. And this is the time when its so easy to look to food, but please try and keep the foood up, ask ur bf for some extra support?
also ull speak to ur mum on the fone and stuff, and maybe this can be a chance for u to try and speak to ur father a bit?
just try to eat every 4 hours, i know u feel rubbish but im sure after a little while ull get used to ur mum not being here, then get a new routine.
good luck, and keep us updated xx
nicola- gd luck with the weigh in! hope u REgain some weight xx
Nature sorry to hear your noot feeling as good. You got through this before, so you cant let it ruin you again. You were doin so well before and you were always there with advice for others, so just remember how good it feels when your strong and this thing isn’t taking over. And dont let it effect your eating!
And as you said, it is hard to eat your own advice. I’ve been feelin shit for no reason at times too. I probably cry everyday. And then I feel worse because I have no particular reason to be upset. But, it doesn’t effect my eating anymore. I Know this might sound stupid, but sometimes I think I wasn’t actually anorexic. As if I’m such a fraud. I dont know
!
I had to miss my therapy and weigh in today because I had my theory test( I failed
!!!). I hate therapy anywae but I always want to go so I can be weighed! I was hoping that its went down a bit this week! I know I shouldn’t want that but I cant help it. Or at least I like to make sure I’m not gaining anymore.
ly all x
kayla- sorry to hear about the theory test! dont worry ull pass the next time if it makes u feel any better, i failed my driving test 4 times! but i finally got it, so dont give up.
u are not a fraud, and u r not fat ! just try to maintain ur weight, and enjoy the good food around u. food isnt the enemy, ana is x
an urge to yell, to thrash, to scream at the world
for what it’s done to you, or what you’ve done to you
hollaring up at the gray skies, yet keeping your head looking at the ground
held back, as you try to break through
a crave to defeat, to prove, to show your strength
maybe, then you’ll be respected
the tears mean nothing, for why they appear
to meet the standards your expected
your questions, need to be answered, before you explode
when you lie on the floor, trying to solve the mess
that is unsolvable, unless you find the answer in yourself
its the only thing that can save you from this distress
Thank you so much guys for all the warm comments.
Aliyah, I don’t really even know if I miss my mom due to the rocky “relationship” we have with each other. Last time she went, I was actually happy for the period she was gone since I didn’t have to deal with her negativity (no screaming, yelling, hitting, slapping, etc).
Nicola, my mom has rarely come to my past clinic appointments. When we tried to have family sessions, she just walked out or didn’t come at all. It doesn’t feel good at all, and I understand what you mean.
Kayla, I totally get what you mean by the feeling of fraud. Everything seems just like a blur or a dream to me. Like it happened in a zoom and left me here, time passing by so slowly, that I’m so bored and empty. It just seems like a daze, and I can hardly believe what I went through, as well. So yeah, definitely I question myself if I really did have THAT much of a hard time.
Often times I find myself on really down or stressful days glamorizing anorexia. I say things like, “i want to be in control and really thin again”, “I was always the thinnest, I was the best at that!,” and “I was in complete control.” But all I have to do to remind myslef of how in pain and how insane and psychotic I was is to read my diary. Those entries are full of fear,m anger, and hate. I never want to go back to that.
Anytime you ever doublt how miserable or “bad” you were kayla and Nature, go back and read old diary entries. Then you will remeber and see how far you have come and how strong and in control you are!!!
Hope that helps!!
nature- welcome the break then, and dont use food to vent emotions. always seee food as the medicine, and try to push foward, keep fighting. like melissa said, u have come so far, being thin achieves nothing at all.
melissa- do u have fb/.
Yeah Melissa it does help lookin at my diary. It does make me realise how fried my head was :-s!
Aliyah, I hope I pass next time. I failed by 2 pointss on the hazard perception part. I hate it! Its so stupid! I can drive so why dont they just give me a licencee!! Aha, I cant wait to drive !!x
I spent nearly the whole day yesterday in my bed. Except when I was eating. I feel so lazy! And I’m still in my bed right now and I really dont want to get up. I hate the thought of needing to go through another day
. Doing things just to pass time. I wish I could have some drive and determination to do something with myself.I just feel so exhausted everyday, my body aches and I dont do anything unless I really force myself to. And it’s nothing to do with my weight or anything. I’m a healthy weight and I eat regularly. So I dont know whats wrong with me:(!
kayla- u will pass. maybe u shud go to doctor and see about the tiredness? i mean i had a friend who was always always soo tired, and the doctor put it down to lack of iron , but honestly it was starting to affect her, she wud sleep for like 14 hours! and eventually they found out she had hepatitis, and that makes u extremely tired.
not trying to worry you, butjust saying u never know if theres something else, or maybe something lacking ur diet, liek iron?
