I'm sorry to hear you're in the grip of "Ana the Dictator" and YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I try to remember that eating some nutrients is actually a faster way to lose weight because your Base Metabolic Rate drops like a rock when starving. That's not supposed to be a weight loss tip, it's a suggestion for you to eat instead of starving.

As for the depression and excerise, I can totally relate to the inability to function normally. I know I obsess over my death when I'm depressed and little else coupled with no motivation to do anything but punish myself.
