Get yourself help. I know that it's hard, and that it's hard to get to where you're not wanting to hide it and keep going, but you know what? You're posting here, so some part of you wants to avoid this relapse.

Have you actually been diagnosed as anorexic in the past? If so, how far in the past? And has your doctor mentioned your weight to you this time? If not, shame on them all.

Your school counselor said to see someone more qualified because eating disorders are the most complex of mental illnesses, and counselors are told to refer clients on to people who have specialized training in treating them. That's not her trying to avoid you, but trying to get you the best help.

Good luck. It is hard, but you can do it.
