I'm curious...
Is it an eating disorder, if you just aren't hungry, and your loosing a lot of weight, and also have depression and crohn's against you? I'm loosing weight this past month... and this isn't my first time without trying, nor without forcing myself to do anything to not eat or to get rid of the food... But... a lot of people are making accusations.. and so i'm curious if they are right or if they are wrong.. I think i look fat.. but i wouldn't sacrifice food for it.. as i kinda like the taste of food. lol... But I a lot of weight in one month.. this past month.. and now its like.. certain areas of my body i look like a walking stick... (lower arms and wrists and hands, and chest area, and such...) I dont really know what to say... I"m not forcing myself to not eat.. i'm just not hungry... usually when i do eat lately, its cause i'm actually forcing myself to eat it... cause i am not hungry at all.. I dont really get it.. and dont know really what to think about what everyone else is thinking and saying, and trying to send me into a hospital just for that.. I mean i could see if they sent me in for depression.. but honestly, if they are going to send me in for something, it needs to be something thats true.. so... is this true?  does anyone else think that i do? or does any one think i dont? The only time i really gained weight was when I was on steriods through my life, which was repeated quite often through my life.. but i was always underweight as a child.. even when i was born, i was underweight and 3 weeks late. I also have Williams syndrome so that also acounts towards the just being smaller than the rest of my family, and not able to gain weight easily (Without being on steriods or certian anti depressant meds). I also keep getting the diagnoses of "Adult failure to thrive" and "severely malnourished" and have been placed even in the CDU over it once... I just don't really understand this... and now i'm kinda scared that i'm going to be placed inpatient unwillingly when it's not even something that i feel is true. also i've grown scared within the past few days of the fact that i'm not hungry, and i know i need food to survive... and well.. if i dont eat... i dont get what i need to survive.. and I WANT TO SURVIVE! ... The past two days, I've gotten 2 slices of pizza down which took effort.. it didn't even taste good to me.. i dont really know why either.. i normally LOVE pizza...

it does sound like an eating disorder (to me) and I get the feeling you're wanting someone to tell you it's not. it's probably your depression issues causing it. do you have a therapist? I'm going to suggest what a lot of people say, print this out and show it to your therapist or doctor. they are the true professionals that can diagnose/help you...hugs.

*hugs* thanks.
Yeah, i kinda do want to hear that it's not. but i want to also hear the honest opinons of people. And I want the honesty more so than i want to hear that it's not (unless being "its not" is their honest opinon). I do have a T. But i dont know if i will have contact with her until 2 weeks from now.. or... well.. a week and some odd days from now.
