Food fight

 

 

Dear Suzie,

I think I might have an eating disorder. I've never eaten very much, or very healthily, but for the past year I've been eating less and less. Even though I am hungry and think about food a lot, I find eating in front of people really disgusting. Seeing other people putting food into their mouths really makes me feel ill and puts me off.

Suzie's answer

it certainly sounds as it you have some difficulty around food and I think you need, and deserve, some support. I suggest you talk to your own doctor about it, and confide in someone you trust. If that feels hard and you'd rather start off not having to speak with someone face to face, call the youth helpline of b-eat, the Eating Disorder Association, on 0845 634 7650 or email them on fyp@b-eat.co.uk
