I think I might be anorexic...

I'm constantly worried about my weight, controlling how much I eat, restricting what I eat, having a small appetite, and when I'm home alone, I make myself throw up.

I'm a 16-year-old boy, around 182 cm and 55 kg [I've lost 1 kg since my last post], so I'm pretty skinny already, but I just feel so fat. My current goal weight is 50 kg, but my ultimate goal weight is 45 kg.

I just want to be happy in my own body...

Continuing on this path will make you more miserable in the long run. I’m 27 but was in your position starting at the age of 11. You’ll never be happy, you’ll never be thin enough. All I have to show for it are aching bones (lack of calcium during puberty) and terrible teeth. Some people end up worse, most start passing in their late 20’s or early 30’s at the oldest. It catches up with you fast. I remember feeling like an elderly woman when I was 17.

Anyway, you’re better off working in the trauma/issues that put you in this position in the first place. End it before it steals more of your life.

I dont know that my words will help but, any body type is beatiful/handsome. Wanting to lose weight is normal, so is not feeling happy in your own body. Idk that my words will help but, your amazing just the way you are. <3
