I'm glad that you're happy with school...what's happening at school that you're happy with:-6

I loved my art and science classes because I had terrific teachers. My art teacher always flirted with the young men in our class and encouraged us to draw pics of them and the science teacher always blew up things:wah::wah:

Most of us has felt this at some stage of our lives hon, dont feel alone in this.

You're obviously worrying about it to write about it here, has your sister not noticed anything?

Maybe it would be a good idea to speak to a school councellor about how you feel.

Seems to me, you've taken the right step in recognizing the fact that what you are doing is wrong.

Take care of yourself sweetpea. :-4

Sometimes we slip, sometimes we fall, but always remember to get back up again, learn from the experience and move on.

We are with you for you to grab onto when you slip or to help you up again if you fall..

hi skittles 2004 ...

You wrote: Fantasizing and dreaming of things that i shouldn't even be thinking. What's going on in my stupid mind!

Why all of a sudden do i not want to eat!

I know this is all childish but its what i have concluded. I have to be thinner

It's not just a want its a need. I exercise, eat a whole lot less and i am seeing results. It makes me feel sooo much better. What's wrong with me.

there's nothing wrong with you ... you're a young lady of 17 ... this so normal ...

however ¦ if you have some or all of the following symptoms ¦ you could be suffering from chronic depression ¦ or as it is now more fashionably known ... bi polar disorder ... don’t suffer in silence I beg you ¦ pulling the blankets over your head isn’t going to shut out the world ¦ you could end up dying to tell someone ¦

ask me ... i've been there and back ...

Skittles

Your describing Depression

Are you under some pressure ? peer pressure ?

If you feel your under Ana's thumb - get out, take a walk, join a group of your interest.

Please speak to a counselor at school with your concerns, before your eating habits turn into alot of trouble.

Please keep us updated

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and for some odd reason i am not seeing it!

Here's the deal kiddo. Think you're fat? Well, I don't just tip the scale, I could tip a semi trailor..:wah: You go see your doctor and I'll go see mine, we'll get sound medical advice and act like intelligent women about it -instead of a couple of Barbie wannabes, okay? There is nothing wrong with wanting to lose a few pounds. Every woman does it from time to time and listen to this - SO DO GUYS!!:D The trick is to keep your logical self stronger then the part of you that knows everyone is better, prettier, smarter, richer...then you are.

We all have days (and some of us even afternoons and evenings), when we walk past a mirror and wonder who let the neighbors dog into the house... that's not really a reflection of us kiddo. That's simply a reflection of the world around us... and it, not us, can be NOT so pretty sometimes.

Who the heck is ANA? An alter ego?:-2

Skittles your just getting more aware of yourself. As long as your getting healthy the correct way and not starving yourself or over execising, this is good. Exercise releases good endorphins which are a feel good factor and everyone feels good when they stop eating so much crap as it makes you think clearer and sleep better etc.

If you think you have a problem with it, go see a school councellor or chat to someone you trust before it escalates into a huge problem

Good luck Hun x:-4

Skittles sweets, it worries me to see a young girl call 'ana' her friend.



Please, please don't go down that road, see a counsellor, talk to friends, talk to us here but don't keep your worries inside.



Take care of yourself.:-4

Depending on how far this has gone, you might need some help with making things right. Hell we all need help sometimes. :-4 And yes, you are the one in control, don't let this illness change that. :-4

hmmm - why did i think this might be the answer to my question?:rolleyes:

can you have that and really recognize it? i thought one of the problems with that decease was an inability to see it in yourself?

i had friends in school who suffered from this and would be really concerned about other girls with the problem, but never themselves. this one girl who hit the toilets after every meal...and i mean immediately after, was so worried about another girl that she reported the other girls behavior to the nuns. Nuns thought she was doing one of those 'i have a friend' things to talk about herself and used the opportunity to call her parents in.

So, was this an adventure in creative writing? Nice little piece if it is. If it isn't and you are clinically diagnosed with this problem, you don't need to be wasting time on here anyway. You know who to call in either case.

What's wrong with you.. NOTHING, hun. Stop watching too much tv and looking at fake people on mags, hun. I mean.. I have seen some of them w/o makeup on. Some could be in a a scay movie and don't need any makeup.

Just be yourself, hun. This is what makes one beautiful to me. Not the fake ones. :)

P.S. It is a waste of time to dwell on looks when everyone's looks will fade anyway, am I right, hun? You know I am. :)

A human being is so much more than her looks. She has a spirit, a soul, a heart. Have you ever seen a beautiful old woman. I have....many times. She has wrinkles all over her face, she walks kind of stooped, her hands are rough. But her smile....and her eyes. So beautiful!

Your thoughts of self-doubt are normal.....you are still maturing. Instead of looking inward..........look outward. Reach outward.

You know, there is a really great group of people here to be so concerned. This is Internet, and Skittles there are a bunch of people who are so caring to really care. Take care of you, and don't forget about your cyber friends that really care about you.