n dont worry ull pass next time, u were clearly sooo close !
xx
hey, got weighed, put on loads though
1.2 kg :O
it just feels alot but everyone was saying nicola look at it logically that regain happened over 2 weeks and it is probably just your body finally reacting because your weight hast altered for about a month now
i came home and cried though, i went straight into my bathroom sat on the floor and cried
i didnt really explain deeply to anyone the reason i thought it was better just letting it pass itself :/
you just feel you are gradually getting bigger and bigger and ana makes you feel so bad and guilty for that, and i (nicola) am really scared i revert back after seeing that big number on the chart, and im scared i will start getting more ana thoughts and habits coming back :O:(
so i am trying to think of ways i can ignore them, think me and my mum are going to a yoga class tonight, it might not be on though because it is our holidays, i hope it is though (yn)
ly xxx
nicola- hun that is not a lot at all! honestly it seems like it, but thats what i used to put on every 2 weeks, thats the aim, and thats so great u did it!
i want u to take a stap back, and think y r u recovering? ur doing it to regain ur weight, and thats what ur doing. over 2 weeks is normal aim in recovery so ur doing so so well.
also remember that weight also includes ur water weight too, and it will flunatuate slightly so dont let urself be defined by a number,
if its really hard maybe in future ones u shud not look or ask them not to tell u if uve gained or not so u dont feel bad. up to u hun xx

hello can someone help me please, my mum surffered from an eating disordor when she was preagant with me and neally lost me and ive beeing hating the way ive looked for about a year or maby 2 and ive been in hostiple 3 times beacuse i went on this pro ana website and this girl seid if you starve your self your be pretty and beautful and boys wont laugh at you and walk away they will wanna get to no you , i way 4 and half stone but i still feel fat , when i look i the mirror all i can see is a big lump of fat standing there, please can someone help me i wanna get better but i dont wanna eat, i hate wat i look like, im 12 years old by the way , i wish i looked as pretty as my mum , can someone help me please love capricee xxx
caprice-im so sorry to hear this I have had ED’s all my life, and i really think u need to consider recovery. Pro ana websites are false lies, u will not achieve anything by losing weight and the only thing that will happen is that u bring urself closer to death.
you need to adresss these issues , gain some self esteem and i would strongly reccomend you go to a doctor and maybe talk to ur mum?
by eating, u ar ejust REgaining back weight, and u will not ruin ur teenage years. honestly i ruined by teenage years by having an ED, and now i can move on.
People will love you for the real you, not a fake ED one.
all the best x
to please ,
i no how you feel , i wanna feel like a nomal person , but every time its dinner time or lunch time and i see my dad eating away at his big dinner i wanna eat mine but there is a devil in my head saying dont eat you dont need it lisen to ana she is your best freind she wont betray you like food and then the angels saying dont lisen to th edevil he is nasty eat you wont get fat just exersise and eat healthy but the devil allways win’s i hate it , ana has taken over me and its still in contol of my mum , my mum surfferd from anrexica for years and now its been 3 and half years and she still surffere’s from anrexica its horrible my dad says seeing me and my mum not eating and beeing sick all the time , i feel like i have no contol over food eny more , i hate it some days i wish i was dead beacuse i cant put up with the pain i go through everyday and its been about 2 years ive been surffering with the same thing, love caprice x
caprice- theres a way out of this mess…. recovery.
aliyah,
thank you so much for your help , my mum never lisends to the doctores they tell her she is really badly underweight but she never lisends to them , my dad hates it and i hate my self for wat ive got my self into , the doctores say she can never have any more children and she has been preagant lots of times but she lose’s the baby coz she dosent eat as much as she should , i hate what i look like , i look like a pig when i look in the mirror and i make my self sick so i dont put weight on coz there is a boy in my school witch i really like so i wanna be 3 and half stone not 4 and half stone . x hope you get better soon xxx
i just wanna be beautuful x
caprice- im sorry to hear about ur mum
sounds awful, but you need to see you are not going to gain anything from losing more weight. Look up the risks of anorexia, and u will see it can lead to death, and im sure u dont want to be infertile like ur mother.
i used ot make myself sick too, and its horrible it messes up ur metabolism, caprise i really think u shud consider recovery, what do u want to achieve in life? cause an ED will prevent you from it, and also boys are not attracted to stick thin girls , its about being urself , ur true natural self.
ur beautiful, i may not know u , but i have had very simiular thoughts and i learnt in recovery each and every single one is false.
i have thought about getting better but then i look at my self in the mirror and see the fat hanging off my body and i change my mind
x
thank you , your beauful to , ok ill speak to my mum when she feels a bit better she is really tired so she is still in bed , i allways have to help her get out of bed
its sad and horrible seeing my mum like the way she is , you are very kind and im glad ive found someone to talk to , thank you for talking your time lising to me xx
i wanna be a child minder x when im older
thank you so much for all your help
xxxx
Hi Caprice,
It’s awful to hear what both you and your mom are going through, ED’s are horrible illnesses and they consume so many lives.
