I mean, I'm not sure. It's weird cause I never thought i might have a problem until my mom brought it up this morning. Well, it use to be where I would eat 2-3 meals a day depnding on how much food we had in our house, but now it's different. On few days do i eat up to two meals and even if i do they are very small. I find myself eating less and less every day. Like on sunday, all I ate was a bag of chips when normally I would have eaten a donut at church, eaten two bowls of soup at home, then eaten dinner with my friends. However, on the days when I actually eat a full meal, i tend to get two-three times as much as I should get. Also, another thing that occured to me is that I have almost made it a contest to see how long I could go without food. I don't think about anything dangerous, I'm just like, "Ok, if I can go two hours longer then I will beat my record." So now I have gone for like 2 days without food. Is this an eating disorder or part of one or what?

you seem to be displaying some disordered eating patterns, although i'm not sure if you would meet the criteria for an eating disorder. usally that involves a whole mixed-up web of thoughts that go along with the behavior...particularly low self-esteem, distorted body image, and fear of getting fat. if you can, try to eat a little more consistently so that hopefully you don't slip into something more dangerous. take care.
