Nobody believes me and im losing friends because of my anorexia which i dont think i have but now i dont know what to say to them when i am at the doctors do you know what i should?
Be honest with everyone. Even if you don't think you have a problem or have anorexia, you may actually have it and not realize it. Or you may have some signs that could lead to the development of another more serious problem or eating disorder like anorexia. Find people who you can trust and who support you. Those are the ones who you want to be friends with. Try therapy sessions, in case you feel yourself depressed. Support groups are great for making new and more supportive friends, too. Let the doctors do what they do best and let them make an expert medical diagnosis.
