I am an 18 year old college student and I have been battling various eating disorders for about 2 years. At first it was anorexia, then I adopted some binge eating habits which I supplemented with purging. I am trying to eat normally now, or at least in the 1300-1500 calorie range, but my guilt is driving me crazy. I jump between eating around 300 calories a day to eating 2000 and purging. I hate myself when I eat and I hate myself when I don't eat. I don't know what to do. I have been between 140 and 120 pounds for the past 2 years and I am like, 3 weeks late to have my period this month and I have a feeling it has to do with my eating habits. I guess I could be called EDNOS, but that is just a diagnosis, not help, which I now is what I need. Even just someone to talk to. Please.

Hi Camille,

I'm new to this site, and while I have some health and Biology education, I'm no expert. But I'm hear to listen. So, when you crave food, is it because you have a body image of being too slim? Or is it more of an overwhelming appetite? You say you're between 120 and 140, how tall are you?

Don't feel you have to only answer my questions; if you want go ahead and say everything you'd like, I'm listening. Anyway, just remember, you're not alone, and I'll be waiting for your reply, hope to hear from you soon Smile

I ate 1300 to 1500 calories intill now, my nutritionist wants me to have 2000... I still wasn't eating enough to even maintain my weight.
You said you bing after 2000, mabey this is the right amount... eating 300 calories... bad bad bad. Exclamation