Please listen to Aliyah, she knows what she’s talking about and gives incredibly good advice.
I am currently in recovery for my anorexia, which was all but gone to be honest with you… but now the thoughts have come back a little bit.
I understand how obsessed you can become with losing weight, but if you talk to all of us on here each and every one of us will tell you it’s not worth being like this. I’ve managed to gain a lot of weight back in recovery, and I actually love my body more than I ever have before. When you look in the mirror and think you are fat, it isn’t because you are fat, it’s your mind that makes you see yourself as fat. I felt fat a lot reccently, but my weight has been the same for months now – it was just my mind, my anorexic thoughts, that made me think I was fat. Something I have learned from here is “Feelings aren’t facts”. If you feel fat, it doesn’t mean you are.
You seem to be able to see how ill your mom is, but you don’t seem to have the same concern for your own health. The weight you are now is very unhealthy and if you’re not careful you will end up becoming very ill. Could you perhaps talk to your dad about wanted to get help? I got referred to a brilliant eating disorders clinic that helped me so much by going to my doctor who then contacted the clinic.
Aliyah is right again – Boys don’t like skinny girls. If you are too skinny you look ill, and boys don’t like that kind of look. You musn’t value yourself on the amount you weight – there is so much more to you than how much you weigh.
You’re so young and have your whole future ahead of you, you can get your life back and be able to eat normally.
x x x
hi lauren , thank you so much for you advice , could you give me a number for the clinic or address for the clinic please beacuse you to are right and i understand now that , the boy i like will like me for who i am not what i look like , what shape or size i am , its all coz of them pro ana sites that tell me im fat and only like skinny girls and say the scales are right and your fat and noone likes fat girls there ugly and you are to if you eat and i cry my self to sleep at night over what they say and i used to belive them , but now you lot have made me see the light to my futher and not getting heled back beacuse of pro ana and thank you everyone for your spourt you lot have given me
thank you for making me see sence and making me feel much better about my self , yes i do want help lauren coz i no now i am surffering from a problem that wont go away over night , yes please i would like some help thank you laurenn xxx 
x
im so glad i came on this website and spoke to you to beacuse you 2 have made me see sence for once in my life , you to are star’s
xxxx
Caprice, you are soo young. Your body is still growing and needs LOADS of nutrition!! Maybe you should try talking to your mum about it and try and get through it together. xx
Caprice – I am SO glad you want to get help =) The pro ana sites were also a large part of my ED and it’s hard to not believe what they say, but you are right, they’re all lies.
I live in England, and the clinic I went to was in Stafford. There is a hospital there called St. Georges where they have an eating disorders unit that gave me counselling. They also offered to give me family therapy, help me manage my anxiety issues and offered to get me an appointment to see a nutritionist, who would have helped me plan out meals and what food would be best for my body and mind.
However, the way I got into treatment was by going to my doctor… I’m not sure if you can just get in touch with the hospital. And if you don’t live in the U.K, you might have to look for counselling for eating disorders on the internet and make an appointment. I can give you web adresses for good recovery websites though =) http://www.b-eat.co.uk/Home
http://www.something-fishy.org/
Those are two that I visit a lot that I find helpful, but there are loads more that you can find if you type in “eating disorders recovery websites”.
Just one more thing, it would be a good idea if you could let one of your parents know that you want to get help, as it will be difficult to travel to appointments and to keep on track to recovery without support at home.
Good luck =)
We’re all here to give you support =)
x x x
caprice- everyone wll help you, but yu need to stay positive and try to eat what u can. food is ur medicine and ur not defined bya number!
amy- no no bingees are normal, totally normal. everyoe gets them now and then, do not worry and it wont make a difference to ur weight, because ur weight is stable. U know its ana thoughts, go out and have fun, dont sit in and let ana control ur mind.
prove her wrong, show her how strong u are and keep winning!
