Am i anorexic?


Question:
I eat, but whenever i do, i get sick!. ANd losse weight like crazy.

Answers:
Those symptoms alone would not diagnose you as anorexic. Strictly speaking, Anorexia is an eating disorder where people starve themselves. You pointed out that you do actually eat. Bullemia is a condition when a person will eat, but then make themself sick. Often they eat unusual amounts of food and odd times, and then intentionally make themself sick. This behavior is called "binging and purging". Obviously both starving yourself or binging and purging are extreme risks to your health.

In your circumstance, I'd suggest seeing a doctor. Based on your very brief description, it sounds like something else is going on. Anorexia is a behavioral condition that cannot be "caught" like a virus.
