Good luck to you. You can get through this and come out a winner. You are obviously a strong young woman and just need a bit of help getting to where you feel great about yourself. We're all pulling for you. Be totally honest with your doctors. Don't say something just because you think it's what they want to hear. And hang in there.

Well. Went to the therapist. No frickin help at all. I'm too shy to even talk about my weight issues, and plus when I do talk about it I'll start crying because all I wanna do is be skinny. I can't even talk about my problems. I hide everything from my therapist. I even lie to her. I'm too afraid of sounding pathetic or being hated, and I'm too afraid of the outcome.

I've got no motivation left. I've gained 6 or 8 pounds, I've been eating nothing but crap for 2 weeks or more. I'm such a failure. I've ruined everything. Nothing can be fixed.

Not in time for my continuation ceremony at least. Not to mention my trip to Pennsylvania. Everything's ruined.

I had to see my therapist several times before i could truly open up to her and then i loved going to my sessions and having someone i could truly talk to. please take the medications your doctor prescribed (although im surprised anti depressants were prescribed to a 13 year old...)

you will be ok!!! this is just a temporary set back....and i think once you clear your head abit....it will help your journey to good health a ton more :-)

If you can't handle telling her aloud then write it down and give it to her or keep a journal for a week about how you are feeling including the things you dont tell her and give it to her to read.

I agree with the journal.

If you lie to her and don't tell her the problem, then she can't help you. If it's to hard to tell her the truth, can you at least tell her that you lied last time and you are scared to talk about the problem?

Are we being scammed?

I'm positive we are, but you all are nicer posters than me. This is not the kind of weight site teens looking for validation on disordered thinking go for advice, it would be far more unusual than not to draw that demographic. That, plus the rash of new 'posters' all fitting a similar pattern? If this isn't a troll, it's a teen doing a solid impression of one.

Hence my stepping out earlier ;)
