I don't think I have an eating disorder, but every time I eat I feel guilty and I think about how fat I'll be and wish I could stop but I can't. I've considered starving myself, and purging, but I also convince myself not to.
When people touch me, I freak out because I'm scared they'll feel all the fat.
I'm not overweight, but when I go to the doctor and get weighed, it makes me feel bad about myself if I've gained any weight.
I'm scared other people will notice how fat I am.

I don't understand all this, and I want it to stop. How do I solve this problem before it actually becomes something serious?

It sounds like disordered eating lines of thinking. Do you have a therapist? It's so much better to get this taken care of before you may act on these thoughts.

Yeah, I've mentioned it, but the depression is more of our focus.

Helping the depression could help with the thoughts, too. You are aware of the disordered thoughts and that is great. It can get bad if you really didn't think that those thoughts were bad. Take care of yourself
Thanks for this!