i get times where i ate absolutely tons, its just normal its part of life. for example the other day after dinner around 11pm i had abowl of cereal, pack of nuts, couple of biscuits and ice cream. just caus ei felt like it, and was in the mood for it. i didnt get fat, and neither will you x
thank you everyone for your tips , i do live in th e uk lauren , i live in havant , i have been talking to my mum about getting better and she wants to get better with me to , my mum is going to make an appointment for me to see someone who i can talk to , ive been trying to think possertive but thn i see a fat person i mean over weight person walk parst me shurving tons and tons of crap into there mouth and i keep thinking to my self i dont f****** wanna end up like that and then boys and girls call me fat at school and its horrible and my mum wont let me move schools coz she seid its a really good school and every thing i tell her wat they say she dosent belive me and says oh they wouldnt say that there nice girls and she hasnt been giving me any spourt at all
and i wont her to help me and she seid she will try to but she dosent belive that i can get through this coz she couldnt , ive lost half a stone and im 4 stone now coz i never feel like eating any more , its killing me all i wanna do is get better and be beauful is that to much to ask? 
x
i cant put up with ana takeing over my life any more its killing me and i no im gunna get really ill if i dont eat but its not that i dont want to eat its that i cant eat. x
x]
its not fair why does everything bad or horrible allways happen to me x
caprice- its good ur mum made that appt and i really hope you go and feel better. but ur mum is being quite neg saying she doesnt think u will get thru it, of course u will because if u want to get better, you will. motivation is the key, , youdont want to be like this ten years down the line, or 20. u want to have a nice life, and enjoy all parts and times of it.
ino its hard to eat, but make it easy for urself write down a little plan of what ur going to eat and just do it, take a deep breath and eat what u can, even just a few bites and slowly start to increase it as you get more comfortable with it.
so next time theres food infront of you, just close ur eyes open ur mouth and chew, its ur medicine and it iwll help u get better x
Hi.
.
I just really need some support right now
I go see a nurse every week for anorexia, and i am in recovery. I’m doing so much better than I was – I used to eat maybe 200 calories a day, now i’m back upto 3 square meals with snacks, which includes carbs…
But I just feel awful
Don’t get me wrong, in myself i feel more energetic etc
But I still just feel horrendous. I feel so fat, especially when compared to all of the girls I know…
It’s just so hard!
thanks for listening x
Hey Rose =)
It sounds like you’ve come a long way and you should be really proud of all you’ve achieved =D Well done!
I’ve been in recovery for a while now, and when I decided to get better and eat more, I felt SO ugly for a while too. But you really need to bear in mind that those thoughts are the eating disorder thoughts, they are NOT facts. I still sometimes have days when I feel fat, but I’ve maintained my weight for months now… this just proves that those ED thoughts are powerful, but they’re not true.
I know how hard it is, but try not to compare yourself to other girls. You are your own person, you are beautiful and unique =) It might be helpful to look in the mirror and focus on all your good qualities instead. I wrote mine in eyeliner on my mirror to remind me every day to focul on the good rather than the bad… you could put thing like “Creative” “Nice eyes” “Great smile” “Intelligent” “Adventuous” “Loyal” “Loving” and so on…
The thoughts get eaier to spot and ignore hun, you just gotta stick with it and never let them pull you down… I do, and I now have better body confidence than I ever had before.
Don’t judge your worth based on your weight – you are so much more than that!
x
hey. i dont really feel like writing a big thing right now..
i just wanna say im glad that new people are coming on this site and finding help, thats the hardest and first step.
ill try and help as much as i can. youre all beautiful<3
as for myself…i just feel kinda like i want to scream and hideaway. im like a zombie. i hate this, and i feel like a reject…:(
i also have a question. people tell me that weight is a number, and i shouldnt be defined by that.. well why is the only solution to seeing if im getting better to be weighed? i thought weight didnt matter and here are people telling me that i have to get weighed because its the only idication if im better or not
hi rose- congrats firstly on how far you have come, by eating 3 meals and snacks is a relaly big step foward. Recovery is about REgaining you weight, ur not gaining nay weight, and i am a recovered anorexic, and i am not fat at all. after a certain weight ur body weight stabalises and you just need yto eat a consistent amount of food.
u will gain so much by recovering it is hard to see during recovery sometimes but try to stay positive and keep busy, enagage in social activitues and try to enjoy teh foods ur eating.
keep fighting!x
Aliza – You NEED to be weighed in recovery because you need to reach a healthy weight so that you can function properly and be healthy. But it’s definately not the only indication that you’re recovering. I know that I’ve gotten better because I can SEE the differences in my personality – I can socialise, and I LIKE doing it, I can share food, I don’t feel the need to binge anymore or exercise, I’m not so hostile por negative, I enjoy eating… the list is endless.
You’re not defined by your weight, you need to keep track of it at the moment so that you can be healthy again =)
x
thanks, that’s really helped..
I love the mirror idea, writing the things you like, it’s great, i might actually do that!
I can’t help feeling just so stupid for letting all of this happen! It just doesn’t seem possible that I can ever get rid of these feelings…
i’ll just have to try my best I suppose.
thank you xx
